    Ideal!

    The Crucial BX500 240GB is an excellent choice for someone looking to upgrade an ageing PC or improve boot times and basic responsiveness without spending a lot of money. It's perfect for everyday tasks such as web browsing, using office applications, and limited storage. However, for users looking for more capacity or higher performance, it's best to look at more advanced models, such as M.2 NVMe SSDs or higher-capacity SATA drives.

    Perfect

    Product ordered to revive an old computer with Linux Mint Xfce. Boot time has gone from 2m30s to 30s and the PC is much more responsive. This is the least expensive SSD and its capacity is more than sufficient for a simple office PC with Linux.

    Nice...

    Excellent product for a Linux machine, performance as expected. Crucial at TOP! I recommend this product even for a Windows machine, but only the system. Apps/games on another SSD.
