Revainrating 2 out of 5

It was a bad idea to buy it, the money was wasted.

There are 2 SSDs in the system, one samsung 860 evo, to replace the oldest dead OCZ 60Gb, bought only at the time of the birth of ssd for a lot of money - I took this unit. As a file disk - maybe, wherever it went. As a working tool - absolutely none. During the slightest load on the SSD in the form of downloading files and working simultaneously, the system simply freezes. I have not seen a browser crash for a long time and think for 10-15 seconds how to open a window or start a video on some…

Pros
  • Price, availability.
Cons
  • Speed, system stability.

Satisfied with the product, I recommend it to everyone.

As some reviews say, there are problems with temperature, which is why there are performance drops - I myself have not yet dealt with this issue Has pros: According to the tests, it seems to be one of the best in its category. It doesn't make much sense to talk about volume and price - there are a dozen more of the same ssd. Its cons: Drops (sometimes) in speed when working with large files - copying folders, opening. Rarely - freezes the system. Before that, there was a plextor m5s, if I'm not

A great option for this money, one of the best offers.

In the absence of alternatives, I took this SSD for 4400, but I recommend taking the M2 if you have the opportunity to take the M2 SSD for about the same money + - 200 with a Pci-E interface (Important, M2 with Pci-E support, M2 with an interface SATA does not make much sense compared to a regular SATA SSD 2.5, only there will be a little less wires in the case, there are no other advantages)

Pros
  • + Speed ​​- the speed is amazing, after HDD you feel dramatic changes +Off. software from Crucial Storage Executive - I can't fully evaluate it yet, but according to the Internet, the software can improve the performance of the SSD, so you need to install it. + Reliability and cost - go together, because unlike competitors' SSDs, which put a phison ps3111-s11 memory controller, Crucial uses Silicon Motion SM2258XT for its BX500 - which, although structurally, is not very far from Phison (it also does not use DRAM cache ), but according to numerous reviews outperforms the competitor in terms of reliability.
Cons
  • - A visible, but almost imperceptible drop in read / write speed when the SSD is ~ 70% full, the laptop turned on Windows in 17 seconds before filling, now - in 21-24 seconds. (Laptop has Storage Executive installed and Momentum Cache enabled)

I like it, thanks for the quality product.

In general, if you need an over-budget ssd for 480, this is a good option, well, if there is an opportunity to pay extra, then it’s better to take something like a Samsung . Has pros: I took the price for 4250r, for 480GB there was only two choices for this money, the declared speed holds 550-500mb / s. That's where the pluses ended. Some cons: The main drawback is heating up, it’s really calm with a load of 60+, but without a load of 36. I think this is not normal, although it does not affect…

Disgusting quality, impossible to use.

I don't understand where the good reviews come from, I guess I should wait a bit. The declared resource is several times less than that of nearby competitors. For example, in relation to a patriot, the declared resource is four times less, which does not justify savings when buying this device by 10-15%. Now my device has passed about 90tb of recording and infa already warns, And a pair of plextors, 256GB each with a buffer 8 (!) times more, went the same way and so far has not sagged by a…

Pros
  • slightly cheaper than analogues in the line of famous manufacturers
Cons
  • Resource. Incredibly small claimed resource.

Used SSD with connector bent and almost gone

I was thrilled to receive this drive directly from Revain as I've heard good things about this Crucial SSD. Before that I only used Samsung SSDs and mostly had good experiences with them. My first suspicion that something was wrong was that the SSD wasn't packaged in a barcode-sealed box like Samsung SSDs, but in a plain brown envelope. with "Crucial" lettering on the outside. When I opened the package I found a bent and twisted plastic container with a push to close. Inside was a Crucial BX500

Incredible for Storage

It's been over 10 years since I've done any computer upgrades. I think XP was still the dominant OS when I last opened my computer to do some work. I've made a habit of buying new ones every few years and throwing them away. I've been shopping for new laptops for the last few months and reading their Revain reviews caught the recurring theme of installing a good SSD with a clean copy of Windows on a brand new computer. I started doing it myself and started reading about these Crucial SSDs. I…

Pros
  • Availability
Cons
  • Negative Experience

Yes, it is without DRAM. Yes, this is usually seen as a disadvantage. This is usually the case in a SATA III system. But when used in an older system it's perfect for SATAII (3Gb/s) and actually faster than the MX500 (with DRAM) on SATA-II. On SATA-III, this drive will definitely show how slow it can be. , but read/write speeds are still more than double those of the fastest spinning SATA drives. In the same old AMD Phenom II X4 955BE system that hits the max SATAII speed of 3Gb/s, when…

Pros
  • Don't waste too much time
Cons
  • Vulgarity

Pros
  • Extends battery life as it's 45 times more energy efficient than a regular hard drive
Cons
  • Not sure

On SATA-III, this drive will definitely show how slow it can be. , but read/write speeds are still more than double the fastest SATA drives. The smaller BX500 is actually faster at 269MB/s read and 252MB/s write. There really isn't much point in spending the extra 40%…

Pros
  • 300% faster than traditional HDD
Cons
  • No performance
