Upgraded
Pros: This item was easy to install and has improved the overall performance. The quick boot time of the computer was amazing.
Cons: No cons yet this little ssd still working hard.
Overall Review: I have three different brands of ssd and I don't do anything to crazy with any of my computers, so the difference between the speeds is not significant and unnoticeable.
Good price and great upgrade.
Pros: I bought this for a laptop that had the traditional hdd and it has improved the overall performance. Easy to install in the laptop and didn't have to anything or much once it was connected. The price was great and this brand has established itself as a leader in this market.
Cons: No cons yet the ssd still going strong.
Overall Review: I own three other brands of ssd's and this one boots the fastest by a couple seconds. Not a big deal to me unless I was in one of those movies where I had to download info or something before getting caught.
works very good
Pros: Opens and closes smoothly Does what I need it to do
Cons: No cons here yet will update if situation changes
Overall Review: So I replaced the drive that came with the computer since it wouldn't open up when the button was pushed. It was a hit or miss. And when it closes it would not be able to shut all the way. It seemed to get hung up on the bay door covering that goes up to conceal the drive. I replaced that faulty drive with this drive and it opens and closes smoothly with the first press of the button. I'm pretty sure that other drive was getting ready to kick the bucket.
Works for Me
Pros: Length is enough Cable works Color helps distinguish between other data devices 5 eggs for no problems
Cons: No cons yet I bought 3 of these in case one was broken.
Overall Review: First cable worked like a charm. It has been a few days since I installed my new ssd and will update review if cable gives out. I bought 3 of this color and 3 each of the blue and green. I wanted to have extra on hand in case any of them were faulty.
Works like new
Pros: This was my first time purchasing a refurbished laptop and I was surprised at the quality of it. This little machine boots up fast due to the SSD and works perfect for my needs. I do light gaming with a game that's almost two decades old so it's more than enough to run it.
Cons: No cons that I can find so far. As I said before this laptop just needs to do one job and that's it.
Overall Review: I'm very satisfied with my purchase and this has opened me up to buying more refurbished laptops in the future. I actually got another laptop but on another site.
Great replacement
Pros: Works out of the box Fast read/write speeds Large cache Enough storage space I'll ever need for music & pictures Western Digital Price (On sale at time of purchase) Quiet
Cons: None so far.
Overall Review: I am a big Western Digital fan here only because, I have never had a single hard drive die on me. The hard drive this one replace was a 500GB S**g***, so I am happy with the increased storage space, however, I lost a lot of information. Funny thing is I didn't know it was dying but it did make noises for a long time before it kicked the can, however, I guess I wasn't too knowledgeable about the sounds of a dying hard drive. Any who I'll probably buy and external WD hdd for a back.
Thermal paste purchase
Everything is satisfactory
