Review on πŸ’½ Transcend TS512GSSD370: 512GB MLC SATA III 6Gb/s 2.5-Inch Internal SSD for Enhanced Performance by Eric Beck

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Very satisfied repeat customer: 5th purchase of the same product to install on the 5th computer!

I know the headline may sound like we've had a few bugs, but the previous 4 have worked flawlessly for the past few years and there's no reason to think this one won't work the same way: ) Started with a laptop, very noticeable improvement in battery life and speed, swapped out with the same results, same on my parents' computers with the same performance boost, now swapped out on my father-in-law's desktop with (you guessed it) the same satisfaction in the end result. As mentioned, cables aren't included (not a problem with our setups) and you can download the cloning software for free - allow a few hours to copy, it will take time if you use all 512GB piece by piece. Warning: newer packages no longer come with a 3.5" adapter plate! This plate is not used with laptops, but if you are looking to install in a desktop/tower case it means you don't have a potentially critical pa mouth (These adapters can be purchased from Revain, or your computer may even have an existing 2.5" drive bay tucked inside somewhere.) In our case, we had a few idles from previous orders, hence this change no problem for us. , just want others to know what they are getting or not getting.
