after a year of working with the San Disk Extreme 480 GB, it broke down and is inaccessible, not to recommend because of bad quality

SanDisk is a world leading producer in NAND flash and NAND flash products. From consumer SD cards and USB drives to OEM flash storage, SanDisk is everywhere in this market. Just a few months ago, they released their highest end, enthusiast class SSD, the Extreme Pro.

The SanDisk Ultra II SSD delivers the goods as a budget solid-state drive (SSD). The new internal storage device is available in 120GB, 240GB, 480GB, and 960GB capacities that cost just $80, $108, $219 and $495, respectively. This is proving to be, for the most part, a new low in SSD pricing.

The SanDisk Ultra II SSD delivers good performance, and its high-capacity versions are currently the most affordable on the market; The drive includes helpful software

The drive's 120GB version is comparatively expensive; The three-year warranty is not as long as might be expected

The projections show TLC flash will overtake MLC in volume shipped in the next couple of years. SSDs couldn't stay enthusiast parts forever. The low prices we've seen for the last few months are just the start as companies race to get the lowest cost per gigabyte drives to market since that's what...

Sandisk is making a clever move with this Ultra II TLC based SSD series. The trick is to bring the prices down in a very competitive market. The latest iterations from Micron and Samsung make this a hard to dominate domain.

Swapped out the old 320GB 2.5'' 7200RPM in my laptop drive with the Sandisk Ultra II 480GB. It was very small and light. Reinstalled windows 7 Ultimate and all the apps. The 6 year old computer ran MUCH MUCH faster booting up or shutting down. Programs opened instantly after clicking.

Bought this to give my laptop some spring in its step, and its working out awesomely. I used to have to wait five to ten minutes after a complete shutdown for the old hybrid SSHD to get back up to speed, and now its popping on like smart phone.

Have 4 of these in different capacities, they work great. I use them with the Black magic recorder, and have 3 installed as SSD upgrades for iMacs and a Mac Pro

Here we have our first our first product from SanDisk at pcGameware and it puts up a stirling performance all round, but how does it compare to our previously tested SSDs?

Brilliant drive, works flawlessly as my main drive. As fast as I need, buyers beware, SSDs should be not be kept filled beyond 75% capacity to optimise the endurance of the drive.
