    I put this in an older laptop to replace the mechanical drive. Not only did it provide four times the disk space the increased speed is noticeable. It was on sale too. Such a deal.

    I purchased two of these drives for use as boot drives in two different systems and they are working flawlessly. The clean installation went well and the systems have been running great. I was replacing older smaller SSD units with these new units. While the performance specs and cool factor was not as high as other drives, I am extremely happy with my purchase. The way the drive utilizes the better NAND units to buffer writes seems to be working very well.

    Since switching to this HD all of my professional programs run much faster with no lag. I think I'll replace every hard drive with one of these.

    The single best upgrade you can make to any computer is swapping out the hard disk drive for an SSD. I absolutely recommend it. The only thing to be aware of is that this is sized for a laptop. You'll need an adaptor to properly use it in a desktop PC.

    Did my research and this SSD has the best performance for the size. Best Buy has the best price for a new in box item. I would highly recommend this drive at Best Buy.

    SanDisk - Ultra II 960GB Solid State Drive

    I love this solid state drive - as much as you can love a disc drive which is not a disc drive. I had a drive failure and had to replace the drive. The Geek Squad recommended this solid state drive. I will never have another laptop without a solid state drive. The laptop boots almost instantly. Virtually no latency at all, ever. Windows background operations no longer cause any performance degradation. I'm all smiles.

    I decided to purchase the sandisk Ssd for two reasons, reviews I read and price over the Samsung. I am very happy with the results since I installed it myself, thank you to the youtubers!!! I thought it would be a little faster, but Its faster than it was prior!

    I bought this SSD to replace a smaller SSD from another manufacturer. While I like the extra space my Windows performance spec decreased slightly. Still, speed is good and the sale price I got make this an excellent value. Way better than the old mechanical drive I used before the smaller SSD. Install was a snap, especially since the included software included a limited Acronis cloning software. This made migrating a non-event. In my experience, other SSD vendors don't include cloning software and that makes migrating more difficult or an additional purchase for cloning software.

    Decided to upgrade from a regular hard drive to a SSD. I had upgraded to Windows 10 and even though the Western Digital Black 1TB had worked very well, I was looking for something faster boot and working with video processing ability. This drive has worked great and much faster boot and large capacity for everything, but I do plan on using the WD as a storage media device

    This is an incredible piece of hardware that offers blazing access speed and a large amount of storage space. There are many manufacturers of HDs and SSDs, but Sandisk is, in my opinion based on past experience, the most reliable of all. This item continues that tradition of reliability and performance, and I'd definitely recommend purchasing this model over others.

    SSD = Much Faster

    I got this to replace a hybrid drive that had crashed. This is much faster. It takes 15-20 seconds to boot up as compared with 2-3 minutes. As the cost of SSD drives has come down, I will never have another computer where at least the boot drive is not solid state. I cannot comment on the longevity of this drive yet, as I have only had it for a month or two.
