Upgraded Speeds & Reliability
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just upgraded my laptop from a 7200rpm HDD to this SSD! Now I'm enjoying quicker boot time, quicker app launch & even quicker refresh in desktop :P. Well, this is my 3rd SSD & 1st from SanDisk. Installation was straight forward on my HP Envy M6-k010dx sleekbook (an AMD A10 machine). One noticeable absence is the lack of cloning software in the box. But, I learnt a very important lesson about cloning software by installing other SSD's. I find myself comfortable using "Macrium Reflect" for cloning, which free, very very easy to use & very fast. All you have to do is connect the new SSD with the computer with a SATA cable, run the software & about 10 clicks :P. BTW, read speed of this drive is very impressive. I got 548.9 MB/s sequential read & 376 MB/s sequential write. Its a GREAT drive, highly recommended!

Great price. Works well.

The drive works well and has been totally compatible with this setup. System running 24/7 mining ethereum when not used for machine learning or artificial intelligence.

Good Value:Quality, not mounting screws or CD
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have yet to dive into the world of Solid State Drives. My first step was to purchase an inexpensive SSD with enough space for my operating system and programs to run on it. I have a few other hard drives, 2x 500GB, which the Maxtor 500 is in the PC with my new SSD , but for storage only. I have tested it yet but I've noticed that Windows loads almost instantaneously. After I enter my password 5 second later I could be on Chrome or running some type of app, where as, with the HDD's, it seems like it took a few minutes of loading things before I could browse around my computer. 4 Stars, because the price for quality seems to be very fair. With SanDisk, they are probably my go to brand when I don't wanna spend a whole lot but I want a decent amount of memory. The 4-stars is because it came in a packaging that basically says what the actually SSD says or is printed on. SD SSD Plus, but I didn't get a disk for a driver or programs to determine the status of my drive. I didn't even realize that there was not a space in my Tower (it's a few years old) to install it, and even if it had a place for it, the SSD didn't come with screws of cables either.

What experts are saying
Q: QuestionDoes this SSD come with the cloning software needed to transfer my OS, etc from my current drive? If not, can I get decent cloning software cheaply?
Asked by Doublecheck.
- A:Answer You can download Ease US ToDo to clone.
Answered by MattL
Q: QuestionIs this actually SLC Nand. I Was under the impression that the SSDPlus was MLC. It also states it goes up to 600Mbs but is that through the sata 3 connecter?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer this is indeed a SLC drive best buy advertises speeds to 600 MB/s but i have an unopened one still in package that clearly states "up to 530MB/s seq read speed" so either best buy did something to improve the speed or they are advertising wrong speed.

Make sure you have a backup before removing the hard drive.

Q: QuestionHow does one install the Sandisk - 240gb Internal Sata Solid State Drive Plus For Laptops?
Asked by elsiethecow.
- A:Answer You should probably do a Google search for replacing the hard drive on your particular make/model of laptop. There are lots of tutorials out there for many different laptops. The generic instructions are: 1. Clone the existing hard drive onto the SSD connected to the computer using a USB adapter. 2. Open the laptop and remove the existing drive. 3. Insert and connect the SSD in the old drive's place. 4. Boot normally. If you don't want to/can't clone the old hard drive's contents to the new SSD, you can do a fresh install of Windows instead, but your data will need to be transferred to the new drive somehow if you want it.

Q: QuestionThe drive thickness is listed as "0.3 inches". Drive specs are made to millimeters dimensions Such as 7 mm, 9 mm, etc. So is this really 8 mm, 7 mm or 7.5 mm? It really matters, because notebook manufacturers really do make the fit that close.
Asked by Simpleton.
- A:Answer According to Amazon specs... It is a 7mm drive.

Q: QuestionWill this drive work with a mac mini computer? Also does it have cloning software?
Asked by tsaw.
- A:Answer This drive can be installed in a Mac mini, but does not include any software. There are plenty of apps available to do the cloning though.
Answered by Gary
Q: QuestionCan this drive be used externally with a 2.5 enclosure, I want to use it to transfer data from an old laptop drive that's close to dieing ?
Asked by Palmviperhit.
- A:Answer I would use a USB external drive to get data off an old laptop HD instead. The SSD is a SATA drive, so you would need some kind of SATA plug and a way to get power to the drive too. A USB would be much easier.
