About a week ago, Revain temporarily shelved this model due to a "construction error" and offered customers a nearly identical product with the same serial number but without the "Z". At the end. I bought this model and the chat agent assured me there would be no problems. Had not. Acronis software, which can be downloaded from both this company and Crucial (support link), unpacked and worked fine. Replacing the tiny screws on the computer's SSD bracket proved to be quite a challenge, but was soon accomplished with a magnetized Phillips screwdriver. Start and performance are excellent. After installation, I formatted the external hard drive for possible reuse. The Startech SATA to USB cable connects directly to the SSD without an enclosure, or you can purchase an inexpensive enclosure that comes with its own cable to a USB port on your computer, preferably a USB 3.0 port. I prefer the Startech method.
