  • Communication Protocol

    Most SSDs use SATA III or PCI Express.

    Almost all 2.5" SSDs connect via SATA III while most M.2 SSDs connect via PCI Express.


    PCI Express connection offers higher speeds, but this is mainly noticeable in demanding applications (high-resolution video processing, transferring large files, etc.) and is not necessary for everyday use.

  • Write Speed

    Indicative size for the maximum speed of the hard disk during data recording. The larger the size, the faster the data recording.

    For an SSD that uses the SATA III protocol, the average recording speed is 300MB/s, while for one with NVMe it is 1200MB/s.

    These differences make sense in particularly demanding use cases (e.g. high-resolution video editing). For most users, the differences will not be noticeable.

  • Read Speed

    Indicative size for the maximum speed of the hard disk during data reading. The larger the size, the faster the data reading speed.

    An average reading speed for an SSD using the SATA III protocol is 600MB/s, while for one with NVMe it is 2000MB/s.

    These differences make sense in particularly demanding use cases (e.g. high-resolution video editing). For most users, the differences will not be noticeable.

Description

Upgrade your system with the Crucial E100 SSD, a high-performance drive that fully utilizes the PCI Express 4.0 x4 interface. Designed to deliver ultra-fast data transfers and exceptional responsiveness, the E100 drastically reduces loading and boot times. The compact M.2 2280 design allows for easy integration into modern laptops and desktops, offering the ideal balance between space-saving and top durability guaranteed by Crucial's Solid State technology.

High-Speed PCIe 4.0 Performance

The Crucial E100 redefines your computer’s speed using the modern PCI Express 4.0 x4 interface. This advanced technology offers exceptional data transfer rates, allowing the system to communicate faster with storage. The result is a significant reduction in loading times for demanding applications and games, enhancing the overall responsiveness of the system with every action you take.

M.2 2280 Design for Space Saving

Thanks to the sleek M.2 2280 form factor, the Crucial E100 is designed to fit even in the most limited spaces of modern devices. Its compact design allows for efficient use of internal space in laptops and desktops, without any sacrifice in performance. It is the ideal choice for small-sized builds or for upgrading slim laptops that require maximum power in minimal dimensions.

Solid State Technology Durability

Based on Solid State Drive (SSD) technology, the E100 lacks moving parts, making it extremely resistant to shocks and everyday wear. The absence of mechanical components not only improves its durability over time but also ensures silent operation with low power consumption. With the Crucial E100, you enjoy a reliable storage medium that protects your data while consistently performing under any conditions.

Seamless Integration into Any Setup

The flexibility of the Crucial E100 makes it suitable for a wide range of devices, from gaming rigs to productivity workstations. The M.2 2280 design ensures seamless integration, allowing for easy installation directly onto the motherboard. This eliminates the need for unnecessary cables, improving airflow inside the case and providing a clean and organized environment for your hardware.

Improved System Responsiveness

Upgrading to an SSD with a PCI Express 4.0 x4 interface transforms your operating system experience. Command response becomes instant, large file transfers are completed in seconds, and latency is minimized. The Crucial E100 is built to handle intensive tasks, offering the necessary speed required by modern software and heavy workflows.

Reliable Choice for the Future

By choosing the Crucial E100, you are investing in technology that is ready for the future. The support for PCIe Gen4 ensures that your drive will remain up-to-date and efficient even with the next generations of processors and motherboards. With Crucial's quality guarantee, this 22.8" SSD (M.2 dimensions) is a reliable solution for those seeking long-term reliability and top storage speeds.

Form Factor

The term form factor refers to the physical size of SSDs. The motherboard must support the form factor of the SSD in order for it to be installed.

M.2 (Type 2280)
The motherboard must support the form factor in order for the SSD to be installed on it. It is worth noting that M.2 drives are divided into those that use the SATA protocol and those that use PCI Express. Of the SSDs that use the PCI Express protocol, most also support NVMe technology, which allows them even faster speeds if supported by the motherboard.

    This review is about the capacity: 1000 GB

    I haven't bought it but don't buy it because it's crucial. They use chips that don't pass the test for the better SSDs. Also, they advertise that it is 80TBW which for 1TB is very low

    I had a Samsung 250GB SSD... I don't remember much, but it was with a SATA cable... I don't really know much... they upgraded the machine and it was quite fast... I thought to change the hard drive and get an even faster one, so I got this one... I can say that the machine is slower than the old SSD I had... Even though theoretically it has 3500 speed that my motherboard can handle... it wasn't worth spending money in the end
