Review on Crucial MX500 500GB Internal SSD - Lightning Fast Speeds up to 560MB/s by Wiktor Paul ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

The choice was between Crucial MX500 and Samsung 860 EVO for 500 GB, because if you buy it right away, a high-quality SSD and at an adequate price. Initially, the choice fell on the Samsung 860 EVO, and I would take it if not one but, in my case, completely changed the choice. At that time, there was an 8350 on a 970 chipset, and the Samsung 860 EVO with a 970 chipset is practically not friendly, giving out a bunch of errors and a bunch of friezes in the system (there can be no question of any stability). Moreover, Samsung support claims that they have everything with this great and the problem is on the side of the users, but they are handsome and cannot understand why there are such problems on the 970 and 990 chipsets. Only judging by the heap of topics and discussions, apparently everyone who has a system assembled on these chipsets suddenly became crooked for their Samsung 860 EVO. took the Crucial MX500 and everything worked stably on my 970 (ASUS M5A97 LE R2.0) chipset, and now on the B450 (MSI B450-A PRO MAX) everything works like a clock without even a hint of uncomfortable use. More than a decent SSD , like Crucial itself, which has been making worthy products for a sane price tag in recent years

Pros
  • Worthy analog of Samsung 860 EVO with a difference only in the resource of use Support even for older platforms unlike Samsung 860 EVO
Cons
  • For many months of use, not even the slightest
