Crucial BX100 250 GiB SSD Review
Conclusions
Contents
Before analyzing the results of our tests, it is important to keep in mind that the Crucial BX100 is aimed at the entry-level market, and it is not a direct competitor to the Corsair Neutron XT, which is a performance-targeted SSD. It can be seen buy the price difference between both units. We chose this method for the review because, unfortunately, we had no direct competitor, with similar capacity, available at the lab.
Said that, we can say the Crucial BX100 250 GiB behaved as expected, presenting a high performance on the sequential read, but a little slower as the random read and write tests. One strong point of this model is that its performance is the same with compressible and incompressible data, which means its controller does not rely on data compression to achieve higher speeds.
With a good performance for its category, and a price tag smaller than the high-end models, the Crucial BX100 256 GiB SSD is a good deal.
