    So the instructions seemed to be straightforward but the execution was not that smooth. In my last ditch attempt I hooked up the drive and then formatted that drive. Before that it would say there were errors and fail in the last part of the cloning. I think the formatting kinda shocked the system and its been working flawlessly since. Boot time is awesome. Wife is impressed.

    Good drive for the price, use it as a secondary drive to store games and no complaints so far, build quality feels a little cheap but you get what you pay for, Samsung drives are still king in my opinion but if you find this hard drive for a good price don't hesitate.

    I purchased this internal Hard Drive to replace the current Hard Drive which will make my computer start up faster. Then, the computer's original hard drive, I will use as a back-up drive for pictures, documents, etc., etc. The price and delivery were outstanding.

    This is my third Crucial SSD and like the others it works perfectly. The speed enhancement gained from going to this from a conventional spinning HD is at least x6 if not x8. This one was for an HP laptop with an Intel i5 processor and 12 GB of memory.

    I had purchased one of these at another store a year or so ago and wanted to get another for a different computer. Better price at Best Buy for the same device. Overall excellent performance for an SSD, not the fastest there is, but tons better than an HDD.

    The SSD is working well for me. Its not as fast as m.2 drives, but much faster than the platter drive that it replaced. It was easy to migrate to the new drive using a USB to SATA device and the Crucial migration software.

    Due to my limited m.2 space, I got two of these for game storage. One holds my steam installs and the other holds my random other games. Decent load times, not much different than my m.2 nvme 3rd gen. I’ll buy 2 more eventually once the ones I have are full.

    I dont know why everyone feels the need to have a "Samsung" drive.. ive used these for years (crucial ssds) and never had any issue with them. They cost less then samsung and write at the same speeds... dont waste your money people

    Replaced the System Hard Drive with this SSD

    Replaced the 1TB hard drive in 2 computers with these. I made a system image backup using the W10 backup with advanced options to save a system image to a portable hard drive. I then just unplugged the SATA and power cables from that hard drive and plugged them into this SSD. Installed the system disk and powered up the computer. Made the proper selections to read the image from the portable hard drive to restore the computer to the SSD. Went without a hitch. There are other ways to do this and Curcial has instructions on their WEB site.
