SSD good, software dubious 06/25/2012
This review is from: Intel 330 Series Maple Crest 2.5" 60GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) SSDSC2CT060A3K5
Pros:
The SSD itself works great so far. Win 7 boot time went from 42 to 15 seconds. Initial Firefox launch from 26 seconds to 5 seconds.
Cons:
The migration software was useless to me. I have a multiple logical drives on the hard disc and wanted to move only c: to the SSD. The software just won't do it. It's the whole disc or nothing, and if the SSD won't hold the data on all your logical drives, you're just plain out-of-luck. You must find another way to clone the c: drive to the SSD. More $$$ is you don't already have something.
Overall Review:
The migration software was worse than useless, as it installed automatic startup services on the computer. So after being no help, it hangs around and uses up your machine resources. Why does a utility you use one time push its tentacles into the OS? When you're done cloning the disc, uninstall the dang utility!
