Customers are saying

Customers are pleased with the CS1311 240 GB Internal SATA III Solid State Drive's performance, ease of installation, and the improvement in boot times it provides. Many appreciate its affordability and the fact that it's a solid-state drive, resulting in a quieter and cooler operating experience compared to traditional hard drives.

    Bought for an old 2012 Zenbook UX32A DB31, gives new life to an old beginner notebook. Has been working perfectly since installation. Only complaint is that it says it comes with Acronia Tru image software but there's no insert or explanation as to how to activate. Had to find an alternative for cloning software.

    I love the Geek Squad and the quickness of repairs. My daughter's computer was a mess and within a day it was repaired and back in her hands. School can now commence :)

    Is much cooler than traditional disk drives. Working well in my Point of sale (ffs, really Best Buy? The anacronym for that is "inappropriate language") terminal.

    Takes great photos and the zoom is terrific. It fits in the palm of my hand. I liked it so much that I went back and bought the same model for underwater photography.

    Added this drive to older (vista age) HP laptop. Installed Mint 18 for o.s. & it flies through boot and other operations. Uses less battery power than old hd.

    Against my better judgment of buying another PNY product and getting burned, this is what was in stock, so this is what I ended up with. It works fine, no issues, and not DOA. I docked a star because it didn't come with a 3.5" adapter, which previous SSDs I've purchased did include in the past.

    I was skeptical at first about going to this solid state drive however after installing and transferring all my data I am pleased with my purchase.

    Was trading up from a 120 GB SSD - windows OS occupies about 90 gigs so not a lot of overhead for clutter files - wanted the extra overhead to put pagefiles on the SSD as well. Much easier to mirror the smaller SSD into a larger one than the original transfer from hard disk to SSD.

    Upgrade my Mid 2010 MacBook Pro and it has given that old laptop new life. Boot -up time was reduced by 65%, application starts up faster.

    Install was just like a regular hard drive. Loading Windows was much faster than normal and response was better than expected. Great upgrade.

    I bought this 250GB and loaded windows 7 on it for a laptop. After 2 weeks of operation the drive crashed and blue screen from a corrupted Windows 7 boot record. Usually buy the samsung evo but the Jacksonville/Orange Park store did carry the Samsung and out of stock.

    I chose the PNY SSD for an upgrade on a old desktop due to budget. I was surprised how fast it ran (comparing to other brand name ssds)

    This SSD was added to a 7 year old desktop running Windows 10. Startup and availability time went from about a minute to 20 seconds.

    Didn't have any problem with it at all. Recognized the first time I plugged it in. Not the fastest SSD but def better than a HDD.
