1TB SATA SSD

That's a sata ssd crucial BX500 which were cheap and cheerful to start with. I'd 100% not be happy with a used one as my system drive! Why did they not install an NVMe drive? They must have charged you for that drive, no mention of it being 2nd hand and it's the budget sata type even when new. I use

No worries! Is that budget USD? You might be able to find something like a 500GB SN7100 in-budget. There are also drives like the Kingston NV3 or Crucial P310 although they use QLC flash rather than TLC so will have reduced write endurance and the write speed will fall off a cliff (potentially worse

Essentially without getting too technical it was marking files as deleted without deleting your data and organizing all the data so everythi

i think the crucial mx500 is a good choice but keep in mind its a sata ssd, so it will be a bit slower than NVMe ones but definiately usable for programming and other general usage.

I saw on Amazon.de recently that it costs around 400€. Apparently lot of people is searching for this drive becau

Ich werde nicht Spiele hin und her installieren um Ladezeiten zu messen, allerdings ist es schon deutlich spürbar. Lese- und Schreibgeschwindigkeiten habe ich gemessen mit 7,2 GBit/s (lesen) und 3,2 GBit/s (schreiben) mit einer Datei von 40GB Größe. Verbaut sind zwei Crucial MX500 2TB SSDs.

No a.i here, real world experience with just about every popular brand of ssd out there. Do I really have to show you my stack of 40 ssd's of all different brands? Your whole system can lock up if installed to a cheap ssd because even something like a bulk download will choke it. I have a crucial bx

This would be fine for an older or slower SATA HDD.... or a USB drive depending on the efficiency of the interface. By modern SSD standards, this is very sluggish. The last SATA SSD I bench marked was about 2.8x faster than these numbers (the below was from a Crucial BX500 1 TB SATA SSD Drive). . [R

you can absolutely use ssds, just need 2.5 to 3.5 adapters like the sabrent or icy dock ones. they're cheap and screw right into the trays. for drives grab samsung 870 evo or crucial mx500 - both are reliable and have power loss protection which matters for nas. hdds aren't as fragile as you think t
