Microsoft Surface Laptop Slow Ssd

I have used several types of laptop computers, but Microsoft Surface Pro 7 is more than I expected :)

Microsoft surface pen is a great choice

Don't make my mistake by thinking you can use any old gutted laptop SSD you have sitting around. The old drive I was using wasn't slow, but it was too slow for 4K. Got the kangaroo icon (dropping frames) and found later that it was splitting the recording into a hundred little clips and losing a large percentage of the shot. Good thing I had another camera with one of these recording perfectly. Immediately after that I bought a second one.

Cloned a slow laptop hdd to a new ssd drive via usb port with mini tool partition wizard. It took so little time. I left it alone for 40 min and it was done when I got back. Perfect tool for this job!

Friend had older laptop that was so slow. She has limited budget and is saving for a new PC, yet current unit took over 3 minutes to boot. And Chrome took about 25 seconds to fire up. This SSD came to the rescue! Cleaned up some Windows 10 stuff, cloned old 5,400 rpm 500 GB disk to the PNY CS900 500GB SSD. Wow, she's so happy! For under $40 it's never been this fast, even when new. Boot time about 30 seconds and Chrome loads in ~ 3 seconds. Fantastic value.

I bought one of these to clone a slow laptop drive to a new SSD and it worked flawlessly. This is a well made cable and seems to work in anything I've got with USB 3. If you need to copy or move data around to 2.5" SATA drives this does the trick. The price is right too.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was disappointed with how slow my HP laptop was, but after I installed this SSD, it became much faster than when it was brand new.

Pairs with the Microsoft Surface Go I got as a gift for my spouse. She's quite happy with it.

This is working great on my SAMSUNG FLIP 2 touch out to Microsoft Surface. Plug and play.

In my opinion, that's the best option for tablet PC available right now! * Silent - where is the cooler?! * Light and portable - even the complete kit (Surface, cover and the pen) is still incredibly easy to manage and carry in a small backpack or purse. * great quality material - it feels solid. Even the type cover seems solid (I am still getting used to the cover, but I am trying!). * relatively powerful - you get what you pay: it is fast to start Windows, run smooth medium-end software. High-end tools like Visual Studio and database development studios could perform better in a better spec notebook, but it's very easy to succumb to its power-portability rate. * comfortable keyboard - I am still trying to understand how such a small and thin keyboard is so comfortable... * finally a USB-C! - I have a Surface Pro 6 and this Pro 7 is a minor improvement. The battery and processor are slightly better compared to Pro 6, but the only item that I am really happy to upgrade is the new port! Microsoft please pay me to omit this! * The SSD is still slow since the early Surface Pros comparing with the competition... Why Microsoft?! * The battery only survives +5 hours if you decrease the processor power to microwave level. A medium to high workload finishes the battery in less than 2 hours. Tips: * I bought the pen, but I rarely use it. Despite that, the pen is very comfortable, runs smoothly in the glass and is very useful to control presentations. Of course, it's great for drawing. * I suggest the Surface Dock to optimizes your work. Just plug to add 4 USB ports, ethernet gigabit port, display port (even though it is a mini DP...) and audio output to your Surface. All that with embedded power supply, maintaining your power adapter on your backpack. * Buy a Microsoft Display Adapter! It is simply a MUST because wireless video transmission liberates you from wires!
