Wd Green 240Gb 2.5 7Mm Solid State Drive

This is my second WD 1 TB drive, and I use them to both store and backup photos from my MacBook Pro (with solid-state storage). Even with lots of RAW files, the transfer rate seems fast. It is small, and easily stored when not in use. There is nothing about this drive that I would change.

Solid state drive worth it.

excellent little solid state drive - and powerful

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

I have this connected by USB 3.0 to a Asustor AS5304T 4-bay NAS. Setting it up was easy after the supplied USB cable broke as soon as I went to use it. First test was installing 1tb WD hhd's, works fine. Then I decided to see if I could figure out a way to install 2.5 ssd's. I found on Thingiverse a 3D model of a drive adapter that I could print and use. Made that and put a Crucial MX500 1tb ssd on it. This was able to be inserted into a bay and recognized. That works. BTW - These drive so far were NTFS. Here is where it I had an issue. I tried installing a 2.5 Seagate 5tb hhd formatted with a NTFS volume. This did not work. The Sabrent station changed it to show up as a GPT protective partition. I next installed A WD 4tb hhd and got the same results. After googling this problem I found that someone had contacted Sabrent about it and the suggested to do a low level format. I know that doing this would tie up a drive for ages before completion. Here is what I did: 1. In Windows I used Diskpart and performed a Clean. Then used Disk Management, initialized the disk and did a simple exFat volume. This worked on the drives I wanted to use that were over 1tb. Why? I did more reading and from what I understand is that it has to do with the disk sector sizes. This I don't need to understand for I only care about getting to a usable enclosure with larger drives. I have even read elsewhere that some people got so frustrated that they put it aside to collect dust. I hope this helps them. Overall, I am please with this product except for that junky USB cable.

good solid drive - in my book WD is the best

WD Red Pro is always a solid, dependable drive.

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.

Cost effective cable for migrating my old hard drive to new solid state drive.
