Abstract: The first mSATA-based SSDs we reviewed wowed us with diminutive dimensions, but not as much with performance. Today's best efforts are a lot more like their desktop equivalents, though. We round up 10 models between 64 and 256 GB and nail down a winner. ...
Consistently fast performance on all of our benchmarks, Doesn't lag far behind pricier drives, Also available in 7mm versions for thin laptops
Accessories and software cost extra, Pricey compared to several other performance-grade drives, which were faster on some benchmark tests
On our benchmarks, Crucial's M4 drive was appreciably speedy, without ever breaking new ground. If you're looking for well-rounded performance, it's a solid choice, but a bit pricey. ...

Lower than Standard M4 SATA random read/write performance, Overall, I found the Crucial m4 mSATA SSD to be very impressive. You get close to the performance of the full-size m4 but in a significantly smaller package. The sequential read/write performance
The Crucial M4 64GB is arranged with only one NAND chip connected to each of the eight channels provided by its Marvell controller, preventing each channel from reaching its full write potential. The obvious alternative to this strategy is to use only...
Abstract: Nothing gets my cooling fans going like a new hard drive! With that, I have yet to hop on the SSD wagon, until now. I have resisted as long as possible because even though the benchmarks were there, the prices just were not. Crucial thinks they can make m...
