EXCELLENT: 1TB SSD perfect in every way: price and quality

MX500 1TB installation on a 17" Toshiba C670-17H laptop purchased from LDLC in 2012: W7.1, Intel I3, 500GB Objectives: Replace the HDD due to its 6 years of age with intensive use before a potential crash in order to gain in speed and to double the disk surface to 1TB. Results: Fantastic. The Crucial cloning procedure is perfect. The software offered for installation is accessible to a non-expert. Conclusion: I took advantage of the 10% discount on SSDs. In addition to being technically satisfied, 246.91€ including delivery, quality/price ratio without equivalent to date. I recommend both LDLC and the SSD 2.5" Crucial MX500 1TB.

Disappointed

Bought as a replacement for Veloceraptor which had a SMART problem, I used this SDD for 11 months before it totally stopped working with my 11 months of work on it plus about 800GB of another drive, so much for lost work. This is the first time I've used an SSD so I asked around and it seems that the problem with this technology is that it stops working without warning, so it's a good fast and quiet drive but you need to have a backup solution as it could cost you a lot more than the price you pay.

        I expected no less, they did no less

        I bought 2 MX500s because I was disappointed with the BX500s.
        Mounted in Raid0, the performance is great, around 1 GB/s, compared to 70 to 110 MB/s for the BX500 (and 250 MB/s for my old Raid0 in Hdd).

        I would recommend

        Very good SSD

        My laptop is much faster with this SSD, especially when booting up. Installation went without a hitch. This drive heats up less than the previous platter drive.

        SSD disk

        Hello
        I am satisfied with the delivery time and the products are well packaged.
        I'm a bit disappointed with the Crucial brand for making a clone.
        The information and tool for creating clones is not easy to find and did not allow me to make a copy of my old disk as planned.
        Sincerely

        Light speed

        Switching from an HDD (with OS installed on it) to this SSD: my old laptop from 2014 comes back to life! Switch-on time reduced from 5 minutes to less than 20 seconds.

        Too much growth

        A 30% increase between two orders is not normal.
        It makes the moi.s product competitive and pushes towards an alternative.

        In the buff

        Once again, acquired to get a machine equipped with a hard disk drive back into shape: night and day in terms of the machine's usability.
        A little extra that can be useful in certain situations: supplied with a 9mm adaptor (useful for preventing movement of the 7mm SSD in laptops with a slot for a 9mm drive).

        Solid delivery package.
        Crucial because easy to use thanks to their partnership with a manufacturer known for backups and management of Disks, facilitating the replacement of the old mechanical disk to this SDD by cloning, on the other hand it requires a kit Adapter USB 3.0 / SATA 2.5" SSD-HDD self-powered.
        I also needed an adapter kit for 1 HDD/SSD 2.5" in a 3.5" bay.

        I've had a couple of problems with the SSD but I can't work out whether it's the SSD, my motherboard or the SATA cable. Apart from that, it does the job :)

        Reliable performance in an understated design

        The Crucial MX500 1TB, a solid choice for an SSD. Highlights include reliable read/write speed performance, which can dramatically improve load times and overall system performance. It uses 3D NAND technology, which contributes to better endurance and reliability. What's more, it often comes with management software that can be useful for monitoring the health of the SSD.

        However, in terms of design, it's fairly plain, which may appeal to some, but may look a little boring to others who are looking for something flashier. All in all, it's a solid choice for improving your system's storage performance.

        Fast SSD

        A good SSD that is fast, cheap, reliable (not my first). For Linux(toutou linux) or Windows, the disk is recognized at startup. Ideal to give a second youth to a "computerosaurus".

        Crucial is a very good brand, personally I take Crucial or Samsung, even Corsair, not the rest.

        Fast and on time delivery.
        Purchased to replace an old HDD in a 2015 laptop that took forever to power up. Cloning via Macrium Reflect Free, quick installation and ssd up and running straight away. The pc only takes a few tens of seconds to turn on, a second wind for my machine!

        I bought the disk alone, which is not mountable without a special pad in the Lenovo. The support indicated me a case for external connection which arrived very quickly. I was then helped with the formatting of the disk, which is not offered by Windows, you have to go into the disk manager.
        The support is therefore very useful and without delay.

        I am satisfied with this product. I have finally found some speed. I'm glad. On the other hand, a small problem with the Acdsee photo software. The thumbnails are no longer readable due to pixel distortion? The problem is that when the photo is enlarged, the thumbnails are no longer visible!

        I'm not sure what to say about this wonderful device... it works perfectly well for gaming and not to mention the price is very low for an SDD of this quality.
        I recommend it without hesitation.

        Really a noticeable difference (use Clonezilla to clone a PC)

        I installed this SSD on a laptop running Windows 10, the hard drive was still at 100% usage and the PC took quite a long time to boot (about 10s) and chrome took a huge amount of time to load.
        After installation, the PC boots in 4s, and chrome is instant!!!
        However, I could not use the Acronis for Crusial software that was provided to clone the old hard drive to the SSD...Their software does not work well to detect the SSD, which is mandatory for the software license...Very poorly thought out system!
        I used Clonezilla, OpenSource linux library, which can be installed on a USB key...No need to know much about computers, just follow the wizard and it's done!

        Easy to install, meets expectations

        Easily installed, even on older machines, performance is much better than a traditional disk, it gives a computer a new lease of life without having to change everything.

        very good

        Just replaced an old 750gb DDR on my almost 8 year old Samsung laptop, it has given it a new lease of life, it boots up in under 30 seconds for 2 minutes or more before.
