Can be used for quite a long time
The MX3300 offers an endurance of 220 TB of writing. In other words, you can completely fill this SSD with files, wipe it, and fill it again 220 times before it becomes unreliable. This means that the MX300 can be used for quite a long time especially considering the fact that most users won't be writing more than 10GB even on a busy day.

Excellent performance when saving files
The MX300 has Dynamic Write Acceleration, a caching solution that creates a large buffer to significantly increase the drive’s write speeds. This allows the MX300 to reach write speeds of up to 499MB/s on average (Crucial advertises write speeds of 510MB/s) which is more than enough for most people.
