While being priced similarly and performs similarly to competitor SSD. This PCI-E 4.0 SSD is priced little bit lower than other PCI-E 4.0 SSDs. Offering one of the fastest R/W speeds, this SSD pretty much guarantee having to wait only few seconds to transfer most (if not the entire) of your photos, videos, documents or game libraries. Random 4K R/W is slightly lower when compared with Intel 900p/905p but worth it for very fast and new PCI-E 4.0 interface and obviously 1TB of storage. Suggested to pay 10 USD extra for heatsink though. [Oct '19ColdSpy]
The 275GB Crucial MX300 supersedes the MX200. Unlike its predecessor, the MX300 is TLC based and therefore suffers from weak write speeds in comparison to MLC drives. The MX300 utilises a sophisticated algorithm to enable fast burst write speeds provided that there is sufficient free space on the disk but as the drive fills up write performance drops to the relatively poor levels seen on other TLC drives (similar to mechanical drives). At current prices (70 USD) the MX300 competes well with other low end drives such as the OCZ Trion, Adata SP550 and Samsung 750 EVO. As stocks build the MX300 is likely to see further price cuts, so it could become a very interesting value proposition. See the current value leaders here. [Sep '16SSDrivePro]
