X-star Bull Shark mSATA SSD 1.8in Solid State Drive Storage Devices for Computer PC Desktop Laptop 512GB ( Item#: C10391-512GB )

This is a great buy for the money. I striped these together in a RAID array to double the speed. Note I am a backup fanatic with both file and image backups. I have had other SSD's fail, these are solid and reliable so far.

Great upgrade for the old, slow hdd drive it replaced. Not as fast at other SSD drives but definitely a lot faster that the stock hdd drive. Windows loads faster and the drive isn't constantly working and chattering away like with the old hdd drive so I'm happy.

I bought two SSDs on sale and was very happy with the price. I am using one of the SSDs for a couple of months and it's very stable and it made my old computer 10 times faster. I would recommend this SSD to general users who don't want to spend a lot of money to upgrade their PC but they can make old PCs running fast enough for browsing and general computing. Booting the PC and installing software and updates are 10 times faster.

My laptop had a regular 5400 rpm hard drive. Then my son upgraded his to SSD and raved about the speed and start-up time. We chose this one because of it's value, i.e. it's cheap! I had some trepidation because the reviews said there are better and faster ones. After we installed it I have no complaints. It's noticeably faster and my laptop wakes up almost instantaneously

This was fairly easy to install, I have a custom built PC so all of the cables were already there. It does NOT come with a cable nor mounting screws. If you want it to look professional then you'll have to buy those separately or rip them out of an older PC. You do have to configure it first which was a little troublesome at first because I'm not a Windows person. I simply hit the Window button and type 'Administrative Tools' then clicked 'Computer Management' then scroll down to 'Disk Management'. Your new drive should be there ready to initialize and configure. For Linux it's the standard mounting command. I play video games and this drive is much faster than a spinner drive, glad I purchased it.

What bad could be said about a SSD drive that works perfect? It is known for good quality and reliability - that's why I decided to dish out more for the same drive capacity. Use it as a network share with a lightning fast access from anywhere!

First of all this is a quality SSD and is really fast. I have been using in a professional recording studio environment for 3 months now wit zero issues. My Windows 10 PC fully booted and ready to go in 18 seconds! Love it. For all those one star reviews its very obvious you don't know what your doing when you were installing. There is nothing automatic about installing a new drive. Learn before you get in over your head.
