Crucial M500 960GB

We've said for quite some time that the biggest performance increase you'll see in a system upgrade these days it moving to a Solid State Drive. The improvements of an SSD, in our opinion, are nothing short of astounding.
Pros:
  • Sleek design
  • Excellent incompressible data results
  • Great value
  • Massive storage capacity
Cons:
  • Not the fastest on the market

Boot Win8 in 8.5sec, much faster respond time, no sound, less heat and longer battery time. Highly recommend and will buy the larger size SDD when the price comes down.

When asked at CES about the M500 price points, we were told the 960GB model would hit the $600 price point and the other capacity would scale from there. Although not specifically stated, I took that to mean $300 for the 480GB, $150 for the 240GB and around $75 for the 120GB.
