Very good quality product & great value for price,

I’m so happy with this purchase, very easy to use is was perfect for what I need I would recommend to buy it and also I want to add that they help to choose the best fit my needs.

DO NOT BUY!! These hard drives are terrible! We bought 3 of these at Best Buy in November, 2024 for my husband's photography business. After a few months, we started having trouble with one of them opening up, but not allowing us to access any files. It would immediately log out if we clicked on a file. We called customer support and they said to leave it plugged in for 24 hours and see if it would reset itself. It eventually ended up letting us open up files, but it is now super slow. The second one started having trouble a few months after the first one. When plugged in, it would not pop up, making it impossible for us to get the data from it. It would show up on a PC, but it said critical error, and wouldn't open. My husband called customer support, and they said they would send a new one, but that is not helpful for the 2 TB of pictures that are on the one that isn't working! Also, when he got the email about replacing it, they do not provide any service to recover the data, so we have to pay to recover the data and then pay to ship the hard drive back to them before they will give us a new one. We definitely don't want to use the same brand of hard drive if we can't trust it, so we definitely don't want another one, and to not even offer to recover the data for us for free is ridiculous. The third one we have hardly used, and will NOT use at this point since we are 0/2 on the first two. Please don't waste your money on these like we did! That was several hundred dollars down the drain!

I would have given it 5 stars if it wasn’t for last summer experience. Within 2 months of purchase of a new one (I have 6 so far, showing how reliable I considered them to be) but this one all of the sudden started to slow down, glitch and then became unreadable. I’ve lost very important material and Crucial did not took any responsibility even when it fell under warranty, it had not be misused and its state was under the requirements. It is this why I am giving it a poor review.

Excellent option to save high resolution videos and photos, if you have an iPhone 15 pro max it helps to use it even more

Excellent product, I've used it with Mac OS and Windows and it worked as a charm!

As advertised, and easy to setup and use. Glad I purchased and I recommend to all.

Not the best not the worst bought this because I did not want to have to but a new sata connection. Without doing any reasearch I thought this would be great for games so I can take advantage of my GB/s speed but instead when I install a game it takes hours for a game under 100Gb..

Great product! I love it. Very fast transfer speeds.

Fast drive BUT could not be read on my Mac after a very short period. Was formatted as X-Fat out of the box and as required and was able to record video but could not download. Crucial simply I use a PC to recover. I use Macs. I will return drive and buy another brand

Drive died after 6 months. It took me about an hour chatting with Crucial to get approved for an RMA. What's terrible is that you have to cover shipping to Crucial and once they receive the device it takes 7-10 business days for them to inspect ship replacement. Figure another 3-5 days to receive the replacement. All in all, I'm out a drive that I use daily for work for nearly a month. Even if it gets replaced, I'm not sure I can trust the replacement not to have the same issue in 6 months. I'll never purchase another Crucial product.

Purchased as a content creator - I'm a photographer for a major brand - issues started immediately! Didnt transfer all of my photos from a photoshoot. On top of that, after I had all the images loaded into lightroom and majority of them edited, when i try to reopen the catalog saved to this harddrive, LR crashes instantly. After re-plugging in the drive, half of my images from the first shoot uploaded to the drive were magically gone. RETURNING ASAP DO NOT BUY THIS GARBAGE DRIVE.

This SSD doesn't have the password protection feature because Crucial never released the program (was supposed to be released in Sept 2023). So you have to use bitlocker or some other method. I spent a few hours trying to figure out how to password protect it easily. Additionally, the Crucial software did not pick up the drive right away (only showed 3gb usable), but some how my samsung magician saw it properly. For the price point, just go buy a Samsung T9, you also get 2x Free USB cables with that drive, much better value. Samsung overall is much more refined. Samsung has a built-in password software that comes on the drive. Took me minutes to setup vs hours to not even get Crucial to work.

Stopped working less than a week with over a 1.5TB of files on luckily had a backup, but I would never use this drive again.

Irrecoverably corrupted within a couple months of purchase and lost all data. No warning.

Drive failed after very little usage. Will not allow itself to be reformatted

Crashed 1st use. Corrupted files. Second drive seemed to work ok. But idk if i fully trust them.
