Quote:Overall, the MX300’s performance results showed similar to the stated specs and it and even proved to be a force to be reckoned with in terms of power efficiency. However, it did lag behind most of the competition in our PCMark 8 tests and showed performance that was more in line with planar TLC SSDs than MLC ones. This is a bit disappointing taking into consideration the price point and ever heated competition in the marketplace. At $0.26 per GB, the MX300 has a great MSRP of $199.99, but at around that price range you can also go out and buy multiple planar TLC SSDs at 1TB class capacities as well, though, at a cost of a bit lower performance and less features.
Speaking of features, there are a lot of them packed into the MX300 to increase its value. It has full hardware encryption that is compatible with Microsoft eDrive and many data integrity technologies with power-loss protection to keep your data safe. The inclusion of the 7mm to 9.5mm spacer and Acronis True Image HD for those who will be cloning also helps to increase value to the prospective buyer.
We look forward to seeing what other products with Micron’s 3D NAND will bring to the table in the upcoming months. 3D NAND is the future and this is just a glimpse of what is yet to come. The Limited Edition 750GB Crucial MX300 offers up a decent value for those in the market for a new high capacity SSD. For most consumer uses we have no qualms in recommending it to our readers. We just wish they would finally up their warranty to five years rather than three.
