I bought this for a computer built about 3-4 years ago that used a 120GB SATA SSD boot drive that was almost full due to OS bloat . My MSI motherboard didn't really tell me if it saw the drive or not since it uses a PCI interface and not traditional sata. (Perhaps this is because the PCI interface is relatively new and will likely be easier to identify in the future). However, on a clean install of Windows, the drive was recognized and my boot times are amazing! A few seconds after hitting the power button, I'm good to go. While this is partly due to a fresh operating system installation, it's also due to the hard drive's amazing read speeds.
