5 out of 5 eggs Fast, easy, and very reliable 03/11/2016

This review is from: Crucial M500 CT240M500SSD1 2.5" 240GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)

Pros:

The best way to speed up your computer, if you don't already have one, is to put in an SSD. I've been using this for some time now and it has been everything I hoped for. My computer is older, using SATA 3, and this SSD gave it new life. I plan to install it in a new computer build and I expect the same awesome performance and reliability that I've grown to expect with the Crucial brand.

Cons:

Newegg is forcing me to list cons. The only con is the same one with all SSD's and that is size/cost. Yeah, it's a little more expensive, but it is worth every penny. It would be nice to have a larger one for the same money, but that will just take some time.

Overall Review:

At this moment in time, I would not recommend any brand over Crucial. The drive just plugs in and works. The computer runs it fast and quiet. The earlier generations of SSD tended to have reliability issues, but I don't see that here. I've been running it for some time now with zero problems. I've been running it along side an HDD in the computer, and as long as it is configured right, the HDD is used only a handful of times each day.
