Crucial MX200 500GB & 1TB Solid State Drive Review

Testing – CrystalDiskMark & AS SSD
CrystalDiskMark is our next test and it has a sequential read / write test as well as a 512k and 4k random read / write test. With SandForce-based drives we normally run this test with 0Fill, but since this drive is powered by a Marvell 88SS9189 controller we do not have that problem.
