Rated 5 out of 5 by from This drive is amazing in my old desktop PC. I use my old desktop PC to surf the web, check into Facebook and LinkedIn, etc. This Windows 10 PC was shipped with Windows Vista. I've upgraded it with Windows 7 and then Windows 10. I added some RAM but it didn't really improve its slow boot and load times. This new SSD has transformed this PC into a very capable machine. It's just incredible the difference it has made. The Crucial step by step instructions and video made the installation very easy!!! I am very happy with the results.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love It. Boot time on my laptop went from 5 1/2 minutes with Windows 10 to 1 1/2 min. Everything is MUCH faster. I did have had a problem using the Acronis for Crucial drive software that they provide. Support immediately sent me a fix, which allowed the software to run HOWEVER I wasn't able to use it because of the my disk sector size wasn't compatible for the software to clone from. I again called support and they immediately guided me through an alternate way. This is one time that a call to a Customer Support group really was a pleasure and more importantly - FAST.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I Highly Recommend Crucial SSD Crucial SSDs are reliable. It's an easy way to speed up your computer rather than buy a new one.

I try to buy a name brand & Crucial SSD has never let me down.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I am buying the prodect over and over again I bought one a few years back and I do not know if they are the fastest etc. For a I7 desktops and laptops I just add them to the system and it all works. Windows 10 uses storage spaces so you can so easily add a second SSD to the poll or a third. I use one SSD for the OS and then others for the data. I use others to make quick images of all my Boot C:\ Drive and back up data to my NAS. If you think yo umay be hacked one day, backup and make an image of your drives. Just unplug the encrypted ones and plug in your backups. Done. 20 min.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The simplest hardware install ever Bought this product about a week ago It took about 45 minutes for the software to clone my old hard disk. After that, I replaced the old hard disk with this new one in less that 5 minutes. Everything worked flawlessly...almost as if I made no changes to my Windows-10 laptop at all. Really great experience.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I would buy this product again, maybe. Once I finally got the product I watched videos on YouTube how to replace my hard drive. Easy to replace and it worked right out of the box. I am very unhappy about you losing my first order, When I called to check on the first order you couldn't find it. I ordered a second time and you sent me 2 SSD's. Shipping of the first order took 2 months! You did, however, refund me the second order after I sent the second SSD back. Thank you for that. Slow shipping and losing my order rates you a 3.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Crucial MX500 250Gig SSD a great product Thank You Crucial The crucial 250Gig SSD is a great product. To be honest it is my first and only encounter with SSD for my PC. I am very glad that I chose Crucial. The reason for my recent purchases of additional Crucial 250Gig SSDs' is mainly for my hobby. instead of using the traditional HDD hardisk drive, you know the spinning disks type which is 4 to 7 times slower than a SSD motionless drive, I will now be using SSD drives for my hobby. What is my hobby? i enjoy installing linux on my older and lesser used PCs'. I also enjoy building my own PCs' from scratch so I end of having the PC that I really want. Personal note to Crucial: 250Gig is plenty for any operating system I've installed so please don't try to improve this product by increasing the storage capacity. ie my windows 11 OS usies about 53Gig and I store any accumulated long term data else where like a DVD. Thank You crucial for a great product.
