Very aggressive cost per gigabyte, Competitive speeds for a SATA SSD in various Crystal DiskMark and AS-SSD trials,
Terabytes-written endurance rating a smidge lower than average, Warranty only three years, No native software

Mushkin has been basing its SSDs off Silicon Motion controllers for years, and they have produced a few hits when they have managed to deliver a good-performing SMI platform at great prices. That was clearly the case with the last Mushkin drive we reviewe...
Overall Performance, Features (MEDs / SLC Write Caching / DevSleep), Available In Both 2.5” And M.2 2280 Form Factors, 120/250/500/1000GB Capacities, Endurance Numbers (100TBW For The 250GB Capacity), 3 Year Warranty, Price,

Price, Great overall performance, Metal chassis (many entry-level drives are plastic)
DRAM cache
When we talk about entry-level solid state drives we typically expect really bad performance, but that was not the case with the Mushkin Source. Even with its DRAM-less design it performed good enough for us to not really consider it entry-level, or at le...
