Crucial MX100 (256GB & 512GB) Review
by Kristian Vättö on June 2, 2014 3:00 PM ESTPower Consumption
Like the M500 and M550, the MX100 supports DevSLP and slumber power states. Unfortunately we still don't have a way to measure DevSLP power but we do have slumber power results to report. Slumber power is actually up quite significantly, although the power consumption is still relatively low. Power consumption under load is, on the other hand, slightly down for the 512GB model whereas the 256GB MX100 consumes 0.1-0.4W more than its M550 counterpart.

Samsung Evo comes to mind ;-)MikeMurphy - Monday, June 2, 2014 - link
330MB/s reads with zero random access penalty is ample for 99.99% of the users out there.There isn't much (or any) real world difference between this and something faster.

Yes, I'd love to see a link to a $100 external SSD with 550MB/s at 95k IOPS.UltraWide - Monday, June 2, 2014 - link
Do you plan to include tests with encryption enabled in the future? Thank you.Zoomer - Tuesday, June 3, 2014 - link
And does it support bitlocker eDrive / OPAL, etc?stickmansam - Monday, June 2, 2014 - link
Dang those prices look goodMakes me wish I had waited to grab the MX100 instead of getting the SP920
Similar sustained performance but MX100 has better GC and consistency

Neither of the Samsung buttons work for the last chart on http://www.anandtech.com/show/8066/crucial-mx100-2...The error in the firebug console is "TypeError: document.getElementById(...) is null"

Why are 4k random reads so much slower than 4k random writes? Or, are the graphs mislabeled and mixed up?khkha - Tuesday, June 3, 2014 - link
I have just bought seagate 600 for my early 2011 mbp. Should I return the drive and buy this instead for 30gb space bump?Thoughts anyone?
