Crucial m4 — solid state drive — review: Crucial m4 — solid state drive —
Sharing the same design and interface as most of the other solid-state drives we’ve reviewed, the Crucial m4 stands out where it matters most: the price. It’s still much more expensive than a traditional hard drive, but the m4 is the most affordable SSD on the market, especially its top-capacity 512GB version. In fact, its cost per gigabyte is low enough for us to look past its comparatively slow performance and the fact that it doesn’t include a drive-bay converter to fit in a desktop computer.
Crucial m4
If you are looking for an SSD to upgrade your system with, be it a laptop or desktop, at its street price of around $440 for 256GB (or $220 for 128GB and $800 for 512GB), the Crucial m4 will make a totally worthwhile investment.
Design and features
| Drive type | 2.5-inch solid state |
| Connector options | SATA 3Gbps, SATA 6Gbps |
| Available capacities | 64GB,128GB, 256GB, 512GB |
| Product dimensions | 9. |
| Capacity of test unit | 256GB |
| OSes supported | Windows, Mac, Linux |
Like the rest of the SSDs we’ve reviewed, the Crucial m4 has the same shape, dimensions, and port design as a standard SATA 2.5-inch laptop hard drive, so it will work in any application where these hard drives would be used. We tried the drive with a few different computers and different operating systems (Mac, Windows, and Linux), and the drive worked well with all of them. For desktop computers, we were able to use the drive while leaving it unscrewed in the drive bay, as it has no moving parts and is very light. It would be better, however, if it came with a drive-bay converter, the way the OCZ Vertex 3 does.
The Crucial m4 supports RAID configurations and has an estimated mean time between failures of 1.2 million hours. This means that with normal usage the drive can easily outlast the rest of your computer’s components.
Similar to other high-end SSDs and hard drives, the Crucial m4 supports the latest SATA 3 (6Gbps) standard but also works with the popular SATA 2 (3Gbps) standard. To get the most out of it, obviously, using it with SATA 3 is recommended. When used with a computer with an SATA 2 controller, however, the drive also offered a great performance improvement in our trials.
Cost per gigabyte
The scariest thing about SSDs is the price, and the Crucial m4’s is the easiest to swallow in this regard, though not really easy enough for most of us. The m4’s 256GB version costs around $440, which translates into $1.72 per gigabyte. Its 512GB version is even cheaper at just $1.56 per gigabyte. For comparison, the Vertex 3 costs $2.17 and $3.76 per gigabyte for the 240GB and 480GB, respectively.
Compared with traditional hard drives, however, the Crucial m4 is still very expensive, as most hard drives cost just a few cents per gigabyte.

Performance
We test SSDs in real-world usage, both when the reviewed drive is used as the main drive, which hosts the operating system of the test computer, and when it’s used as the secondary drive, which is used only to store data. Some of our tests gauge the performance of the system as a whole and see how the drive affects its performance. Our data copy tests, however, show the drive’s raw data transfer speed when used in real-world scenarios after all overheads. Our test system uses the latest chipset, RAM, and processor, and is equipped with built-in SATA 3 controllers to show the drive’s top performance.
We first tested the drive as the main drive of the test system. In boot and shutdown tests, the m4, like all SSDs, helped the system take a very short time to boot up and shut down, just 28.7 and 6.8 seconds respectively. Note that the boot time includes the time the test machine takes to go through the hardware initialization, which is about 15 seconds. Compared with when the system used a hard drive as the main storage drive, the amount of time required to boot up and shut down was cut by about one-third.
In the office performance test, in which we time how long the computer takes to finish a comprehensive set of different concurrent tasks, as expected the Crucial m4 didn’t help much, as the test system took 393 seconds to finish the job. Note that when used with a hard drive, the system took just a few seconds longer to get the job done. The storage device doesn’t play a big role in these tasks. We did notice that the applications used in the test launched much faster than when using a hard drive.
Similarly, in our multimedia multitasking test, which gauges the computer’s performance as it converts an HD movie from one format to another while iTunes is doing a heavy job of music conversion in the background, the Crucial m4 only helped speed up the process just a little bit, scoring 322 seconds, compared with 340 seconds when a hard drive was used.
The Crucial did much better at the copy test, which is the most important test, showing how the drive performed while simultaneously reading and writing a large amount of data. In this test, the m4 scored 118MBps, which is about three times the speed of the fastest hard drive. Unfortunately this was still slower than the Plextor PX-256M2S , which scored 162MBps. It was in no way the slowest, however, as the OCZ Agility 3 scored only 102MBps in this test.
We did only one test with the drive being used as a secondary drive, and it’s the same copy test as mentioned above. The only difference is that this time, the drive performed only writing, and the m4 did much better, showing a speed of 236MBps.
Again this easily more than doubled the speed of even the fastest hard drive. Compared with other SSDs of the same standard, the m4 was again neither the fastest nor the slowest.
All in all, considering how affordable the m4 is, we were pleased with its performance, which will definitely improve any computer’s overall performance, compared with a hard drive.

