Boot up almost instantly. Load programs in seconds. And accelerate demanding applications with ease. It all starts with ditching your hard drive.
Engineered to outlast and outperform your hard drive, the Crucial BX100 SSD makes nearly everything on your computer faster and more efficient.
Over 15x faster than a typical hard drive1
Get more done in less time — or just have more fun. The Crucial BX100 SSD is over 15 times faster than today's best-selling internal hard drive, and delivers true 535
MB/s sequential reads on both compressible and incompressible data. By treating all data the same, the Crucial BX100 allows you to do everything quickly, whether you're saving an image, accessing a ZIP file, or loading a video.
Over 2x more reliable than a typical hard drive2
Protect your data by storing it on the Crucial BX100, which is significantly more reliable than a typical hard drive. In the computer industry, storage drive reliability
is measured in mean times between failures (MTBF). Most hard drives have MTBF ratings of 0.6 million hours, whereas the Crucial BX100 has a reliability rating of 1.5 million hours. In practical terms, the more reliable your drive is, the less likely it is to crash.
Over 2x more energy efficient than a typical hard drive3
Run your system longer and harder — using less power. With Extreme Energy Efficiency technology, the Crucial BX100 is over 2x more energy efficient than a
typical hard drive. Since SSDs access data digitally rather than seeking it out on a spinning platter, they consume significantly less power.
Better value than a typical SSD
Get more out of your system — without compromising quality. At write speeds up to 535 MB/s, the Crucial BX100 SSD isn't the fastest drive on the market, but that's
squarely our intent. We painstakingly engineered the Crucial BX100 to provide a massive performance boost, while also delivering an unrivaled value among SSDs. Make the switch to the Crucial BX100 and get everything you expect from a Crucial SSD at an unexpected value.
Micron® quality—a higher level of reliability.
As a brand of Micron, one of the largest flash storage manufacturers in the world, the Crucial BX100 is backed by the same quality and innovation that has produced some of the world's most advanced memory and storage technologies.

Either drive model will greatly improve computer response/performance as long as CPU isn't to slow. I used this on an Intel Celeron dual core 800Mhz per core laptop running Windows XP and it starts up about twice as fast and apps load much quicker as well. I installed the other model on a single core AMD 1.8Ghz laptop running Windows 7 and it starts up and responds even faster/better. There are faster drives for higher end systems but you also pay more, but lower end laptops wouldn't benefit much from faster SSD's because of CPU limitation.

Fast. I mean real fast. The OS loads in seconds. Installed one in machine that ran a very slow proprietary program. Program now runs much faster. Replaced HDD with these units in two different machines. It brought them back to life. Going to use another one in a current build as the primary drive for the OS and programs. This SSD is an excellent choice.
