1 TB SATA SSD

The Crucial BX500 is a 1 TB internal solid-state drive that uses a SATA interface and a 2.5-inch form factor. It employs Micron 3D NAND technology to deliver sequential read speeds up to 540 MB/s. The drive is designed to replace a traditional hard drive in laptops or desktops.

Upgrade for older systems

This drive suits users who want faster boot times, quicker file loads and improved system responsiveness on platforms with a 2.5-inch SATA bay. It also offers 45 times better energy efficiency than a typical hard drive, which helps battery life in portable machines. Builders whose motherboards only accept M.2 modules cannot install this 2.5-inch unit.

SATA interface decides fit

The single specification that determines compatibility is the SATA interface combined with the 2.5-inch physical size. Your system must provide a standard SATA data port, a SATA power connector and a 2.5-inch drive bay or bracket. Without those three elements the drive cannot be used.
