More than 40x more energy efficient than a typical hard drive
Since SSDs access data on cutting-edge flash memory chips rather than on outdated spinning platters, they consume significantly less power than hard drives. Enjoy the ability to do more with longer battery life and experience a cooler, quieter system. Increase your laptop's portability, worry less about finding an outlet and boost your productivity.

More durable than a typical hard drive
Since SSDs don't use moving parts that wear out over time, your photos, music, videos and everything on the drive is less susceptible to a crash. Dropping a laptop with a hard drive may damage the small mechanical parts it uses to read and write data and could cause the hard drive to fail. SSDs can sustain more physical trauma since they don't rely on these mechanical parts.

Better value than a typical SSD
The Crucial BX200 leverages proven flash memory technology that's been thoroughly vetted and engineered to extensive Micron quality standards. Upgrading to an SSD is one of the best ways to improve your system's performance and now the price per gigabyte makes it a great time to ditch your hard drive. Start getting more out of your storage.

Form Factor/Type
The physical size of the hardware components in your system. For example, the form factor for an SSD might be 2.5 inches or 1.8 inches, which tells you the dimensions of the SSD.

Interface
An interface is the means by which two independent systems communicate. For SSDs, the interface refers to a connector that plugs your SSD into your computer so it can receive power or data.

Read
In computer terms, a "read" refers to accessing a piece of data from a storage device or memory.

SATA
Serial Advanced Technology Attachment. It's a type of interface that connects a storage device or optical drive to your computer's motherboard-think of it like an umbilical cord because it allows data to flow between the two. SATA is measured by how fast data transfers to/from the device. There are three SATA speeds, SATA I (1.5Gb/s), SATA II (3.0Gb/s) and SATA III (6.0Gb/s).

Write
In computer terms, "write" refers to how quickly a piece of data can be saved to a storage device (saving a document is an example of a write function).
