    A New SSD for a Linux Mint Installation

    An older computer was unable to upgrade to the most recent build of Microsoft Windows 11 Home, and with it being an older computer, I figured that a Linux Mint installation would give it a new lease on life. Installing the Crucial BX500 1TB 3D NAND SATA 2.5-inch SSD was very simple, and I was able to get Linux Mint installed without any issues. Thanks to the speed of the Crucial BX500 1TB 3D NAND SATA 2.5-inch SSD, my old computer performs much faster than when Microsoft Windows 10 Home was installed on it.

    works great as an external drive

    Bought it to use inside a USB enclosure as an external drive to backup some important files. Data transfers fast as expected... works great!

    Worth every penny great deal

    This purchase was truly a blessing my son‘s laptop hard drive went bad. I ordered this Crucial SSD, and the price was right, on top of that, I trust the company as I’ve used their product many times before. Absolutely a great buy would recommend to anyone. I got lucky and was able to copy his old hard drive onto the new SSD not gonna lie. It took over 17 hours to do but again I got lucky didn’t have to reinstall windows and all of his drivers nothing.
