Easy to fit and use except for the bundled software which I did not use. That aside, an excellent buy for a very fast back up drive for most applications at a reasonable price. A superb internal drive from a top class company, well done seller thanks!
An i7 laptop going very slowly with a 750 Gb hard drive now goes like a rocket, booting in 16 seconds due to this ssd. Buy one now, you will not regret it!
I got this Crucial MX500 500GB 3D NAND SATA 2.5 Inch Internal SSD as an upgrade from a smaller SSD, I use itas my system drive and it does exactly what I wanted. I cloned my old drive onto this new one and installed it in a very short time as my old drive was half the size of this one. It’s new so I can’t comment on it’s long term performance or reliability just yet.
This was recommended by a friend who works building and repairing computers. He has updated my computer and it is brilliant – in fact better than when it was new. Don’t know much about computers but his recommendation and the performance of my computer is enough to give this product 5*.
Fitted this to a friends very very old desktop PC. For the time being, it has given it a new lease of life and his boot and program start-up times are much improved compared to his old mechanical drive! A relatively cheap upgrade in this case and probably the best value upgrade you can do, along with memory/RAM.
My laptop was at a stand still but these ssd harddrive has made a massive difference. I use it for discos and searching for tracks could take ages as well as freezing mid song now tracks takes seconds to find
This started crashing after 11 months — like, my screen would freeze, everything became inaccessible and that was it. It wasn’t my main C: drive, but it did contain my desktop, documents and photo folders.
It took several attempts at disk checking and repairing to get it going again, but a few days later and the problem would repeat.
Thankfully I managed to back everything up beforehand, and also thankfully this happened within the warranty period.
Amazon are sending me out a replacement — could not fault customer services for trying to help.
It’s one of those things; all manufacturers will have drive failures — it just happens, so I’m not going to worry too much about whether this brand is better or worse than any other.
