It is positioned as a product of the middle price category, designed for use in PCs and laptops for solving household and professional tasks. Suitable for both assembling new systems and upgrading existing ones. Made in a 2.5-inch form factor, has a standard thickness (7 mm) and can be installed in any full-sized laptops. Connects to the system using the SATA 3 interface, which is equipped with all motherboards from 2013-2019. The performant hardware basis of the Crucial MX500 CT500MX500SSD1 SSD is a 4-channel Silicon Motion SM2258 controller that supports high-speed SLC caching (up to 32 GB), progressi...ve LDPC encoding, SMART, TRIM and NCQ technologies. The most positive impact on performance was also made by the DRAM cache, which consists of a 512 MB DDR3L-1866 chip. The manufacturer declares a guaranteed recording resource of 180 TB and gives a proprietary five-year warranty, which is valid within the resource, which allows you to record up to 98 GB of data daily.

I’m already taking the 2nd one. First I took it to 250GB in a laptop to replace the HDD, the laptop just found a 2nd life with SDD. And after a couple of years I realized that this volume was not enough for me, and replaced it with 512GB, and put the old bate in the computer. Both work and please with the responsiveness of the system.
Price quality.
Didn't find it.

I had a choice between this SSD and the Samsung 860 EVO, since they are very similar in terms of speed, except for the MTBF, which is higher for Samsung, but the subject wins in price. As a result, I took this ssd for myself on the recommendation of my friend who took exactly the same one for 1TB in a system unit for games. I put it in my PS4 because long downloads have already begun to strain. Before throwing it into the curling iron, I tested it on a PC. In terms of speeds, everything is at the level declared, which cannot but rejoice. I didn’t find any big minuses, I didn’t encounter a drop in speed when the controller was heated (as they wrote in the reviews), apparently my use case is far enough from such tasks to encounter a similar problem. Now the games on the curling iron load much faster and their games are updated faster, which of course I am very happy about. I recommend this item for purchase.

In-house memory is a plus

After the release of the unsuccessful MX300 model, in which Crucial acted according to the rules of rivals, abandoning the Marvell controllers, the company decided to start everything from scratch and instead of the MX400 model, they immediately released the MX500. This SSD is based on a 64-layer TLC 3D NAND memory of its own production, the Silicon Motion SM2258 controller is used to manage this goodness, which has learned better how to manage this type of memory and has acquired more efficient SLC caching algorithms compared to earlier Silicon Motion chips.

Almost twin brother SSD Crucial BX50

The data sheet of the MX500 is almost the same as that of its twin brother Crucial BX500, which we tested a year earlier. For both, the “straightforward” passport write and read speed exceeds a little over 500 MB / s, and the IOPS indicators just do not reach 100K. In synthetic tests, the MX500 showed almost the same 498 MB / s with linear writes and all 555 MB / s during file reading. And also, as expected, it dipped in speed when the cache was completely filled. Like most low-cost drives, active write operations of data arrays are not their forte.

People's favorite

At one time, Crucial presented the MX500 as a new people's favorite. 3 years after the release, we can say that their plan really worked. And even though the young, fast, and evil M.2 SSDs are coming from all sides, Crucial's old-fashioned SATA SSDs are not losing their positions in the market, and even by the end of 2021, they continue to be in the top 10 most popular SSDs on ek.ua. And this despite the fact that the first places in the sales ranking were staked out by numerous Samsung Evo models. With that said, we think the MX500 would be the perfect choice for a low-cost gaming PC.
