    The washer did not have a hose and when the delivery driver came back he brought one that didn't fit so he thought. When my husband got home he had to go to the store and buy the correct hose and finish it up.

    Worked great... for 6 months

    Everything was great until one day, about 6 months after install, it just stopped working. I was only using it as the boot drive, so one day I started up the computer and got the Windows Recovery screen. The SSD was not recognized in diskpart or chkdsk. I tried attaching it to a SDI port that I know works and still nothing. I took it to Geek Squad and they verified it is not working. I might have just won the bad drive lottery, but I bought a Samsung as a replacement and submitted a request with SanDisk to send me a replacement. Definitely not comfortable relying on the replacement as my primary boot drive. Or to store anything important on.

    I told them to replace my hard drive. My HD was a 1TB, why did they put a 512GB in. I just notice when I started downloading all my stuff that I had on my old HD and now I'm running out of space, How irresponsible is that. I am really mad.

    SanDisk makes quality products, but mine died after about 5 weeks of use, after I replaced my HDD in my Pc. I would still purchase from SanDisk in the future.

    Got the drive on 11/10. Drive died on 11/30. Failure started when Windows crashed with a BSOD. After restart the bios showed no drive present. Power cycled a couple more times and drive showed up. SMART checks passed. It booted one last time. Got another BSOD and the drive has not shown up in the bios since. Connected it to a separate computer known to work and same result. Awesome :-\

    I am an experienced trouble shooter and after several hours I could not get this drive to be recognized by the sandisk software or win 7 in general. Thinking the drive itself was bad I exchanged it for another one of the same. Same problem. The software itself is junk. I used the disk software to generate a report and it was now where to be found. I wont bore you with the details but I would not want this drive if it were free.

    Although this product did stop my laptop from locking up frequently. It didn't speed up the processing time that I was looking for.

    Maybe mine was just faulty or something, but within about a month and a half, maybe even less, it just stopped accepting any reads or writes, barely allowing me to even confirm its presence in the system. First SSD I’ve actually had fail on me, believe it or not. Was frustrating. And before you ask, no, I didn’t do anything abnormally intense on this drive.

    I bought this hard drive April 10, 2019. It is now June 16th and the computer will no longer boot with it. It says I’m past the time to return the hard drive but I think I should be able to swap it for the same product since it didn’t even last!!!! If you want a solid state drive that’s going to last pass this one up. Literally $ down the drain for a product that doesn’t hold up.

    Disappointed to how the manners of the manager named Isis i believe handeld the situation yesterday. As a manager, she could have " sorry for the inconvenience and the delay " instead said nothing and acted like we bothered her instead.

    I wanted to exchange this unopened product for a larger drive and they refused to even make an exception beyond their 2wk return policy. Will never buy electronics here again. What's the point? Amazon has you beat.
