Despite these concerns, many find it a great value for money, especially for those who need a reliable SSD for basic tasks. The build quality is noted as average, with some mentioning a plastic case that feels less sturdy. Overall, the Crucial BX500 is recommended for budget-conscious buyers looking for a decent performance boost, although it may not be suitable for heavy data transfer tasks.

The best for your money)))
15 December 2020 
If you are assembling a homeless PC, then in principle it’s okay to download Windows and a couple of games for your own money. But you can live until you find the money for an expensive SSD drive.
Easy to install (I assembled the PC for the first time). They didn't lie, the memory doesn't heat up. For my money it’s the best I’ve seen and it didn’t die as usual with others.

I've been using mine for the second year on a Core 2 Duo E8200, DDR2 8GB 1066. It has Win10 installed, everything is great, and the difference compared to an HDD is huge, it feels like I bought a new PC. Although the motherboard only has SATA 2. The speed in tests shows 230 Mbit.
