    Bought this drive to replace my Xbox One S internal drive that failed. The speeds on this is so much better than the stock drive that's inside the Xbox. Games load super fast now.

    Sata plug was brittle and cracked with very little pressure. Drive was still functional so I just secured the cable so it couldn’t bend back and forth.

    Garbage. Less than 30 days after usage (and we are only talking a few hours a week) the drive is already showing signs of errors. Had to run drive repair on an SSD? Sad. This is not BestBuy's fault but Crucial's fault for making horrible subpar hardware. BestBuy has a lot of better hardware to choose from so stay away from dumpter fire ssd. The name really sums it up... It is crucial that you find another brand of SSD.

    The drive formatted to the Eufy file system as expected. Three days later it is not working. Will be returning. I’ve used Crucial products for tears with no problems. Thumis one just didn’t work though the brand was recommended by Eufy.

    Not the best SSD out there, has a pretty small cache so when downloading games from steam it can throttle the download.

    Purchased this to use in my Eufy Homebase 380. Worked great until about the six month mark. Kept getting errors to reformat and eventually Eufy software said the drive asn't stable and to replace. Disappointing considering Crucial used to be well know for their stability.

    It works, but extremely slow for the price. I wouldn't recommend using this to store games or large video/audio files, let alone as your OS drive.

    The installation software used to clone the original drive didn't copy the Boot Sector, so it couldn't boot up!!!

    As much as it was recommended, it was not compatible with my Eufy homebase three or camera product. It did not store any videos very disappointed.

    I returned this drive it became very very hot extremely quickly even idling, I felt it could be dangerous to leave it turned on and certainly not good for the laptop.

    Degraded Performance After Only 1 Month

    Speeds dropped dramatically after 1 month of use. Can barely open any programs installed on the drive. Crucial's support articles, troubleshooting steps, and downloadable tools did nothing to solve the problem.

    I have never had an SSD fail but then again I have always bought Samsung SSD drives. I thought I would save some money by buying this for my Eufy Homebase 3. It didn't even make it a month before it died. Absolute garbage.

    TLC was changed to QLC and once the cache is filled these drives have abysmal write speeds (20mb/s) Steer clear of this crucial drive.

    Storage capacity

    Rated 5 out of 5 stars

    I got it for a good price and they price matched.

    I wanted some additional storage space for games, programs and movies so I decided to get this SSD sunce it was on sale and I had a $10 promo code. I found it on another competing vendor for a lower price and Best Buy was kind e ough to price match the item as well for additional savings. For the amount of storage at it's price and the quality of Corsair I feel I got I decent deal. It's not the best warranty nor the best value I saw, but it was cheap enough and very convenient to pickup.
