Well done. Works really well - the product is a good one. It does what it says it should do.

Bottom Line: The Crucial BX500 is a solid, budget-friendly 2.5-inch SATA SSD with a value bent, but at our test capacity, the company's own MX500 is a better choice for most.

Bottom Line: While ADATA's XPG SX6000 Pro is a fine enough PCI Express M.2 SSD taken in isolation, its XPG older brother casts a speed and value shadow.

The M550 isn’t the cheapest SSD, but is still good value and has excellent file transfer performance. It wins a Best Buy award. For all our current best Buy SSDs see our regularly updated Best SSD article.

This is my 8th SSD drive over the past year. My other drives are Kingston, OCZ, Crucial and Verbatim. I have not had one issue with any of them. Same now goes for this Silicon Power drive. This drive is replacing an old 80GB Maxtor SATA-1 data drive in...

I bought this as part of a Christmas present. In was in such a cheap and flimsy box, I was too embarassed to give it to the little boy concerned.

For those who haven't made the step up to a SATA 6Gbps board, PQI has a very capable line of SSDs with the S535 series featuring the proven SandForce SF-1222 controller. However, these are a generation behind now and there's plenty of competition in...

Although this SSD performs well, it is difficult to recommend owing to its high price and small capacity.

Ironically, considering its design makes it the ideal Mac partner, we wouldn't recommend buying this device if you're an Apple user because it will be limited to USB 2.0 speeds. There are some laptops beginning to ship with USB 3.0, however, and USB...

Its real nice. If you can justify getting an SSD just do it. even a small one for a boot. You really got to experience it for youself. Everything fires up almost instantly. Mushkin has such nice stuff. you can kinda tell cause they only make a few...

My overall rating is based off of the price of the standard price. At the price of 180 dollars as I got it (on sale) I would give it 4 stars, only lacking 1 due to having no TRIM support. If you can get it on sale buy it, otherwise check out other...

To see how the SiliconEdge performs, we installed it into an easily upgradeable, late 2008 Unibody MacBook with a 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo processor and 2GB of RAM. We ran a series of tests on the MacBook’s internal 5400-rpm, 2.5-inch Toshiba hard drive to...

I think I jumped on the SSD bandwagon a little early. The read/write numbers are what I want (obviously), but this drive def does NOT perform as advertised. I keep my computer clean, drives maintained, registry in check, etc. It's extremely obnoxious...

I found the Transcend model to be too slow for Readyboost on 3 machines both Vista and WIndows 7 so returned.

I bought this drive almost immediately when it came out. It started out well, but then went sour. I experienced data loss, stuttering, pauses and lockups. I RMA'ed the drive to Newegg and got a brand new drive. I flashed the firmware to 1571 and...

Money no object, if I were to recommend one upgrade in any system, it will most definitely be a SSD. Offering nearly double the performance over the fastest hard drive I have ever tested speaks volumes about the performance that a SSD delivers. Even a...

Allyn came back from CES with a pre-release Vertex 2 Pro from OCZ. This new drive comes equipped with a previously unknown Sandforce controller, which gave us some shocking results, especially in the areas of IOPS scaling and fragmentation-over-time....

I returned this item because it does not work with OSX which it should. Under Windows or Linux a very nice product !!

Seller might clearly state that additional purchase will be required (AIC) to use since its in the same search results I assumed it would so I am partially to blame as well for assuming....

Have you actually done the math since you were the one that provided the feedback. 128GB * 1000 = 128000. 128000 / 1024 mibibytes per gibibyte still comes out to 125 GB NOT 119. I also have a difficult time believeing that on 125 GB that the FAT or...

It does exactly what it says. If you need an easy way to store some data, this is perfect.
