    I have gone all SSD on all my systems. When you can boot in 18 seconds it just makes all the difference. Crucial makes this install as simple as can be for laptop or desktop. There is nothing I have ever done to enhance performance on a computer that is as noticeable as this. Highly recommend.

    Replaced a 500GB Samsung evo 860 with this 1TB crucial. Have been using for a few weeks with no problems. Performance seems to be comparable to the evo. Excellent price for the value. Crucial cloning software worked very well to swap the data between the drives.

    The Crucial MX500 may not be the fastest SATA SSD on the market, but it still sure is fast, and insanely reliable with its cacheing technology. Must buy!

    I used the Crucial Scan to get the correct or optimal products on my Dell to upgrade it. The unit after cloning and installation, replacing the original HDD, has made an extreme improvement in the speed of so many aspects of the computer's operation. Ordering the proper recommended hardware accessories for the cloning operation and using the recommended application to do it makes the process precise and simpler. Although unless you are familiar with the process, a little advance study and getting familiar with terminology helps a lot in doing, and feeling you are doing it correctly. I started replacing more HDD drives with SSD drives on my other computers.

    I have a Dell Inspiron laptop that had a HDD. This SSD replaced it. It appears to operate as its supposed to. It was installed by the Best Buy Geek Squad. I asked that the computer's RAM be increased, and the Squad failed to do so. I tried reaching the Squad by text, email and telephone, with no success. It also took me 2-3 hours to reinstall or reactivate my programs because they did not recognize this laptop as a device from which I signed/logged in before.

    It's small it's fast. I love it. I think I got it on sale which was pretty great. it's pretty easy to set up. don't forget to create a new volume so you can use it, unless you have a laptop than you might need some cloning software. Its great for what you pay for it.

    This product improved the performance of my computer. For example, boot times dropped instantly from over three minutes to under thirty seconds easily! This is spite of running several sizable startup programs and a modest internet connection.
