Pros:

Great price for the SSD, although not the best obviously

I would recommend this to people like me that do not need all that blazing speed. It really saves up my money so that I can spend it on things that can push more frames for me in games.

  • And to think this is one of the slower SSDs you can find - insane
  • I don't need all that cutting edge performance because I just do regular stuff like browse the web, watch Twitch/YouTube, and game (not...
Cons:
  • I had this SSD for a few months and it would intermittently cause the OS to freeze, especially when starting up a VM
  • Upon searching I found that there was a firmware update for the SSD - 60AABBF0.
