Pros and cons

According to our solid state drive (SSD) expert

This 2.5-inch SSD is suitable for laptops and desktops.
Thanks to the hardware encryption, your files are extra protected and it keeps unwanted visitors out.
The drive is energy-efficient, so you can use it a little bit longer with your laptop on a full charge.
A SATA cable to connect the SSD to the desktop computer it's placed in, isn't included.

Description

Note: this 2.5-inch SSD has a SATA interface and only works if your system supports SATA. Check this in the manual of your laptop or motherboard.

The Crucial MX500 1TB 2.5-inch is an internal SSD that lets you expand the storage capacity of your laptop. The SSD is more energy-efficient than the MX300 series, thanks to the 64-layer 3D NAND technology. Your laptop will last longer with 1 battery charge. This drive reads at 560MB/s, which is 30MB/s faster than the MX300 SSDs when accessing large files, such as movies and graphic design projects. A video of 2GB takes 4 seconds. The AES 256-bit hardware encryption protects your movie collection, holiday pictures, and study or work documents against hackers and data theft. The automatic error correction and recovery in case of power loss additionally ensure that your files will be saved and unharmed in case the power suddenly fails.

Review is 9,5 out of 10.

Fast, cheap but good quality.

Fast
Comfortable
Good layout
Crucial Storage Executive to update firmware does not work well under Windows 11 and not in Linux anyway.

Like so many SSDs, firmware updates are always problematic. Both in Windows 11 and 10, the update tool doesn't work properly and I can't update the firmware.

The disc itself is also very good and fast.

Great upgrade for the PS4

Easy to install in the PS4
Makes gaming a lot faster
Lots of room for new games

This drive used to upgrade the PS4. It gives a lot of space for new games. In addition, it makes your PS4 a lot faster than with the original disc. It will take a while to install after that. After that you have to restore the backup and that also took about an hour and a half. Yet it is all together in an afternoon so fixed and most of the time you can do other things.
