Review: Great SSD at a great price, significantly improves computer performance. - I bought an Asus Q400a a little less than a year ago. The specs are 8GB RAM, 2.2GHz i7 processor so no bottleneck there but it came with a 5400rpm HDD. The computer took around a minute and a half to boot up plus longer to load windows completely. Browsing the web, launching more than one application and just use in general felt very sluggish. I have a SSD in my custom built desktop and love it so I thought I'd try this out in my laptop. Wow what a difference! Everything runs great and programs open instantly. By modifying some of window's startup settings I now have it booting in under 30 seconds. My laptop is now not a pain to use, and after 4 months I have had no problems with it. I you have an older laptop or desktop I would recommend upgrading to an SSD over any other upgrades. It will give you the biggest overall performance upgrade and does not cost that much to do. If doing this in a laptop I would recommend a 250GB or 500GB to have enough room for everything. If doing this to a desktop you can buy a smaller SSD, install just the operating system and some frequently used programs to it, and keep using the original HDD to store everything else (such as pictures or music). All you'll need is an extra SATA cable ($2 on monoprice: http://www.monoprice.com/Product?c_id=102&cp_id=10226&cs_id=1022602&p_id=5115&seq=1&format=2) Installation is a breeze. Before installing make sure to copy the data you want to a flash drive and find your windows install disc or buy a hard drive enclosure to transfer data to your new SSD using the software that comes with it. 1) Google service manual for (your laptop/desktop model) 2) Follow instructions to take off bottom of laptop or side panel of desktop 3) If installing in a laptop you'll probably need to remove the original HDD and swap it out for the SSD. If installing in a desktop, find an empty hard drive slot for your SSD and install it while leaving the original HDD in there. You will be able to use both for storage. 4) Either copy over all data from your old HDD by cloning the drive (you'll need a hard drive enclosure for this) OR reinstall windows (or other OS) using the install disc that came with your computer. (Make sure you select the new SSD as the install location) 5) That's it. Boot up your computer and enjoy!
Review: Great SSD - check out the system specs for the computer we built using this drive! Wow! - Hi guys I normally don't write too many reviews for lack of time, but felt compelled to share about this hardware and the system my son and I built after seeing the result! This review was written on 02/21/2015... We bought the MSI Z 97 gaming motherboard to be the foundation of a new gaming platform for my son using an older Antec full tower case to house it all in. Anyone thinking of building a new system should consider the components listed below. After building the computer and turning on the hardware overclocking feature on the motherboard (OC Genie), loading all the drivers and updating using the MSI updating software, the system is stable, hasn't crashed once, and runs games at blazing speeds. My son says he is getting 100 fps plus from every game he has, while running them at max graphics settings, including a popular new title called "Evolve", where the graphics are just stunning. Some games he is getting over 200fps, wow. I went in and looked at Windows performance module, the 3.5 GHZ CPU we put on the motherboard is overclocked by the hardware to 3.95 GHZ with no stability issues. I have watched him play some of his newer games and the system just makes them look gorgeous, amazing processing power! Be sure to hook up dedicated 4-pin power from your power supply to the corresponding audio power jumper on the motherboard, lights up red when you start the system and looks really cool, supplies dedicated power to the rear audio jacks. One thing to note in the motherboard installation book it does not tell you which position to set the DIP switch to enable powered audio rear jacks until four pages later than where it tells/shows you which jumper to plug in dedicated power, that info should be on same page in manual. Remember the graphics card listed below recommends a minimum 750 watt power supply due to the high wattage of the card. I replace my older 500W power supply just to be safe. This is a huge graphics card so make sure you have a full size case to start your build. Another thing make sure you don't have any power cables in the way of the graphics card fans at startup, double check, the fans most be running. At initial startup we had a power cable that that got in the way of one of the fans, but we caught it right away and re-routed it so the fan would spin. Please note this motherboard does not have any IDE bus ports to support legacy drives, so all your drives must be SATA bus (the modern current bus) to run. On the motherboard there is a handy jumper connector for the front case wires that comes with the motherboard, you just plug the wires into the connector where labeled and then plug the connector into the jumper set on the motherboard, thank you MSI. Also this was the first computer I have built with a Solid State Drive and the data read/write speeds are indeed impressive. We splurged and bought the keyboard listed below, what can I say I never seen such a cool looking and well built keyboard, the colors and feel of the keys is impressive. This was a great project for me and my son, and the result was a screaming fast new computer which he loves, and was allot cheaper than buying complete from a regular vendor! Total cost was around 1400.00 if I remember right. stcroix_man2002@yahoo.com - MSI ATX DDR3 2600 LGA 1150 Motherboards Z97 - Samsung 840 EVO 500GB 2.5-Inch SATA III Internal SSD (MZ-7TE500BW) - Intel Core i5-4690K Processor 3.5 GHz LGA 1150 BX80646I54690K (Core multiplier is UNLOCKED for overclocking!) includes nice fan that seems to be cooling the CPU fine looking at the operating temps in the BIOS - MSI Computer Corp.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great drive. I just wish I had paid more attention.
*by J***1 on April 23, 2014*

*THIRD UPDATE*(Edited October 11, 2015) The drive is still chugging along like a champ. The computer I put it in has been junk, but the drive has been fantastic. Still 5 stars. -------------------------------------------- *SECOND UPDATE*(Edited August 3, 2014) Still running like a champ. I can see no reasons at all to not buy this drive. I have no choice to give it 5 stars. -------------------------------------------- *UPDATE*(edited June 16, 2014) Wow. This thing is just unbelievably fast, even after having it for a month and a half. I run several games off of it, and the load times are incredible. An example would be Fallout: New Vegas. With a standard drive, the loading wheel would normally spin for 10-15 seconds. With my OCZ drive, it cut it down to about 5 seconds. With this drive, it is down to maybe 2 seconds. I just can't say enough good things about this drive. If I had the chance to go back in time and either do it again or save my money, I would buy it again in an instant. -------------------------------------------- The drive is excellent. I had an OCZ Agility 3 drive that was only 120gb. It was simply too small. I upgraded to this 500gb drive. It is blazing fast. I had bought RAM for my old laptop that ended up not being compatible for some reason, and I was too late to return that to the store. Since it was sitting around, I decided trying to stick one of the 4gb sticks into the open slot on this laptop. It worked like a charm, and boosted my ram to 12gb. Realistically, I won't use the 12gb any time soon. However, this drive has a "RAPID" feature that allows you to steal some of the ram from your system(2gb in my case) and use it as a cache space for the SSD. Even though this drive is FAST to begin with(I was actually getting 550MB/s read and write), the RAPID feature speeds it up even more. In ATTO Disk Benchmark, I am actually showing read and write speeds of ~1050MB/s. I realize that is impossible, as the maximum theoretical rate for SATA III is 6.0Gb/s, or 750MB/s. I can't say anything about the included migration software, as I used Ghost to clone everything. The only thing I was disappointed to find was that it didn't have the spacer or migration cable, but that is my own fault for ordering the "Single Unit" product and not the "Notebook Kit". I feel it would be unfair to give the product a lower rating due to my mistake. I would just like to warn any prospective buyers that they need to look at the Notebook Kit or Desktop Kit if they are expecting this to come with anything else. The drive is only 7mm thick. If your laptop just lets the drive slide into a slot, this one will likely have some wiggle room. The spacer that comes in the Laptop Kit will take care of that. Since I have only had the drive in here for 1 day, I plan on updating my review about 3 months from now, unless the drive fails before then.
