    Very easy to install. It takes a little bit of knowledge to transfer all files and clean the old drive and use it as a secondary. My laptop is 4 years old and it was getting too slow. Add this and upgrade the ram from 6GB to 16GB and now it runs like new, it is as fast as any new laptop.

    Purchased this SSD for a desktop computer than had a SATA HDD installed from the factory and was suffering slowness due to the physical HDD. Installed the SSD and cloned the system drive to it. Increase in desktop performance was substantial. Happy with the purchase.

    Has held up for over two years, have it installed on a small setup, no issues. Although at this point 1 TB are pretty much standard, and have since upgraded to a larger storage.

    Got a laptop for graduation from my grandparents. It died and the screen would not come on, less than a year after receivingthe laptop. I had papers for school due and did not want to travel back and forth to the college library. I went to Best Best and the geek squad fixed is and got me on my way in less than 12 hours. Laptop works great now and i have not had a problem since. They saved me....