Service and support
Crucial backs the m4 with a three-year warranty, which is decent and standard for most SSDs. At Crucial’s Web site, you can find a page dedicated to the m4 that offers lots of support information, including firmware and manual downloads.
Conclusions
Add better performance and the 4-star Crucial m4 SSD would earn our Editors’ Choice Award. In its current state, we still loved it for its already decent performance and, most importantly, its affordable price. The drive will make an excellent buy for anyone who wants to upgrade and get the best performance out of a high-end system.

Home Reviews Crucial m4 128GB SSD Review
Back in 2010, Crucial released their RealSSD C300 and while it had some pretty severe problems out the gate, it eventually became one of the fastest SSDs on the market. At the time, the C300 was among one of the first SSDs to support the SATA 3 6Gb/s interface, and provided users with one of the fastest 4k read/write speeds on the market.
Yeah, the transition to the Marvell controller was a big factor and yeah it did take a while for Crucial to iron out the issues, but ultimately Crucial was able to pull off a winner. Unfortunately by then, SandForce started stepping up to the plate with their brand new SF-2200 controllers, and it was time for Crucial to up their game.
Fast forward to today and we’ve got the Crucial m4 SSD, the successor to the RealSSD C300. While it’s still running that same ‘ol Marvell 9174 controller, Crucial has dropped in some their finest 25nm synchronous NAND as well as a couple firmware improvements to bump the performance up to 500MB/s and 175MB/s sequential read/write speeds respectively.
How does this drive stack up to the SandForce dominated market these days? Read on my friends…

Part Number: CT128M4SSD2
- Sustained Sequential Read: Up to 500 MB/s(SATA 6Gb/s)
- Sustained Sequential Write: Up to 175 MB/s(SATA 6Gb/s)
- 4KB Random Read: Up to 45,000 IOPS
- 4KB Random Write: Up to 35,000 IOPS
[/box_light]
Here, the specifications are quite interesting.
When compared to SandForce based alternatives out there, it looks like Crucial’s m4 is a flop, only boasting up to 175MB/s writes whereas comparable SandForce drives are able to advertise ~500MB/s. Don’t be fooled by this numbers game though, the numbers advertised by SandForce based drives are typically run using compressed data – something SandForce controllers excel at. When actual, incompressible data is tested though, the actual read/write numbers tell a whole different story.

A Closer Look
Since we received the upgrade kit for review, the SSD came with some accessories – cloning software, a usb to SATA adapter cable, as well as some documentation to get us started.
Here we have a quick look at the SSD itself. The casing has a nice metallic finish to it, and feels quite durable. You also get a Crucial sticker up front in typical Crucial colors. Lookin good!
At the bottom you also get a sticker with all the specifications of the drive itself.
The important thing here is that this drive is updated to revision 0309, which means it will be free from the 5000 hour BSOD issue. If your drive isn’t updated to revision 0309, it is recommended that you do so as soon as possible to avoid this problem. You may find more details of the issue as well as the firmware update to fix it here.
In its usual spot, we also get a SATA 3 6Gb/s connector as well as the SATA power connector. Be sure to connect this drive to a SATA 3 6Gb/s header on your motherboard to take full advantage of the performance of this SSD.
Here we can see the frontside of the SSD includes 8x 8GB 25nm Micron NAND modules along with the Marvell 9174 controller.
On the backside, we get another 8x 8GB NAND modules to make up a total of 128GB.
Here’s a closer look at the Marvell 9174 controller.
Finally, here we also take a closer look at the individual NAND modules. As you can see they are Micron branded.
Finally, we also have a 256GB Micron branded DRAM module which acts as a cache for the SSD.

