Currently one of the highest capacity consumer SATA SSD on the market, this SSD offers huge amount of capacity and high R/W which is limited by SATA 3 max bandwidth. However, 4TB SSD and bigger begin to offer lower GB per dollar (which equals lower value) than the lower capacity SSD in the market such as 2TB NVMe SSD (Intel 660p 2TB at $194-209). [Dec '19ColdSpy]
Before looking at the benchmarks for this drive it's worth noting that it is nearly three years old, a lifetime in SSD's. The Crucial C300 demonstrated a transfer speed of 309.1 MB/s on the real world speed test. The AS-SSD total scores was comparably poor coming in at 640 points. By today's standards this drive is terrible but it is included in the group test simply as a reference because it was once one of the best solid state drives available. [Apr '13SSDrivePro]
