Very speedy. Benchmarked this device compared to two Kingston 250Gb SATA SSDs on a RAID 0. Although the Kingstons outperformed this drive on sequential RW operations, this drive was twice as fast at random R/W operations

Faster boot, and better case airflow. Also very easy to install.

Outstanding value, and good performance.

Small and fast.

Still expensive storage.

fiddly to fit laptop didn't recognise it initially - required some manipulation

Works perfectly, good quality
