Review: Best, Dollar For Dollar, Laptop Upgrade w/ Easy Cloning - I bought this SSD for a 5 year old Asus laptop with a simple Core i3 setup with just 6GB RAM. I found free cloning software online, and also bought a wire which I highly recommend, which will come in handy every time you need to upgrade an old laptop to SSD from it's original HDD. The wire you need to make this amazingly easy is USB to SATA. One end is standard USB (works with USB 2.0 and 3.0) and the other end is easy, plug-in to any 2.5" SATA SSD (has both the SATA and power, all in one, wide plug.) Just download your favorite cloning software, plug in the drive, plug in to the laptop, clone, then shut down, unplug and swap out the drives on the inside. Booted quickly without any problem. All programs, apps and data were there, and ran much faster with seek times far better than with the old, standard HDD. IMO, the best value to revive an old laptop. The difference is astonishing, even on a mediocre 6GB RAM, Core i3 rig. Buy that wire. It will come in handy, over and over again, because once you see how easy it is to revive an old laptop, you will be doing it for the whole family and the neighbors as well as they order new SSDs. Bottom line: For less than $30, this Crucial SSD revived a laptop to astonishingly improved speed and boot time. Need more space, splurge for 1TB and have the same speed and quality with even more storage. An easy "clone and swap." (Best with that wire, USB to SATA.) Not included. After this purchase, I bought 2 more, immediately, and did to more laptops. All had the same, flawless result and booted on the first try after cloning. Wild Card: Longevity of the drive unknown, but I hear that Crucial is an excellent brand, even this model being one prior to their newest model. I also bought and installed an "ADATA" brand SSD, and it works as well, but again, we'll see which wins longevity. These days, you should have backups of your important data anyhow.
Review: This is a good drive. Let's set some facts straight. - Ok there's a few fake reviews below OR maybe they were written for a different device. Here are the FACTS!. The Sata III interface was designed for and cannot exceed 550 mbps per second. That being said there are a few Samsung drives USING SAMSUNG MAGICIAN SOFTWARE ON A CLEAN WINDOWS INSTALL UNDER LABORATORY TEST CONDITIONS that have hit the 700mbps mark. That is the ONLY exception as of this writing. FACT. Motorized hard drives have a 7 to 10 millisecond seek time before they can read or write files, also under ideal conditions on a clean install of ANY operating system, Linux, Windows or Mac. Solid state drives do not have ANY seek time so they are faster by design. FACT: When you clean install windows or any other operating system it installs itself according to the hardware it is installed to and discards the drivers and code it does not need, and optimizes itself to that machine. If you clone that operating system to the same machine with a new drive IT CANNOT re optimize itself a second time, whether its a motorized drive or solid state. also some drivers may not survive the cloning and you will only get a slight performance gain.. THIS IS NORMAL. The ONLY reason for EVER cloning a drive is because of software or user files that cannot ever be replaced or just being too lazy to do it properly. Nothing can compare to a clean install done correctly. All this being said, this is a great budget drive and for the money its hard to beat FOR EVERYDAY COMPUTING. I have installed and sold several of these and none have ever failed. The performance is better than most average SSD's but it wasn't designed to compete with the Samsung, OCZ or any other so called "GAMING" drives which is a marketing cliche anyway honestly. This is a MAINSTREAM BUDGET drive and done correctly in any machine will perform very well on a clean install and last a long time when properly maintained. When people write reviews you need to be comparing exact apples to apples. I would not recommend this to a performance minded overclocking gamer, they will be disappointed but for every day use its hard to beat and can't be beat at this price point. If you want more performance then get a Crucial MX series drive. The BX series is typical mainstream. The both are built with JMicron chips but the MX is a bit faster, just like ram and other things there are levels to this. I hope this actually helps someone and informs the rest. Don't write bad or negative reviews when your trying to compare a ham sandwich to a lobster or steak dinner. Compared to a PNY or SanDisk, this is definitely a better drive but its not going to keep up with a performance drive, not even in it's own brand. Its just that simple. You get what you pay for.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It's work!
*by T***L on September 13, 2019*

I was worried about buying any hard drive because of all the nasty reviews about it's not working or it's slow. I brought this one as a test, cause I didn't want to waste money on a "dead" drive. I plugged this into a HDD/SSD case and when I plugged it in with 3.0 USB. Nothing happened, I realized that I had to format the drive cause it had no partition tables or file systems. It's fast and easy to use, kinda like plug and play. I have Linux 4 with partitions and 1 partition for windows. Works perfect when booting on Linux or accessing my windows files off my laptop. So anyone saying it's dead or doesn't work. Try to format the drive in Gparted (Linux), Disk Management (Windows) or Disk Utility (Mac). Depending on what system is what file system you want but I am not here to educate. Search it up before leaving bad reviews confusing people like me. I would buy again simple because they are small company, big companies aren't user friendly in my opinion. Also if you getting this for a iMac, depending on the model you may need a USB dock with power because I tried today and iMac Pro said USB Device taking to much power while windows and Linux had no problems.
