Crucial MX500 500GB 3D NAND SATA 2.5 Inch Internal SSD, up to 560MB/s - CT500MX500SSD1(Z)

Really good SDD, good overall until today.

I bought 2 of these for my 2 sons laptops. They love them. Boot up time went from about 1m 30s to under 15 sec. I previously had purchased/installed the MX300 (1 TB) on my laptop. In the 25 yrs Ive used laptops/desktops for work and play, installing an SSD made THE BIGGEST SPEED IMPROVEMENT in booting and processing time that Ive ever experienced. The Crucial site has all the information you need to install it yourself. Just a word of caution: If your computer is under warranty, ask the manufacturer if installing this SSD hard drive will void the warranty.

Work as expected. Very good performance. Cant complaint. Great for daily use.

This was packaged in the Amazon simple packaging and was easy to unpack. Installation was a breeze thanks to the instructions and the software (acronis true image) the instructions also took you through the process of removing the existing hard drive from the laptop. This also came with a spacer which I needed. Great value for money and saved me from buying a new computer as the laptop now boots in under 30 seconds.

Used to upgrade a 3 core AND system from Windows 7 to 10 (I know it is overdue!). It now boots very quickly and is a joy to use. Very happy and much cheaper than getting a new pc. I cant say the system is much quieter because the fan drowned out the old disk noise anyway!

See headline. Used Ubuntu (dd) to clone old (primary) Windows 7 drive to this new Crucial unit. With new SSD, it has been a transformation. No noise. Boots up in 2 seconds. Windows All programs like the blazes. Ran some disk speed tools (e.g. Hd Tach, CrystalDiskMark) and its now over 8.5 times faster on sequentials and over 100 times on randoms. Incredible value.

I saw this SSD on sale, so I bought it on a whim. I have a very old laptop that is pure drudgery to use because of its age and crappy HDD. So I figured it was worth the effort to switch to a SSD instead.

Im a photographer who likes lightning fast read/write access to my raw photographs. Im constantly receiving crazy fast speeds. Ive ran benchmark tests and these drives (this is my second Crucial SSD) have kept going strong with heavy use, over the past two years. Thank you Amazon for stocking these... they are silent, fast, light, and most importantly, very reliable so far. I would recommend these to anyone wishing to speed up their overall heavy computing experience.

Purchased this on PrimeDay for a steal. I installed it into my PS4 Pro and wow. Its extremely responsive and fast. Menus, games, etc all load almost immediately. I cant wait for the price to come down again (maybe Black Friday) to grab another for my Xbox One X.
