Overview
Transform your systems performance.
New interfaces and multitasking demands require more from your system than
perhaps ever before. From connecting instantly with friends and accessing apps,
websites, and playlists online, to simultaneously streaming videos and
downloading files, your computer is faced with an entirely new set of
performance expectations that a hard drive struggles to meet. Thats where the
Crucial M500 SSD comes in. With data transfer speeds that are radically faster
than a hard drive, the Crucial M500 SSD isnt just a storage upgrade - its a
complete system transformation. From its nearly instantaneous boot times,
powerful data transfer speeds, increased multitasking capability, and rocksolid
reliability, the Crucial M500 delivers dramatic performance gains all at an
affordable price.
Ample storage capacity with plenty of choice.
Available in capacities up to terabyte-class, the Crucial M500 SSD
provides plenty of storage for your ever-growing collection of photos, videos,
music, and important documents. Based on your storage needs, choose between a
120GB, 240GB, 480GB, or 960GB drive and access your programs and files almost as
soon as you click on them. If you prefer to store your data on an external
backup drive, in the cloud, or on your home network, opt for a smaller capacity.
Or if youd rather have everything in one place, choose one of our larger sizes.
Whichever capacity you choose, our selection ensures that youre able to find a
drive thats the right combination of storage, performance, and price.
Consistently fast speeds. No exceptions.
No matter what kind of files youre working with on a Crucial SSD,
youll experience high speeds with no drop in performance across different file
types. Unlike other SSDs on the market, Crucial SSDs treat all files the same,
regardless of whether theyre compressed or uncompressed. While many SSDs on the
market achieve faster speeds by using file compression, many of the most common
file types cant be compressed, resulting in SSDs that often deliver slower
speeds than advertised. This is important because the files most people use
every day videos, mp3s, advanced graphic files and zip files - are compressed
files and thus unable to be compressed any further. With a Crucial SSD, the
specs we advertise are the same specs youll see in the real world.
Crucial SSDs. Performance you can trust.
Crucial is a brand of Micron, one of the largest NAND manufacturers in
the world, and we design and develop our SSDs in-house using state-of-the-art
technology. This means four things: hundreds of SSD qualification tests, over a
thousand hours of prerelease validation testing, 1.5 billion dollars invested in
R&, and more than 30 years of industry expertise. With our multi-billion
dollar commitment to NAND development, our record of patent and process
innovation, and our awardwinning customer support team, were dedicated to
quality. For you, that means your SSD has been designed with cutting-edge
technology and its been rigorously tested and approved. Dont settle for
anything less.
