- Is the Micron C400 still worth buying?
- Only for legacy machines or secondary storage. A current SATA SSD is faster, cooler and more power-efficient for the same role.
- How fast is the C400 256GB?
- Micron rated it around 500 MB/s sequential read and about 175 MB/s sequential write. Random 4K performance is modest by today's standards.
- Does it work in a laptop?
- Yes, it is a standard 2.5-inch SATA drive. Check that your laptop takes a 7mm or 9.5mm 2.5-inch drive rather than M.2.
- What is in the box?
- The drive itself. No SATA cable, screws or cloning software are included, so plan for those separately.
- Is it compatible with SATA 3Gb/s systems?
- Yes. It will work on older SATA ports but will be capped at the slower interface speed.
- Does it support TRIM?
- Yes, with an operating system and chipset that pass TRIM through. That helps keep write performance from degrading over time.
