Description
The CT500BX100SSD1 is a 500GB SSD that delivers high performance and reliability. It is designed for use in desktop computers, laptops, and other systems that require a fast and reliable storage solution.
Technical details
- Capacity: 500 GB (Gigabytes) – Provides enough storage for operating systems, applications, large media files and personal data.
- Form Factor: 2.5 inch – standard form factor for many SSDs and hard drives, suitable for most laptops and desktop PCs. Can also be used in external enclosures.
- Interface: SATA III (6 Gb/s) – Also known as SATA 3.0, this interface enables data transfer rates of up to 6 Gb/s and is backwards compatible with SATA II (3 Gb/s) and SATA I (1.5 Gb/s).
- Cache memory: 16 MB – Cache memory improves SSD performance by caching frequently accessed data and quickly delivering it.
- Controller: SMI (Silicon Motion) Controller – Known for its efficiency and performance, this controller controls the way the SSD works.
- NAND Type: 16nm NAND Flash – This technology offers a good balance between performance and cost. It is reliable and durable, although not as advanced as 3D NAND.
- Read/Write Speeds: Up to 550MB/s read and 400MB/s write speeds – These speeds ensure fast data transfers and an overall faster system.
- Average Access Time: Nearly Instantaneous – Compared to traditional hard drives, SSDs have near-instantaneous access time, which greatly improves overall system performance.
Features
- Performance Improvement: The BX100 Series offers significant performance improvements over traditional hard drives, including faster system boot and application loading times.
- Data Protection: The SSD uses technologies such as Power Loss Protection to prevent data loss in the event of a sudden power failure and ensure data integrity.
- Energy Efficiency: SSDs are more energy efficient than traditional hard drives, resulting in better battery life in laptops and lower power consumption in desktop PCs.
- Silent Operation: Since SSDs have no moving parts, they operate silently and contribute to quieter system operation.
- Durability: SSD technology is more robust against physical shocks and vibrations compared to traditional hard drives.
Areas of application
- System Upgrade: Ideal for upgrading existing hard drives in laptops or desktop PCs to improve system performance and speed up application boot times and responsiveness.
- New System: Can be used as the main drive in new computers to provide a fast and reliable storage solution.
- Portability: Can be used in external enclosures to provide a fast and portable storage solution.
- Data storage: Well suited for storing operating systems, applications and personal data that require fast access times.
Security aspects
- Regular backups: Even though SSDs are very reliable, regular backups of important data should be performed to avoid data loss in case of unexpected errors.
- Maintenance and Checking: The SSD should be checked regularly for its health, especially during heavy use or when signs of performance problems appear.
In summary, the Crucial CT500BX100SSD1 offers a high-performance and cost-effective storage solution that delivers significant improvements in system performance over traditional hard drives. It is particularly well-suited for system upgrades, new systems, and applications where both performance and reliability are required.
