Crucial BX500 240GB 3D NAND SATA 2.5 Inch Internal SSD - Up to 540MB/s - CT240BX500SSD1

Product Information

As soon as I set up and installed the SSD as my boot drive (I previously had a HDD) I noticed an immediate improvement in loading times and general performance. Been using the Crucial BX and MX SSD range of drives to upgrade family's old laptops and PC's, the difference in performance gives a new lease life to the machines.

The speed of this isn't groundbreaking and yes, NWMe drivers are quicker, but this is a great boot drive and really good value for money.

If you just want to install as an extra drive then just follow simple instructions to initialise the drive. It transfers the data over quickly using a separately purchased SATA cable, and is by far the cheapest way to speed up your laptop.

Firstly I was unsure of the size of drive I wanted or could afford to get, my internal drive is 1tb but I have only ever used around 220gig of that capacity, secondly and probably the main reservation being I wanted it to be a simple clean process cloning my drive so I could just continue with exactly the same setup but with greater drive speeds. What I like is that this is not a no going back upgrade as the original drive is not compromised or wiped so if for any reason it fails then the original drive will still be fully intact, I have disconnected the original drive but left it in the machine as a security backup but of course you could wipe it and use it for storage.Most purchases from business sellers are protected by the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 which give you the right to cancel the purchase within 14 days after the day you receive the item.

A bit too soon to comment on longevity, but I am am trusting Crucial to have made a good product as I have used many of their memory cars in the past and always found them reliable.
