Even though their BX100 drives are not even a year old, Crucial has made the tough decision to EOL this award winning series and replace it with a new model: the BX200. This may seem like an admission of defeat for a highly respected product but nothing could be further from the truth. The BX100 still performs extremely well but the entry level SSD marketplace has been moving forward at such a quick pace that Crucial felt it was time to break with their typical release cadence. More to the point everyone from Samsung to OCZ are moving to a yearly refresh pace for a lot of their series and if Crucial had not kept up they would have been left in the dust.
