SAMSUNG 840 Series MZ-7TD250BW 2.5" 250GB SATA III Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)

Pros: Faster than any HDD i previously used

Cons: Well, I couldnt get it to work, It was unconpatible with the AMD 970 Chipset on my asus motherboard. I couldnt install/run anything, it would lagg insanely...

Pros: I've had this drive for three months now. I just ordered a second one yesterday since it was on sale for like $160, and with free shipping it was a charm. Since i ordered in the morning, it came today even though i chose super egg saving shippping (4-7 business day)...so that just goes to show how quick newegg processes and ships their orders.

But for the drive itself, it's great for the price. You can't beat it. I also have an m4 crucial ssd 256 gb, and it performs faster as far as sequential reads. Boots much faster, and has been very reliable thus far.
The pricing is just unbeatable, especially with the sale price i bought it at NEW with a 3 year warranty. I'm happy to have 2 of these drives booting my desktop and laptop.

Cons: None whatsoever

Other Thoughts: Just wanna point out newegg's phenomenal shipping times. They are extraordinarily fast with every purchase I have made. Even faster sometimes than prime membership shipping at another site, you all may know of, at no extra costs.

Pros: If you want something fast, and big enough to store enough data with a peace of mind of crashing/losing it, this is what you're looking for.

Cons: -well product doesn't come with any bunkers or cables but you can always figure that out on your own.

Pros: Super Fast, Super Cool looking, Easy to install, Feels sturdy

Cons: None

Pros: Coming from 7200rpm hard drive and I have to say that SSD are amazing and I will never have a PC without one again. Got this on a promo code. Paid about 50 cents per GB so I couldn't say no.

Cons: Watch the connectors when installing. They feel flimsy and I did manage to chip the corner of the plastic on one.

Other Thoughts: If you haven't got an SSD yet buy one. It is worth it, trust me.

Pros: I do love this SSD window 8 starts up in less than 8 Sec. Apps load very fast.

Cons: Not the faster SSD out there Like my Ocz vector. But for the price it's good for what you get. Worth Buying.

Pros: SSD: Cost coming down. Samsung: Controller works w/ just about anything: I've had some issues w/ controller on other drives: OCZ (updates come out slow); and Sandisk (however SanDisk was on it and had updates rather quickly). None the less: this drive truly works: "out of the box". Drive is: Stupid fast!

Cons: Cost still a little high: Purchased this one for my Notebook but tried it out in my "Game Rig" (for benchmarking > see other thoughts). I've (because I'm so impressed) ordered the 500Gb model of the same drive for my Game rig. Might; no, would buy a second 1Gb model when they come out w/ it: wish they had a 2GbModel!?!

Other Thoughts: Just thought I'd post up some CrystalDiskMark Results (so everyone can see just how fast this disk >paired w/ the appropriate hardware< really is):

ASMedia 6Gb/s
(5k file read/write)
READ: 500.0MB/s
WRITE 257.3MB/s

Intel 3Gb/s
(5k file read/write)
READ: 270.2MB/s
WRITE: 258.0MB/s

Intel 6Gb/s (results):
(5k file read/write)
Read: 376.2
Write: 257.8

System Specs:
ASUS P8Z77-V
Intel Core I-5 3570K
Corsair Dominator 16GB 1600Mhz
Samsung SSD 840 (non-pro) series 250Gb
Corsair AX860i PSU
(everything running @ stock settings)

Pros: I put a lot of thought into deciding if i would buy a SSD or HDD and stumbled on this. it runs great. no noise at all. hardly even notice it's there

Cons: Not much room but thats my fault... I should've gotten a bigger SSD. now i plan on just buying an HDD to run with it

Pros: Very fast, thin, one of the best upgrades you will ever make. Less power, exponentially faster speeds than a HDD.

Cons: Wish it was cheaper?

Other Thoughts: I used this to replace a HDD from an ASUS Vivobook - X202e. They use 7mm thick 2.5" HDD's to make the laptops thinner.
-Everything fit great, computer boots up from total shutdown in 15 seconds. returns from sleep instantaneously.

Mine did not come with migration software, but Paragon's HDD to SSD software works great, as well as a few other free options out there.

Pros: At 530 MB/s read speed, it allows my pc to boot up to the desktop in around 10 - 15 seconds, and that includes me pausing to type my password in, very fast.
The other day my pc needed to be rebooted due to an update and I told my wife to watch, she now wants one for her laptop too!

Cons: My only complaint is that I wish I had enough money to get a larger capacity drive.

Other Thoughts: I think an SSD is what all PCs should have now. After working in the IT industry for several years, the most common complaint I hear from end users is "my pc is soooo slow in booting up" or it takes too long to load an application, etc. An SSD solves this with its very fast load times.
