The speeds are a little less than the Samsung drives but when you compare the pricing they are an amazing buy. Plus you are also getting a 3 year warranty like on the Samsungs.
 
must say im tempted to buy one of these 512 ones today but i want a caviar black aswell and your prices are terrible on them :(

drop the caviar black prices to match others so i can order :D

yours are like 70 quid everywhere else 55.
 
Crucial MX100 256GB SATA 6Gbps 2.5" Internal SSD • 550 MB/s Read / 300 MB/s
Crucial MX100 512GB SATA 6Gbps 2.5" Internal SSD • 550 MB/s Read, 500 MB/s Write
 
A quick google:
"Builds on the same architecture as the M500 and M550. The only fundamental difference is the NAND inside as the controller is the same Marvell 88SS9189 silicon as found inside the M550. The 9189 is a minor upgrade over the 9187 and what it does is provide better support for DevSLP along with some bandwidth optimizations."

Sequential Read 550MB/s 550MB/s 550MB/s
Sequential Write 150MB/s (128), 330MB/s (256), 500MB/s (512)

I remember when I bought my 60gb ssd and it was £70 iirc.

Tempted!

could you buy 2 of the 256gb ssds and raid them? That would give you more performance than the 500gb and be the same price no?
 
Those prices are pretty amazing. I paid £90 last November for one of the M500 240GB as a Steam drive; for that scenario I don't think the slow write speeds make much difference.

Slightly more performance for less cost and half the storage ;)

If you're after performance then these are not for you, but as a solid SSD they look very good... Very interested for the future (due to the amazing pricing) and waiting for some comparisons as the EVO really has set the benchmark for 256/512 SSD drives.
 
Nice, picked up the 512GB version (from elsewhere, really wish you would sort out NI postage)
 
Damn it just brought the crucial m500 the other week wish I had waited, though I price wise they cost the same and as its just a document drive, read and write speeds are not that important.
 
Nice prices on these.

I'm sure ill get slated for saying this but:

For the most normal OCUK users wont be able to find a real world differance between this and a Samsung Evo.

Having just gone from a Crucial M4 120GB to a Samsung Evo 250GB I really couldn't tell the difference and there was a generation between those two.
 
So true, real world difference, especially the 512 version, will be negligible. Judging from the reviews the 512 is a pretty solid drive any way offering decent performance.
 
I can't tell the difference in loading times on games from a first gen ocz core to a current gen pci-e 1250mb/s monster. It simply doesn't matter what you buy if it's for steam seeing as games only load as fast as the assets are layed out. Any SSD beats any normal HD and no ssd loads my steam games faster than others.
