Crucial MX300 525GB SATA SSD

The Crucial MX300 is a 2.5 inch internal solid-state drive with a 525GB capacity. It connects via a standard SATA interface and uses Micron 3D NAND technology. Sequential reads reach up to 530 MB/s and writes up to 510 MB/s. Random reads hit 92K and writes 83K across all file types.

Upgrade from a mechanical hard drive

Replacing a traditional hard drive with this SSD delivers over 90x better energy efficiency and dramatically faster saves or file transfers. Dynamic Write Acceleration keeps performance consistent during heavy workloads. The jump is worth it when boot times, application launches or large-file copies feel sluggish on spinning media.

Simple 2.5 inch SATA installation

The 7mm form factor fits most laptop and desktop drive bays using a standard SATA data and power cable. No special drivers are required for Windows or macOS. What usually goes wrong is forgetting to initialise the new volume in Disk Management or leaving the old drive as the boot priority in BIOS.
