Visiontek Usb 3.0 Solid State Drive

Solid state drive worth it.

This is my third LaCie rugged drive and is still a solid performer. Also like the ability to plug it into USB 3.0 and USB-C ports as I don't need a dongle.

excellent little solid state drive - and powerful

Hard drive is plug and play. Nice that it has usb 3.0

Great drive. I use it to back up video files. Great value for the 4TB and USB 3.0.

I used this drive to clone a laptop hard drive to a solid state drive. Worked well.

The USB 3.0 to 2.5" SATA III Hard Drive adapter cable w/UASP - SATA to USB 3.0 Converter for SSD / HDD works with my Windows laptop but it seemed like I needed a USB 3.0 port to provide enough power because when plugged into a USB 2.0 it would not light up. No special software or drivers required - the hard drive showed up as another drive when I looked at My Computer. I received this product in exchange for an unbiased review.

I recently got a SanDisk 1TB SSD (Solid State Drive) and used a drive cloning device to clone my old 1TB Hard Disk Drive (HDD) to the new SSD. It works wonders in my 15 year old computer! It really speeds up drive-related activities, perhaps as much as 3 or 4 times faster. I think my old HP laptop computer is either a SATA or SATA II type, so I suspect those with a SATA III system would see even better speed results when going from a HDD to a SSD. Gotta love it!

This is an extremely reliable and easy to use Solid State Drive. Once initialized it's easy to clone form a Hard Disk Drive to this unit. Take out the old drive, insert this drive, and put your seat belt on.

I had been wanting to get one of these for far too long. Don't wait as long as I did ! ! ! When I was first looking into one of these I was only actually considering a 1TB version. And, since this was my first one, I could still have gotten one of those for a little less cost, and probably much like yourself,, I'm on an iron-fisted budget,, which I seldom make an exception for.. ...but this time I did. I just installed a brand new USB 3.0 4-port PCI-Express based expansion card into a 2012 desktop running Windows 7 64-bit with a Duo-Core Intel based chip and 8 GB of RAM. When I simply inserted the USB 3.0 cable into the USB port (prev mentioned) nearly INSTANTANEOUSLY the taskbar (lower right area near system clock) popped-up the familiar Windows has discovered a new device, installing drivers etc...device is now installed...ready to use.. PRESTO JUST THAT FAST.....all by itself And this EXTERNAL drive, using the SuperSpeed capabilities of USB 3.0, at least on my machine using a dedicated card exclusively handling those 4 USB ports, appears to perform at least as fast as my oriiginal installed INTERNAL hard drive. I cant say for a fact if it's actually faster or not, honestly, but I can say that whether working off one drive or the other what I dont see is any performance LAG. Doesn't exist. With a 1 GB EVGA $49 basic level add-on video card I can run saved movies/videos direct off this drive at any resolution on my LG 55 Widescreen HDTV monitor with FLAWLESS 1920 X 1080 resolution with no stutter, no stall, no hang, NO PROBLEM.. YOU'VE GOT TO GET ONE OF THESE - - - YOU'LL BE GLAD YOU DID !!!
