Crucial MX200 1TB 2.5" SATA 6Gb/s Internal SSD

The Crucial CT1000MX200SSD1 is a 1TB internal solid state drive that brings the speed and responsiveness of flash storage to any computer with a standard 2.5 inch SATA bay. Because it uses a familiar SATA 6Gb/s interface, installation is straightforward for both first-time upgraders and experienced system builders.

Once in place, the drive reaches read speeds up to 555 MB/s and write speeds up to 500 MB/s. That means operating systems boot in seconds, large applications open without waiting, and multitasking feels smooth even when several programs run at once. Photographers handling RAW image libraries, gamers loading expansive worlds, and office teams working in data-heavy spreadsheets will all notice the improvement.

Crucial pairs these speeds with Dynamic Write Acceleration, a feature that uses an adaptive pool of faster flash memory to keep write performance steady under sustained workloads. RAIN technology adds a layer of redundancy by distributing data across multiple storage cells in a way that resembles RAID, helping safeguard your files against unexpected issues.

Security is handled at the hardware level through AES 256-bit encryption that meets Microsoft eDrive and TCG Opal 2.0 standards. Sensitive projects, client records, or personal documents remain protected without the performance penalty often seen with software-based encryption.

The drive is also built for efficiency. A design that focuses on energy savings makes it nearly twice as power-efficient as a typical hard drive, which can extend battery life in laptops and cut power use in desktops. Adaptive Thermal Protection monitors internal temperatures and adjusts activity when needed, helping maintain consistent performance in warm environments.

Whether you are revitalizing an older notebook, building a new creative workstation, or rolling out upgrades across an office fleet, the Crucial CT1000MX200SSD1 delivers a balanced mix of speed, capacity, and data safety that meets the needs of everyday users and professionals alike.
