One of the more popular 2.5-inch SATA SSDs on the market today is the Crucial MX500, and its 4TB version has just gone on sale. Though laptops with M.2 SSDs are now relatively affordable, a lot of desktop PC owners still prefer to add a conventional SATA SSD as a secondary mass storage device. The MX500 is one of the more popular drives in this segment, fittingly its 4TB version has just gone on sale.
In this particular instance, the Crucial MX500 with a storage capacity of 4TB and utilizing TLC NAND Flash technology is being offered by CompuFreak IT. The price for this product is R4499, which includes free shipping or the option for in-store pickup if stock permits. It’s important to note that this discounted price is exclusively online at CompuFreak Shop. Additionally, CompuFreak IT also provides significant discounts on the smaller variations of the Crucial SSD. These include the 1TB model priced at R1750 and the 2TB model priced at R2750.
While it’s true that the SATA SSD in question doesn’t offer the fastest transfer speeds, it does provide sequential read and write speeds of up to 560 and 510 megabytes per second, respectively. However, there are other noteworthy aspects to consider. The 4TB Crucial MX500 boasts a high endurance rating of 1,000 TBW, indicating its durability. Additionally, the storage device is backed by the standard five-year limited manufacturer warranty, providing customers with peace of mind. For users who require a significant amount of storage and have already filled their M.2 slots, this deal presents an excellent option.
It’s worth mentioning that with an appropriate enclosure (available from the CompuFreak Shop for R350), this SSD can also be effectively utilized as an external USB drive, offering practicality and versatility.
