Low cost per gigabyte, Excellent performance for a SATA SSD, Available in 2.5-inch or M.2 SATA versions, Capacity options from 250GB to 2TB, Long warranty,
Endurance rating low for usage cases involving heavy data writes
An aggressively priced SATA SSD, the Crucial MX500 still manages swift read and write speeds, making it a very good value for upgrading a mainstream laptop or desktop PC...
Build Quality / Durability (180TB TBW / 1.8 Million Hours MTBF), Very Good Performance, Features (NANDXtend / Static Data Refresh / SLC Caching / DevSleep/ eDrive Support), Crucial Storage Executive Software, 5 Year Warranty, Price,
Small Performance Increase Compared To The BX300 Line, High Temperatures (Performance Throttling), Performance (Compared To NVMe Drives),
As you can all easily tell from our charts the MX500 500GB M.2 variant performs more or less the same as its SATA brother (they actually exchange punches a lot with the M.2 variant coming up ontop in most tests). Still much like most M.2 driv...

With that said, the minor write throttling hasn't changed our minds about the MX500. Now that it is finally available in an M.2 form factor and now that we have tested it in a 500GB capacity, we can definitely say that it is still one of the best values i...

It is funny how the mind works. A 2.5" regular SSD showing the perf numbers we've seen today, would be considered fast. However, on M.2, that same result set all of the sudden feels, or seems, slow? Weird huh? Yeah, an M2 SSD at these read/write levels is...
Available in 250GB, 500GB, 1TB and 2TB capacities, Silicon Motion SM2258 controller, Micron 64-layer 3D TLC NAND, Good sequential and random read and write performance, Dynamic Write Acceleration, Data Defense and RAIN technologies, AES 256-bit full disk
