Enterprise Solid State Drives Ssds

I have used several of the MX500s, especially the 250GB and 500GB versions, to upgrade computers from hard disk drives to solid state drives. While these Crucial drives do not have the same specs as their top competitor, the price point makes these a excellent choice, especially on older laptops and desktops that just need a year of two more of regular use. On all of the computers I have replaced a HDD with one of these SDDs, these MX500s have breathed new life into the computer, and these computers may last even longer now. I have also installed SSDs from their top competitor, and will continue to purchase both brands of SSDs, depending on the application. At least for now, when I need to purchase an SSD, I only look at these two brands as both have given me solid performance, and I will be buying more Crucial drives in the future.

(Please note I did NOT say a solid state NAS drive.) Seagate NAS drives provide great storage capacity, in a standard-sized package, and they're designed for NAS. Highly recommend.

This Sabrent converter is great in allowing use of the new Solid State drives in older desktop machines. Plug-and-play. Works great

The Sandisk Ultra SSD's have been my first choice for solid state drives. Great performance and at a competitive price. I've done a lot of upgrades for people and have had zero issues with these.

As a computer repairman with decades of experience I only use Crucial Solid State Drives in my own computers and recommend them to all my clients. I have never had one fail though I have seen Samsung and Intel drives die.

Compared to old Hard drive which was not solid state, the new drive respond time is noticeable. Did not want to change drives because thought I was wasting money $243. but after changing drives glad I did. Ron I

I am IT guy who replaces mechanical hard drives with solid state hard drives approximately once per week. This is a great brand, with a good product at a great price. If you want to compare SSDs, look for the highest number of Input / Output Per Second (IOPs) to best judge performance. Read/write speed is not a good indicator. I would rate the drive as a B+, which is more great for most uses.

Every computer should come with these solid state drives these days. I already had a 500 GB installed, now I added this drive just for my photography files. Dramatic increase in speed accessing files. Worth every penny as the price of these drives continues to drop. Every computer I use will have one of these from now on, except my laptop (for now).

I've always found Western Digital products to be trustworthy, from old school mechanical drives to solid state, and this SSD is no exception. Great capacity and good performance at this price point, all from a known, quality manufacturer.

It's gold for a reason. It's the gold standard in enterprise drives. Excellent ordering, shipping, and delivery. Drives are fast, and reliable. Couldn't ask for more.
