The hard disc in my laptop started to have issues so I started looking for an SSD replacement to save battery power and improve reliability. This drive does both, plus it is far faster than the HDD it replaced. The Geeks installed it and reloaded my op system and everything works as well or better than new.

I have a old MacBook Pro (mid 2012) and wanted to bring it back into my current flow. I mainly want to use for editing photos on location. So just wanted to beef up the computer without buying a whole new one.
All my SD cards are Sansdisk so didn't have a problem trusting them at all.
Bought 2 of the Scandisk Ultra II 480gb and put them in Raid 0 configuration and now my computer boots up in less then 10 secs,
Even transfer files was super fast.
Currently working perfectly in my MacBook Pro.
If I can get another 2 - 3 more years out this computer then the price of these SSD are totally worth it. Plus I bought them on sale, so thats a plus.
Even bought a Scandisk Ultra II 960gb for my Mac mini and it was works with no problem also.
I definitely would purchase again and probably will.

Fast, smooth performance in a purpose-built gaming PC with enough storage space to fill my needs and then some. The original 128 GB Sandisk SSD from the build seemed like enough, but that was a miscalculation on my part. This drive installed easily, once I figured out to remove the front cover on the tower.

I had a different brand SSD that was a few years old and encountering some problems. So I picked this one up. Easy to install (at least in my laptop it is easy). It is FAST and has great capacity. SSD is SO much faster than the hard drives that manufacturers ship in laptops and desktops.

Wow, big difference on the boot and app load for the PC. I can do a CTRL + ALT + DEL to reboot the PC and its ready for me to log back in within 7 seconds. Apps load a lot faster too and the PC just appears to be much smoother.
