    A simple trick to speed up your old PC

    The big advantage of the Crucial SSD is that it comes with a special version of Acronis that makes it very easy to clone an old hard disk.

    All you have to do is answer a few simple questions to start the cloning process, which will take between 30 minutes and 2 hours depending on the data on the old hard drive.

    Then simply swap the old drive with the SSD and you'll have a PC that boots up in seconds (it'll change your life!).

    You can then buy an external enclosure to turn your old hard drive into a spare or backup drive.

    After 5 months it stopped working

    Bought in August, it's now January, and no game installed on this SSD runs normally. I installed the same games on my other SSD and everything works fine.

    Good SSD, fast and reliable

    Works perfectly well and has considerably increased the start-up and execution speed of an old computer dating from 2017.
