Review on πŸ’Ύ Crucial MX300 750GB SATA 2.5" Internal SSD - CT750MX300SSD1 by Agata Kubica ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good value for money, I recommend.

Despite all the disadvantages of a solid ssd, unlike very budget models, you are not afraid that you will die at any moment + 1.5 times higher random reading speed than the cheapest models. The read / write speed will also be higher, but objectively you will not notice this because when copying, you will run into the speed of the hdd / flash drive. Still, for ssd, the main thing is the speed of random reading. And the speed of random reading / durability is almost Samsung's, Samsung's is a little bit higher. The picture shows a comparison with hdd.

Pros
  • A good middle peasant among ssds, in terms of speed it is quite a bit inferior to Samsung Evo, which costs a third more. I will say this, among SATA 3 6gb / s, 90-95% of speed is squeezed out of this ssd. Unlike cheaper models, it stably keeps high speed when copying even large files, more than 2-3GB, while at cheap speeds they can fall below hdd speeds. A completely different question is who needs it, because if you copy most likely from hdd to ssd or vice versa, and there everything rests on hdd with almost any not-so- ssd. Durability is good too. I have been using it for 2 months, I have recorded about 1.3tb of data, according to the proprietary program, the service life is 99%. That is, in total, somewhere around 100-200tb of data can be overwritten.
Cons
  • They exist and there are quite a few of them: 1. These are proprietary utilities. Crucial has them, but they are made anyhow, if the support utility is still all right. Well, ugly with a crooked output of information, but at least it works. Already ated the firmware through it (all the rules). Then the transfer utility is something. Not only that, you can only transfer from hdd to ssd only if ssd is the same size as hdd or larger. So the program doesn’t care much if, for example, you have a 500GB screw, but only 40 are occupied on it, it will not allow you to transfer these 40, even to a 250GB ssd, only to 500GB. Secondly, this is a stupidly torn program from Paragon, and when I transferred it with paragon, I ended up with a blue screen, although I copied the disk 1v1 to the last file. I had to set the system from 0. If you want a quiet transfer without incident, you will either have to buy a transfer program separately, or take Samsung, there is a proprietary transfer program without jambs. 2. Support in English only. There are no representative offices of the company in the CIS at all, so if there are any questions about the guarantee, then consider this too. 3. Delivery set 0, only ssd, no bolts, no cable (but this is a standard, don't expect anything from other companies here either) 4. I can not say that this ssd is absolutely silent and trouble-free in operation. Very rarely, but sometimes it makes some clicks, not very loud, the sound is similar to the displacement of the head of the hdd (but it is the ssd that emits, I checked). For an 8-hour session, there can be 2-5 such clicks (generally not critical). So, during these clicks, the system freezes for about 0.1-0.5 seconds. As I understand it, some internal algorithms are performed.

I have already bought more than 10 pieces - I put clients in laptops instead of the usual ones. There are no complaints. Works great.

Pros: 5 years warranty. Analog disk Intel for half the price. Cons below: Maybe not the fastest. But stable, reliable, high-quality.

I bought it more than a year ago for my laptop, it works fine, Windows 8.1 on HP Pavilion m6 1050er turns on in 5 seconds and turns off in 5-6 seconds. The write speed compared to HDD is incredibly fast. Now I'm building a PC, I'll buy this SSD model from Crucial.
