Crucial BX300 2.5-Inch 3D MLC NAND SSD

Crucial, brand of memory and storage upgrades and trademark of Micron Technology, Inc., announced the availability of a new offering in its SSD product portfolio: BX300.

It combines Micron 3D NAND with a value-conscious design to deliver the features DIY upgraders and builders are looking for. This SSD includes 3D MLC NAND in a 2.5-inch form factor drive, and is available in 120, 240, and 480GB capacities.

Upgrading from a traditional HDD to SSD has been easier. The company’s Advisor tool helps users determine a compatible upgrade based on their system’s manufacturer, make, and model. Supporting the BX300 is firm’s mobile-friendly install guide so users of all technical ability levels are armed with the step-by-step information they need to install an SSD. Data migration is also simplified with free access to Acronis True Image HD software.
