HDD on my PS4pro took a crap so I was looking for an alternative. Read good things about the MX500 so I bought it. Installation was a breeze. No hiccups and there's definitely a performance increase with the SSD over the old spin HDD. Highly recommend upgrading to this if you have a PS4pro even if you HDD is still good.
Kudos for fast shipping from BB.

iMAC HDD Replacement

Put this drive into a late 2013 (14.2) iMAC 27" to replace a very slow HDD. The performance increase is amazing. I have to admit that replacing an iMAC's HDD is a fairly complex operation when compared to most PCs and some other Apple products. Also, had to do some formatting work while connected to a PC initially to get this drive to be recognized by Apple machines. Once that was done, things moved along just fine.

The 1 TB SSD so far is running steady, I had to replace a 500 GB SSD that crashed in my Mac Mini. I had read different reviews and found that Crucial made very reliable SSDs so I took a chance I have not been disappointed

Fast drive. Benches at 514.63MB/sec read and 455.72MB/sec write. The benchmark numbers aren’t indicative of the “snappiness” and how fast games and apps actually load. Your usual day to day browsers and other apps load instantly. Games load considerably faster than a standard HDD. Overall it’s a great drive from a reliable manufacturer and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a 2.5” SATA SSD.

Great value and it actually works. Plugged it in and installed Windows with no problems in very little time. More than I can say about that trash Samsung that I bought, thinking it would be trustworthy…nope.
Get a Crucial. Better value. Better product.

Upgraded old Dell Inspiron 15 3521, coming from a Seagate 250GB 5400RPM. Previous owner for some reason lost the screws securing the face side screws to the chassis, and since Crucial does not provide new screws with their SSDs I was a little concerned. I got lucky: The end bracket with the HDD was secured on the sides with appropriate screws, so removing the bracket provided two to secure the Crucial SSD. Boots and shuts down at least four times faster than before. This was a clean install, so with the advice of Dale at Cadillac Computer Center, I just created a Windows Media USB drive to boot up from a blank disc. Worked perfectly. I'd give Crucial another star if they could at least add a few screws, since these older computers often get fiddled with and people do lose screws occasionally.

Good performance for the price of this drive. Works well and provides a nice speed boost. Definitely not the fastest SSD on the market, but it does offer a lot of reasonably speedy storage at a nice price. A decent value.

Crucial has been my go-to SSD since I first started building my own computer. It's always been reliable and easy to install - very user-friendly. What more, Best Buy usually has some kind of sale or deal, so it's great to snatch up when you see it go on sale! It's a great buy!

I can't believe that the SSDs have gotten to this price point. I have used the Crucial MX500 1TB to upgrade my HP laptop and another for my desktop. Say goodbye to the disk bottlenecks! I used the free cloning software from the Crucial web site to clone my Windows 10 system disk on both my laptop and desktop. My laptop runs Windows 10 Home and my desktop runs Windows 10 Professional.

Super Fast 1tb SSD

I already have an NVMe drive for my OS, so I purchased purely for storage of my games. This drive is 1tb, so it has more than enough for me and has DRAM. It is extremely fast and boots games up just as well as my NVMe drive. Couldn't be happier with it. If you are looking for a good SSD then this will be the right choice. I have had no issues with it and am very glad I got it.
