Overview
A 256GB 2.5" SSD on the SATA interface. Sequential throughput tops out at 550 MB/s reads and 520 MB/s writes. At roughly $0.7 per gigabyte it sits in the high-end tier. SATA throughput caps near 550 MB/s — fine for game libraries and backups, slower for heavy scratch work.
Its $179.99 price tag places it squarely in high-end territory. Drop it into the PlanMyPC builder to check compatibility with the rest of your parts and fold its price into your running build total. Support and warranty service run through Crucial, with terms that vary by region. Scroll down for the complete spec table; the builder's compatibility checker will warn you about any conflicts with components you have already picked.
