SSD
Great drive with lots of speed. Hope it lasts and doesnt crap out after a year or so. Downgraded it because it didnt include an adapter for a 3.5 slot.
Pros:
- Great drive
- Gave me the extra speed I needed for the computer I use as a small business server
Cons:
- said comes with a adapter but I had to order one that would work in a 3.5 slot

Lightning fast and dependable
Fast, lightweight, the 480gb version seems to hit the sweet spot between price and capacity. I use mine as a portable drive (without a case) which I plug into a SIIG mini-doc. (I do had a case for transport to protect the drive in my briefcase).
Pros:
- Fast
- Highly Compatible
- Quiet
Cons:
- Expensive

One of the best things I have bought for a PC ever.
I've been using this for a while now and can safely say I would not go back to a normal HDD as a boot disc. Booting up my machine is now fast enough I no longer put off reboots. I use this as my main drive and keep media files on a secondary drive where speed is less important and it has made more...

Would recommend price depending, a good run SSD, if you just need a SSD
Just another SSD, average speeds and this is you get what you pay for in this one. Would recommend price depending, was a really good replacement for my gaming pc.

Crucial M500 480GB SSD Review
The drive itself comes in a shiny 7mm silver enclosure, so you can jam it into an Ultrabook. A 9.5mm spacer is also included, but there is no 3.5-inch adapter in the box, nor is there any software in the box or online aside from a firmware updating tool, which is disappointing.
Pros:
- Fastest drive in its class by a hair
- great value
Cons:
- Bare-bones bundle
- 3 year warranty
