Crucial BX300 240GB Solid State Drive Review

Testing – HDTune Pro & ATTO
Keep in mind for testing the advertised speeds for this drive (240GB) are 555 MB/s read and 510 MB/s write.

Our first test is SiSoftware Sandra’s Physical Disks benchmark. We run both the read performance and write performance tests. Click on the images below to see the full-size results.

The read test yielded 534.21 MB/s whereas the write score was 497.77 MB/s, both of which are very close to the advertised speeds of the drive.

ATTO Disk Benchmark also measures transfer rates across specific lengths. ATTO uses RAW data, our transfer sizes ranged from 0.5 to 8192kb. ATTO is usually our definitive benchmark for solid state drives.

Here we can see the drive performs right up to its advertised speeds.
