    The Crucial MX500 SSD is a great product in a small package and can serve many needs. For my purpose, I wasn’t seeking a replacement for my main hard drive. The reason is my current solution has my OS on a NVMe/PCIe SSD. It’s faster than the SATA makeup of this one. With that being said, it doesn’t disappoint though. My secondary drive was a standard SATA HDD and this Crucial MX500 SSD is a great upgrade. It allowed me to stock more games and programs on a faster solution. I didn’t record the time it took things to open, but it clearly opens things a lot quicker than before. To get to this point, the process was pretty easy once I had everything I needed. Crucial supplies an Acronis cloning tool that is pretty straightforward to use. Before you use it though, you need to find a way to connect the SSD to the computer to transfer the data. The directions call for an USB-to-SATA cable and that is an additional purchase that needs to be made. The software is free though. Once you finish the easy steps to set it up, you are good to go. You just need to find a free slot in your computer and connect it for use. Personally, it had been a long time since I set up a hard drive and this was the easy thing I needed to get to where I wanted to be. I look forward to extending the life and performance of my system for quite some time. If anyone is using a SATA HDD, then I think they would truly benefit upgrading to the Crucial MX500 SSD. It’s very affordable and easy to set up.

    Looks like the hard drive might be okay, but the installation service may not have been okay. I sometimes have the same hard drive issue I had before taking my laptop to the Geek Squad at Best Buy.

    This was the first time I purchased a crucial brand SSD and it failed within two weeks of install. I gave three stars due to the return policy Best Buy has and I am sure after reading 99% of the reviews being positive I just got 1% bad one.
