Review on Crucial MX500 1TB M.2 Internal SSD with 3D NAND, up to 560MB/s Speed - CT1000MX500SSD4 by Nathan Hutchinson

Revainrating 1 out of 5

FAST BOOT Suitable for internal SSDs

Easy to install in my 2 week old Acer Nitro 5. I have a 500GB M.2, it fits snugly in the slot. A FEW DAYS BEFORE INSTALLATION AND CALLING CRUCIAL TECHNICAL SUPPORT (EXCELLENT SUPPORT) Note; Crucial Technical Support is closed on weekends. I called on Thursday and did the update on Saturday. First, I turned off my laptop. Removed all screws from the bottom cover and removed the RAM and hard drive cover. Removed 4 screws from the hard drive, carefully loosened and removed the hard drive. and used a credit card to slide along the edge to help open it. Slide it onto the SSD and insert a screw to fix it. CONNECT BATTERY. Replace the bottom cover and reinstall all the screws. Connect the hard drive and install the screws. Take the laptop and go to the website, download Acrions and follow the instructions. It worked without any problems and I'm not that good when it comes to computers. This thing went from minutes to 10 seconds.

Pros
  • Computers and accessories
Cons
  • Big and bulky
