I was looking for a replacement SSD for my 750GB mechanical hard drive. It was either that or upgrade my computer to a faster processor. The SSD sped up my computer significantly. Tasks that were taking a long time as software updates made the softw...

make sure you install latest firware
had no luck in a Dell XPS until I updated using the Crucial M500 U03 firmware. Worked great after that.

Nice product, nice price.
Bought this for my 2009 27" iMac, seemed a good replacement for the 1TB built in spinner. Had no trouble from it so far, speed improvement is fantastic. Tried putting an SSD into a MacBook previously and the MacBook wouldn't take it, so very happy that this worked first time.

"Great budget SSD"
Introduction I decided to purchase this SSD to replace the HDD in my laptop around 6 months ago. It is a decision I do not regret one bit. I have experienced pretty much instant loading times, improved battery life, and a reduction in system temperature since the switch, and it has certainly...
Pros:
- Cheap compared to competitors
- low power consumption
- low operating temperature
Cons:
- Still expensive compared to HDDs

All in all I'm very pleased with this drive. The price was unbeatable for this capacity - under 50 cents per GB! Functionally, it may be somewhat slower in some types of writes and reads but you've be very hard to notice it in actual usage.
Pros:
- Great Value
- Huge capacity
- Reliable
- MLC NAND not TLC for longer life
- 7mm case fits everywhere
Cons:
- Very high density NAND is a little slower in some tests, Couple of reallocated sectors since day one
- Common for M5 drives apparently, Had to Power Cycle laptop a few times because BIOS couldn't find the drive sometimes
- Has been solid since this was done.

All in all, it's a great little SSD. Worth every penny.
Let me introduce myself. I am a huge computer nerd. I have been dismantling computers from the age of 16, back when I got my first AMD K6 PC. After a week my Windows 98SE packed in, and because I had no money to pay a professional to fix it, I did the unthinkable and started tinkering with it...

Killer add-on for newer ultrabooks
Incredible performance. I plugged this into my Ultrabook which now just flies along on Windows 8. The transfer speeds are incredible and the laptop boots up in under 10 seconds.

and now starting windows and opening programs is a whole lot better. highly recommended
Fast and reliable SSD, as most Curcial products are. It might not be the fastest one around but works perfectly to replace a regular HDD on and laptop/desktop, and now starting windows and opening programs is a whole lot better. highly recommended.
