The Good: The installation was the easy part but trying to do a ""clean install" was not as easy. There is lots of information about how to COPY the old hard drive (HD) over to the new Solid State Drive (SSD) but not so much, hardly any, about how to do a clean install and then copy ISP settings, emails, photos (into a new Photos application from iPhoto, and things like that. Copying documents was easy. Finally got there but not being a full-fledged computer guru, making the transfer of data, it wasn't the easiest. I did buy a case for the old HD which I would highly recommend and think that everyone would do that anyway. The new SSD boots in seconds, battery life is much longer, and everything is just sooo much faster. Editing Final Cut Pro X is a breeze. Also had upped the memory to 16 GB earlier but it was the new SSD install that really, really, helped. The good thing about having the old HD in a case is, if in the event there is a setup problem with the new drive and it takes time to resolve, one still has the old drive available and it can easily be popped back in. Bang-for-the-buck, this is an excellent upgrade. The Bad: There isn't anything bad abut the product. My clean install .... that's another story. Wish it could be made easier but it was worth the effort.Read full review

I couldn't find 2 mSATA SSDs to get the size RAID that I wanted, so I had to settle for this 1TB SSD from Crucial. Well worth the price since other brands at this size start at well over $300. Great for all the programs and games that I use frequently.

Easy to install, four screws in the bottom. Easy to set up, no special software, just connect sata io and power cable and install windows 7 or 8 or 10. Fast with windows 7, faster with windows 8, faster with windows 10; although i think the cortana and windows defector slows it down below the level of windows 7. Works perfect5 and eliminates the hard drive bottleneck.

Runs fast and now my laptop runs much cooler! Make sure your computer's BIOS is up-to-date. Also: (1) Follow all instructions (2) Install Crucial Storage Executive (3) Update SSD firmware (4) Enable "Momentum Cache"
