THE MX100 512GB

Again we see the same aluminum enclosure as the one used with the M500/M550 models (measures 100.45mm in length, 69.85mm in width and 7mm in thickness with a weight of 70g).

The sticker at the rear lists the model name, model number, serial number, barcodes, electrical requirements, model capacity, encryption key (PSID), firmware version and several certification icons.

As usual at the rear we see the typical SATA power and data connectors.

Removing the enclosure is a very easy task although by doing so you're obviously voiding the warranty.

Crucial has placed a total of 16 Micron NAND flash modules (16GB each) on both sides of the PCB.

On the bottom side we see the 8 channel 88SS9189 controller by Marvell and a low-power DRAM module by Micron.
