Kingston 480GB A400 SATA 3 2.5 Internal SSD SA400S37/480G - HDD Replacement for Increase Performance

I use it for system disk

Fought with this drive for 8 hours to get it to Clone my windows 10 and even tried to do a fresh install of windows 10. It will not accept any installation of windows 10.

Definitely will be buying another one

Computer works much faster booting up from this SSD instead of the old Hard Drive. I use this for operating system and programs. The rest of the stuff stays on the old HDD. Good value.

My laptop works like a new one. Thank you!

The cheapest and most effective way to improve computer performance.

I have 3 running in RAID 5 and my system seems to have zero lag time!

I used HD Tune free version for my speed test. Note: SATA 2 speed. Gaming is not my main purpose for my pc. The speed shown is from my MSI board. The Dell is also SATA2. I use a mechanical drive for my main storage. Both machines boot within a few seconds. Despite some antiquated hardware on my machine its fast enough to meet my needs. Email, web browsing, video streaming & editing, and some games. With my graphics card I dont have unrealistic expectations on what games I can play. I thought about a larger drive, but since Im installing monster sized games 240gb seems adequate. I still have over 130gb of free space after installing my main programs and storing some media files. Installing can be a pain if you dont have the right bracket to from 2.5 to 3.5. I bought some cheap brackets from overseas, & they only sorta work.

Speed and reliable

So this has been absolutely wonderful. I purchase it because I work from home and it was on the recommended list. It has not disappointed because all my work is done on the drive. The price exceeded my expectations compared to the other recommended drives.
