Crucial MX200

Crucial MX200 Solid State Drive

More speed, capacity, and endurance. Get more out of your storage.

When the Crucial MX100 was released, it set a new standard for SSDs that the Crucial MX200 pushes even further. Leveraging leading specs on all fronts, along with new Dynamic Write Acceleration technology, the Crucial MX200 is loaded with innovative features and immediately increases your system's performance.

Micron quality - a higher level of reliability.

As a brand of Micron, one of the largest flash storage manufacturers in the world, the Crucial MX200 is backed by the same quality and innovation that has produced some of the world's most advanced memory and storage technologies. With over a thousand hours of prerelease validation testing and hundreds of SSD qualification tests, the Crucial MX200 has been thoroughly tried, tested, and proven. Make the switch to the Crucial MX200 SSD and start getting more out of your storage.

Do more. Faster. Longer.

The Crucial MX200 delivers 555 MB/s sequential reads on both compressible and incompressible data, and outperforms a typical hard drive by 400 MB/s.* Even better, the performance doesn't let up, as the Crucial MX200 posts an endurance rating that's up to 5 times greater than a typical client SSD.**

Transfer and save large files in a matter of seconds.

Competing SSDs typically rely on a fixed cache of multi-level cell flash memory, which allows you to write sequential data at published specs, but only for so long. The industry-leading Dynamic Write Acceleration technology solves this problem by using an adaptable pool of high speed, single-level cell flash memory for consistently fast performance that doesn't let up.

Max out performance and increase reliability.

Engineers created RAIN technology to protect your data at the component level, similar to how RAID is used with multiple hard drives. This technology increases the security and protection of your data to a level that's rarely seen in consumer-class SSDs.

Encrypt and protect your data at the highest possible level.

Keep personal files and sensitive information secure from hackers and thieves with AES 256-bit encryption – the same grade used by banks and hospitals. The Crucial MX200 meets or exceeds all industry encryption standards, including Microsoft eDrive, IEEE-1667, and TCG Opal 2.0.

Run your system longer than ever before – using less power.

With Extreme Energy Efficiency technology, the Crucial MX200 is over 2x more energy efficient than a typical hard drive.***

Push your drive to the limit and avoid overheating.

Adaptive Thermal Protection technology enables the Crucial MX200 to dynamically adjust storage component activity based on how you're using the drive, allowing your storage system to stay cool.

Keep your memories, photos and files safe.

When a photo or file gets corrupted, it often becomes unusable. Prevent this from happening in the first place with the Crucial MX200, which arms every storage component with four layers of Exclusive Data Defense.

* Performance comparison based on published sequential read specs of the 500 GB Crucial MX200 SSD and the 1 TB Western Digital Caviar Blue WD10EZEX internal hard drive, which is one of today's best-selling hard drives and an accurate reflection of a common internal hard drive (as of September 2014).

** The published endurance rating (TBW) of the 1TB Crucial MX200 SSD is 5 times greater than the average published endurance rating of three leading mainstream client SSDs (September 2014): 1 TB Samsung 840 EVO, 480 GB SanDisk Extreme Pro II, and 480GB Intel 530 SSD.

*** Hard drive active average power use comparison based on published specs of the 1 TB Crucial MX200 SSD and the 1 TB Western Digital Caviar Blue WD10EZEX internal hard drive, which is one of today's best-selling hard drives and an accurate reflection of a common internal hard drive (as of September 2014).

    I installed this SSD as a replacement for the original 128GB Samsung SSD in my Dell Adamo 13 laptop when that SSD experienced sudden death, using a Mini PCIe mSATA to 1.8 MicroSATA adapter to connect it to the Adamo (see my review of the adaptor for more details). The revived Adamo is very noticeably faster than before (the Windows 7 Experience Index for the hard drive has improved from 5.9 with the original SSD to 7.8 with the Crucial SSD, only 0.1 short of the top rating of 7.9). Windows 7 startup and shutdown times in particular are significantly reduced. I've experienced no problems running this drive on a SATA II system, so backward compatibility seems to be just fine.

    After a couple of weeks of normal laptop usage, the SSD predicted lifetime (as interpreted by SSDLife) is just a tad short of 9 years, which should comfortably out-last the Adamo. The only thing to watch seems to be the drive temperature when used in what is essentially an unventilated space. While running a series of very large (multi-GB) file copies, the sustained transfer rate reached the 140-150 MB/sec region (on a SATA II channel) and the drive temperature climbed to 72°C, which is a bit warm for comfort. On a SATA III channel it could presumably get much hotter (although Crucial claim the drive has temperature regulation strategies built in).

    Incidentally, Crucial (as of around 20th Feb 2016) have dropped their advertised price for this SSD by almost £17 - check before you buy!

    This thing runs hot.
    My other mSata SSD idles around 30c and at load up to 40c without active cooling.
    This thing though, 40c at idle and almost 60c at load WITH active cooling, I'm aware of the shortcomings of mSata drives but this isn't safe for extended periods. Definitely backup using this as a boot drive.

    I have installed it into Acer Aspire V3-772G.

    I used Clonezilla USB key to clone information from old drive, but it has no feature to move recovery partition within disk and to resize main Windows partition to consume all free space that I got upgrading from old 120Gb SSD.

    NB: Package does not contain "Acronis True Image HD software" mentioned in the description on Amazon site.

    Not really a three star product except that you should not download Acronis true image with the supplied serial key . Just do a search on Acronis true image lock ups and you'll find a number of articles referring to frequent lock ups after using it to clone crucial ssds under certain circumstances (windows 8 using Intel RST) . Once I uninstalled acronis (which installs a number of startup applications without any visible way of opting out which is probably the main issue) it stopped locking up

    Anyone unsure about upgrading to Windows 10 should go for it. I have Windows 10 installed on this SSD and it boots up in about 10 seconds! All applications load lightning fast without any problems. Another reviewer commented that the included Acronis software should not be used as there are compatibility problems with Crucial SSDs. I have used it with Windows 10 and it seems to work perfectly.
    The only bad point is that the supplied screws are miniscule and so you need the hands if a surgeon to fit it!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Dell 8500 Upgrade - Best Bang for Buck
    Reviewed in the United States on 27 February 2016
    Capacity: 500GBVerified Purchase
    Very good product. Easy installation, no issues. IT COMES WITH SCREWS.

    I've had this installed for several weeks now. I hate reviewing products right out of the box. So I've had a chance to really wring this one out.

    This was an upgrade to a Dell 8500 with the mSATA connector. I do a lot of video (HD not 4k) and photo processing and wanted to either buy a new workstation or upgrade the 8500. Decided to try the upgrade route with a new Windows 10 installation, the 500GB SATA as the C drive and a 4TB Seagate hybrid drive as the D: Drive. The mSATA is now the boot drive with the bare minimum of file storage, but all of the apps. The Seagate internal hybrid is the main data storage drive with a 5TB western digital backup USB 3 and a 4TB myCloud to boot.

    The speed increase in video processing is incredible. Videos that took 30-40 minutes to render in MPEG 4, from AVI files, now take 5-8 minutes. Almost a factor of 10 speed increase. I render to the mSATA drive, but source from the Seagate hybrid. Once I'm done, I move the finished product to the Seagate.

    This was a great upgrade, easy to install. I did turn the computer on its side to ease installation and to catch to inevitably dropped screws.

    The computer now boots in about 15 seconds. Far, far faster than booting from a mechanical 7200 RPM drive...
