Technical_user 6/17/2013 8:04:01 AM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 5/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5New life to an 4 year old laptop Pros: fast drive, good pricing, great read and write speeds. Cons: None so far. Other Thoughts: I had this installed in an old Toshiba laptop (T8100 Intel, 4GB RAM). Great improvement - put a grin on my face. Windows opens and closes like never before. It feels like a whole new laptop. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!

LoweRider 6/12/2013 3:56:44 PM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 2/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 1/5very disappointed Pros: I dont have anything good to say about this drive, other than it works and has a larger capacity than my previous SSD Cons: This SSD is slower than my previous Corsair Force GT SSD, which was only 60GB. Booting time takes longer than on the old SSD. I bought this drive to put Planetside 2 on to reduce to long load times it had on the hard drive i use for my games, bit guess what? loading times are still the same. Other Thoughts: If you want to buy an SSD, avoid this one like the plague. buy another brand. It's only as fast as a regular hard drive. I regret spending the $135 for this junk. Manufacturer Response: Dear LoweRider, This seems like an issue we can help you with. Please take a moment to visit our Support Forum where we can assess what speeds you are seeing and assist in setup. This drive should be functioning noticeably faster than a HDD - even a slower SSD would still function a lot faster based on the latency/access differences alone. We look forward to assisting!

N/A 6/10/2013 11:10:54 AM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 4/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Good Solid SSD Pros: I'm coming up on one year with this drive, and its been really good so far. I have also used SSD's form other manufactures in the past too, and this is not as fast as those, but as far as I'm concerned its plenty fast for me. Cons: Not quite as fast as other SSD producers, such as, Int.. and Sam.. Other Thoughts: Still a great deal, and as far as I know, great reliability, which is much more important than speed anyways. 0 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you?

Av94 6/5/2013 3:00:39 PM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 4/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Speedy Pros: Fast, but not as fast as my 840 Pro, but for the price, I don't care. Bought it for my brothers computer. Did a fresh install, but after that, computer kept on blue screening. Tossed the drive into my computer and updated. Reinstalled windows on my brothers computer again and it has been stable ever since. No issues. Cons: Not really a con, but make sure you update the firmware, or else you might run into instability. Other Thoughts: Good price, good product. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!

N/A 5/30/2013 2:27:07 PM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 4/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5 Pros: Fast, high capacity for the price. Excellent for OS and all programs. Cons: Difficult to install. Took several tries to find the right directions and screw mounts to make it fit in my case. Other Thoughts: Wasn't gonna buy this. but for the price and increase in speed i'm very glad I did. Still need a large HDD to store other data, but this is more than enough for OS and all programs. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
