Review on πŸ’» Toshiba HDTS212XZSTA Q-Series 128GB Internal SATA III SSD for Laptops: Superior Performance at your Fingertips by Tres Carmon

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Easy installation, very fast

I chose this SSD because of its low power consumption. I wanted my computer to be open so I could see while riding in a car or bus. Boot time on my 64-bit PC is about 15 seconds. And there are ways to make it even faster. You need to format the hard drive. Windows 7 already has a device driver for this device, or it gets it automatically from somewhere. I had to make the disk "active" and then format it. Here's a tip: you can't just plug this thing into your computer to format it. You need to format it with an external hard drive enclosure with a USB cable. They cost about $9. Once formatted, you can remove it from the external hard drive case and insert it into your laptop or desktop hard drive storage. You then use your DVD CD to install the operating system onto it. I highly recommend this SSD. It's very fast and the latest version.

Pros
  • Quiet operation with no moving parts
Cons
  • Capacity
