Pros: Fast! Quiet! Install was a breeze in new quad core AMD laptop. Replaced the 500gb 5400 rpm drive with this. Lost some storage but I keep all my data on network storage. I was surprised when I opened the box to find a external enclosure with mini-USB cable AND Acronis True Image HD! The swap out couldn't be easier. Remove your laptop drive and place it in external enclosure, put SSD drive in laptop, plug external drive that contains your original drive, boot with the supplied CD (Acronis), follow easy directions and presto! Done in 20 minutes!

Cons: Wish it were larger but hey, that's where the technology is currently.

Overall Review: My Windows Experience went from 5.7 to 7.0. Now I'm going to hate working on laptops with spinning disks!
