Review: Amazing - I purchased this SSD hard drive, and I have been incredibly impressed with its performance. This hard drive has exceeded my expectations in terms of speed, reliability, and overall quality. First and foremost, the SSD hard drive has dramatically improved the speed of my computer. Starting up the PC and opening applications takes a fraction of the time it used to with my old hard drive. The read and write speeds are incredibly fast, and I have noticed a significant improvement in the speed of my day-to-day work. Additionally, the SSD hard drive is incredibly reliable. It's built to last, and I haven't had any issues with data loss or corruption. This reliability is crucial for me as I store important files on my hard drive, and I can't afford to lose them due to a hard drive malfunction. The overall quality of the SSD hard drive is also impressive. It's solidly built, and the design is sleek and modern. It looks fantastic in my setup, and the compact size means that it doesn't take up much space on my desk. Finally, I want to mention how easy it was to install. It was a straightforward process, and I had it up and running in no time. The user-friendly installation software made the process even simpler. Overall, I would highly recommend this SSD hard drive to anyone looking to improve the performance and reliability of their computer. Its impressive speed, reliability, and overall quality make it an excellent choice for anyone looking for a high-performance hard drive that will stand the test of time.
Review: Lightning fast - First impressions were on receipt. Ths SSD is so light, that initially, on receipt, I thought there was nothing in the box (actually lighter than a floppy disk ! which is amazing OK down to facts: Very easy to install. If you are fortunate, the SSD will fit exactly into the old frame, everything should line up nicely (I have a HP Pavilion Entertainment This machine is running good after 10 years. I Purchased a Win 7 disc with a bonus disk of additional drivers. Loaded to the SSD which BTW you do not have to format, or partition, just leave the new drive Unallocated, and the Win 7 disc will do the rest Results after loading with Win 7 A quick test Power down the laptop Power on after after brief 10seconds, and My God, this is where you will see a remarkable difference Previously, the old HDD took about 2 minutes or more at times to reach the Desktop, which included router activation kicking in and settling down (am running Broadband BTW, out of choice. Now the SSD kicks in immediately with super speed, reaching Desktop in approximately 25 SECONDS, ready to go, equating to about FIVE times faster Will be interesting to see how things go after a few months...I don't expect anything less than this speed One good thing is, I won't bother getting fibre connection as my brother tell me he is getting the same speed results with his fibre connection as I am with plain Broadband Overall, a fantastic drive, well worth the outlay. Easy to install and you won't regret swapping this for your old slow outdated HDD.. Go for it and enjoy

## Questions & Answers

**Q: ssd 3d mac early 2011 compatibility**
A: I installed this drive yesterday into Late 2011 MacBook Pro and swapped out the two 2gb RAM sticks with two 4gb RAM sticks. The new speed and performance is amazing. You will need a USB to SATA cable to connect the new SSD to your MacBook to clone the hard drive.  I downloaded freeware called Super Duper to clone drive. Then I removed ten tiny screws to access back of laptop. Four more screws hold hard drive in place and four star drive screws have to be swapped onto new SSD. Download the user guide from Apple for your model for steps and pictures of operation. The memory swap was easy, just plastic tabs holding sticks in place.

**Q: Will this work with win xp sp3?**
A: I have a Western Digital 320GB 10,000 RPM Velociraptor in my old XP machine. I keep it for offline use with the programs that I do not want to upgrade. They work fine, so there is no use in spending money on newer versions. The XP machine is old, but I built it well and it is as fast with XP as most new machines are with bloated 7 and 10. If you can't find a reasonably priced WD Velociraptor, then a WD Blue 7200 RPM drive will put new life into your old XP machine. I will keep mine until lightening, or something as sinister, destroys it, but it doesn't go online anymore.

**Q: What’s in the box drive, wires, etc...?**
A: No wires, just the 500 GB SSD.

**Q: If i use a sata to usb 3.1 cable, will this work on my xbox one s?**
A: You need a USB 3.0 SATA III Hard Drive Adapter Cable for 2.5 Inch SSD & HDD