Performance
ATTO Disk Benchmark
ATTO Disk Benchmark is one of the industry’s most popular benchmarks for testing SSD read/write speeds. This benchmarks allows read and write testing using predefined block sizes and gives us a good idea of read/write speeds with different sized files.
In the ATTO Disk Benchmark, the Crucial m4 does very well, pushing out 539MB/s reads and 205MB/s writes. Oh how I love it when actual product performance is greater than the manufacturer’s advertised performance.
Crystal Disk Mark 3.0.1 x64
Crystal Disk Mark is another popular benchmark which allows us to measure both sequential read/write speeds as well as random read/write speeds.
With this benchmark, tests will be run using both random fill (incompressible data which simulates music, video, pictures, etc.) and 0 fill (compressible data).
The 0 fill numbers (compressible data) aren’t quite as strong as the ones you’d see on the SandForce based drives, but that’s expected because the Marvell controller on the Crucial doesn’t get any performance benefits when data is compressible.
Here, we see the drive’s performance with incompressible data, and it’s very impressive. This drive is able to push out 508MB/s reads and 205MB/s writes, and ranks among the fastest drives we’ve tested.
AS SSD Benchmark
AS SSD is a very commonly used benchmark used to measure SSD performance in a number of categories. Here, tests are run using incompressible data, which most simulate real world usage. It also outputs a final score at the conclusion of the test based off the read and write performance of the drive.
Again, we see a little more of the same with AS SSD.
Reads over 500MB/s and writes over 200MB/s. Additionally, as usual per SSDs in general, we see very low access times and very high 4k reads/writes. This means we’re going to see very quick, very snappy performance in normal day to day use.
PC Mark 7
The PC Mark 7 storage test tests the SSD under many different real world tests such as gaming, video editing, etc. This is most representative of the SSD’s performance under real world situations.
| SSD | PC Mark 7 |
| SanDisk Extreme 240GB | 5273 |
| Crucial m4 128GB | 5214 |
| Patriot Pyro SE 120GB | 5042 |
| Kingston V+200 120GB | 4711 |
| OCZ Agility 3 120GB | 4701 |
| Corsair Force 3 180GB | 4615 |
| Seagate Momentus XT 750GB | 3247 |
| WD Scorpio Black 250GB | 1727 |
Seeing the performance from previous tests, I must say this one was somehow expected.
The m4 was able to top our PC Mark 7 score at 5214, which is higher than all other SSD’s we’ve tested with the exception of the SanDisk Extreme 240GB, which uses toggle mode NAND and is the 256GB model, which is typically able to get faster writes.
Software
Included with the upgrade kit is the USB to SATA adapter along with some Apricorn cloning software. As you can see from the screenshot above, the software is very intuitive and simple to use. All you really have to do is choose the source drive, choose the destination drive and voila!
Unforutnately, as you see here, the transfer rate isn’t the best since you are going to be limited to USB 2.0, but the copy only happens once, so that’s not too much of a problem. I would’ve liked to see USB 3.0, but it’s not a dealbreaker by any means.
Conclusion
Honestly, I came into this review expecting a lot. There are so many factors in play that puts Crucial into such an excellent position when it comes to making great SSDs.
For one, Micron/Crucial owns their own fab. These days, that’s a pretty coveted position to be in with only a couple players on the market being able to say the same. Knowing exactly where your NAND is coming from and being able to customize your firmware for the specific NAND modules is a very good thing. Additionally the m4 is an evolution of the C300, a proven winner, and with Crucial sticking to the same controller, I expected most if not all bugs to be ironed out by this point.
After testing this drive, it seems like Crucial didn’t let me down. The Crucial m4 was able to deliver some top of the line performance especially when put into scenarios where incompressible data was concerned. 4k performance was excellent as well, delivering around up to 80MB/s writes and 28MB/s reads, which should make this drive very fast in day to day use. Additionally, it was also able to outscore every drive I’ve tested so far on the PC Mark 7 benchmark, with the exception of the 240GB SanDisk Extreme, which again uses more expensive toggle mode NAND and is the 256GB model, which typically gets faster write speeds.
For those planning on upgrading their laptop drives, both the cloning software and adapter kit come in extremely handy as well. Once the drive is connected to the USB adapter, it’s as easy as popping in the software and setting everything up. Of course, I do prefer Kingston’s upgrade kit a little bit better since they go as far as including an entire external hard drive enclosure, but this does the job just fine.
Along the pricing front, this drive is very competitive. The M4 128GB is currently priced at $162.16 for the bare drive and $199.99 for the upgrade kit (what we’ve reviewed today). Other comparable 120GB SSDs such as the Corsair Force GT 120GB is priced around $170.99, Patriot Memory Pyro SE 120GB at around $173.32, and the OCZ Vertex 3 120GB at around $169.99.
Bottom Line
Overall, I’m very impressed with the Crucial M4. I came in expecting this drive to pump out some serious performance, and it didn’t disappoint. So, what do you call an SSD that delivers solid performance at a great price? A winner.
Special thanks to Crucial for making this review possible.
The Crucial m4 is currently available for purchase on Amazon.
