Selling a BNIB Crucial BX100 500GB SSD
If you have a disk-based hard drive, a solid-state drive will increase your boot/load times by at least 15 times!
I unfortunately bought the wrong one for my girlfriend, so i'll be selling it $215 OBO.
one of the BEST budget SSDs to get in the market right now, here's a quote from
anandtech:
"Talking about performance, the BX100 is a great all-around performer. It performs well regardless of the workload and despite not being designed for IO intensive workloads such as The Destroyer benchmark, the higher capacities (500GB & 1TB) manage to be very close to the higher-end drives. It actually begs a question of whether it's worth it to pay the premium for a high-end drive because in reality you will only be gaining about 10-15% higher performance, whereas the cost premium is much more than that. For professionals who truly need the best IO performance, the premium can be worth it (although you should really be looking at PCIe SSDs already), but for enthusiasts it's safe to say that the BX100 delivers far more bang for the buck than a high-end SSD does (unless you're looking for a 256GB drive or smaller)."
Currently on
Amazon for 215+tax, i'll sell it for base price without tax.
Open to offers around price range as well.
