💾 SanDisk 120GB SSD Plus Solid State Drive - Model SDSSDA-120G-G26 Review

I'll say right away when I first received the device, it felt like the SSD case was made out of cheap plastic. It felt light and fragile, but that's to be expected since it's not made out of the same heavy metal components as a hard drive. However, when I connected it to my computer, I definitely noticed a difference. I tested Windows 7 Home Premium on it and it booted much faster than I've ever seen on a standard hard drive. It was on the boot screen for about 3-5 seconds (usually takes…

I upgraded an old computer to use it for older games and software because the 'new' is Microsoft Fisher Price. I switched from an old 80GB hard drive to an SSD. I upgraded my laptop to an SSD so I thought this might help. Buddy did it. On older machines, the motherboard uses an IDE interface, while newer SSDs use SATA. To make this work, I bought an IDE to SATA converter and hoped the IDE speed wouldn't matter. It turns out there is an effect, but the upside is in read/write speeds. A full…

I bought this to replace the hard drive in a Dell 5559 laptop. I arrived quickly. I downloaded the Sandisk toolbox and manual. The manual recommends cloning software like EZ Gig.

Then I saw that the dashboard had a link to WD's cloning program. I downloaded it but it didn't clone the drive either. This…

Throw away your laptop's hard drive, this one works better with Windows 10. Just make sure you turn off services like Superfetch or your computers will just do something wasted. Having a hard drive for Windows 10 means 100% of the hard drive is used because there is a lot of crap installed on the Windows computer. I have NEVER had any problems with SDD, but these things shouldn't store any important information because if there is a problem, the information cannot be recovered. Because once…

These SSDs work well and won't break the bank. I've used them on 7 computers at work that were about 7 years old to last longer rather than buying new ones. They speed up your PC so much that in most cases it's like buying a new one. They are not as fast as Samsung SSDs, but they are also significantly cheaper. If you've never installed them on a desktop PC, rotary drives are typically 3.5" and these are 2.5", so you may need an adapter if your case doesn't have a 2.5" slot. I was able to just…
