  • When a Durabook (or other laptop) has too small of a main drive...
Capacity: 1TB Style: Vulcan Z
I bought three Durabooks for three of our grandchildren. The Durabooks are older r8300 series; Two with Windows 7 and one with Windows 10. Each of the Durabooks (msinfo32 said 2013 - 2015 made) came with six Gig of memory and roughly 245 GB SSDs. Speed tests showed they were somewhat burdened, but modestly functional. (I wouldn't have tried Roblox on them, though.) I installed the new TEAMGROUP Elite 16 GB memories and TEAMGROUP T-Force Vulcan Z 1 TB SSDs in to each, using the newest unit's as the standard OS that I cloned. (I used an Amazon-purchased WAVLINK USB3.0 to SATA 3 adapter <powered version> for the clonings via Macrium Reflect.) The upgrades were simple enough, as Durabooks are "military grade" and made for field repair / upgrades. With those upgrades, the three Durabooks now operate in the upper 90% of like computers and handle most of the kid's gaming. RECOMMENDED, by a degreed senior citizen. ... show more

  • SSD Drive is Awesome
Capacity: 1TB Style: Vulcan Z
I am a DJ / KJ and I had bought a mini pc that fits on the back of my monitor. When I bought it, it only came with a 512 gb M.2 NMVE SSD Drive Which great but I needed to add another ssd to hold all my music and karaoke files. I got this one after reading the reviews and I have to say it is working great and not only that the price was very low to a lot of others so I was a little skeptical and I am here to tell you no worries so far. I will probably get a couple more put my files on them for a back-up. ... show more

  • cheap and effective
Capacity: 1TB Style: Vulcan Z
One of the cheapest 1TB Sata SSD I have found. I honestly purchased this model because money has been a little tight. My PC Only had 500GB of memory and it quickly filled up for games and programs. I bought this to make it so I wouldnt have to constantly remove programs and games just to install another one. Small, light, fits in the standard SSD bracket. NotE: This does NOT come with Sata Power connector nor the Sata Data Cable. Most people should have the Sata Power cable in the box with their PC extras (But always check before assuming). The Sata Data Cable you may need to purchase separately (but very cheap) It was a simple process. Attach to bracket, slide bracket into rack that is in your PC Tower, and plug Power Supply to it, then plug the data cable to it and into the mother board. Done. Very non-invasive install. Was formatted in seconds once the PC was restarted (just using windows). Have had no issues with it, installed larger games at basically the same speed as my NVME SSD (I know its a 'little slower' but to me there was no discernable difference, still 50billion times better than an old school HDD). This does have SATA III compatibility (best data transfer rate in a cabled SSD currently. At this price you really can't beat it. Hopefully it keeps up for over a year or 2 and I'll be happy. Keep In Mind: It is BLANK. If you are replacing the ONLY harddrive you have with this one, you will need to know how to install the OS (probably via a USB boot). In my case, I was simply adding it on top of existing memory storage, so it was super easy. Went from 500GB to 1.5TB in 15 minutes. If you are replacing the only harddrive in your computer, it will take extra steps so your computer will actually have an operating system and work. Be sure to make those preparations. Please, Be sure to look up how to properly install an SSD before attempting. Not because its not easy, but if you have never done it you need to research a little so you do not damage your PC, but promise, its not much at all. Just don't blame the seller if you didn't bother to get the info before the install. ... show more

  • Great for my use case.
Capacity: 240GB Style: Vulcan Z
I wanted a cheap SSD for my 2011MBP to replace the 500gb Samsung 860 I gave to a family member. It was $15 and does the job just fine. For gaming, I'd prefer an m.2. This drive would also be great for gaming, but I gave it 3 stars because m.2's are the best and the same price.

  • This is awesome storage for less money than the regular guys
Capacity: 2TB Style: Vulcan Z
Unboxed and was pleased with the quality look and feel of this product. Installation was a snap, no issues, drive was registered and recognized instantly. Transfer rates were fast and furious, have been running for several weeks without so much as a stutter. First rate product

  • Using it as extended storage for my PS5
Capacity: 1TB Style: Vulcan Z
I have a regular old 2.5 HDD that I was using as extended storage, but it was only 500gb and fairly slow. This arrived in the mail a few days ago and paired it with a SATA 3 to USB-C cable that which I purchased with this SSD. It is definitely faster which is nice because when you're transferring games you cannot use the PS5 at all. It will still be slower than internal storage, but I transferred roughly 180gb worth of games onto this SSD in about 20 minutes. Previously, I did about 90gb on the old HDD in about 25-30 minutes. ... show more

  • Very good SSD!!!
Capacity: 1TB Style: Vulcan Z
May not be the best SSD you could get. But it is one of the best for it's price point but it works extremely well and I have noticed game installs and downloads are faster! I have not noticed any issues at all and it's nice to just have much needed extra storage with an easy installation.
