CRUCIAL STORAGE EXECUTIVE

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You can download the Crucial Storage Executive software from the manufacturer website (unfortunately even to launch the software you need a valid internet connection).

The initial screen gives you details of both your system memory and the SSD(s) installed.

 

 

Of course, the software also allows you to check the drives details including its SMART page.

 

 

As expected the sample arrived with the latest firmware installed.

 

 

Other things you can do is use sanitize (as long as you install the Micron PCIe driver) to erase everything on the drive, format the drive, try the momentum cache feature which can improve the performance of the drive (this feature effectively uses a piece of your systems RAM to cache the most frequently accessed data), use over-provisioning to improve performance and durability (this will eat some of your empty drive space however) and perform a device self-test (PSID Revert, Flex Capacity and Namespace Management were all greyed out).
