Review: Great Drive for the Price - I’ve had this drive for over a year now, and it’s still running like a champ! I used it to upgrade an old laptop that I turned into a game server for several different games, and the performance boost was night and day. The setup was super simple — I used free cloning software with an external drive reader, swapped it in, and it worked perfectly on the first try. If you’re looking for a reliable, affordable drive that delivers long-term performance, this one’s an excellent choice.
Review: Fast, Easy Upgrade for an Old Computer - Fast, Easy Upgrade for an Old Computer I put the SanDisk SSD PLUS 240GB into an older desktop that had been running off a traditional hard drive, and the difference was night and day. Boot times dropped from several minutes to under 30 seconds, and programs that used to crawl now open almost instantly. Even browsing feels snappier, which is a big quality-of-life improvement. Installation was straightforward—it’s a standard 2.5" SATA drive, so all I needed was a spare SATA cable and power connector. The 7mm profile fits easily into most desktops and laptops. I didn’t even need to format beforehand; I cloned the old drive using free software and swapped it in. Performance is rated up to 530 MB/s, and while I didn’t run formal benchmarks, it definitely feels in that range for everyday tasks. For a 240GB drive, you’ll want to be mindful of storage—it’s perfect for an OS drive with some programs, but not big enough if you want to store large media libraries or games. SanDisk has a solid reputation for reliability, and so far this SSD has been stable without hiccups or heat issues. It also runs silently compared to the hum of the old HDD. Bottom line: If you want an affordable, high-impact upgrade for an aging system, this SanDisk SSD is one of the easiest ways to breathe new life into it. Great speed boost, simple setup, and solid value.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An easy-to-install SSD drive that performs well -- at a great price
*by W***P on September 27, 2016*

I received this 240GB SSD in yesterday's mail on the 1st day of the 4-day promised delivery range. I was able to clone my C: harddrive to the SSD using the "HDClone 4" software (free version) that I have used for several years to backup the harddrive. It was as simple as cloning another harddrive, in fact, the SSD appeared just like another harddrive -- no change to anything (it plugs-in the same as any IDE harddrive). After a simple swap with my laptop's harddrive, it booted the 1st time into Windows XP with no glitches. My system is a 2007-vintage Toshiba A105-S4384 laptop, Windows® XP Pro Media Center Edition (SP3), Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor T5500 (1.66GHz, 667MHz FSB), 4GB DDR2, 160GB 7200rpm SATA Revision 2 harddrive, The SSD drive performs admirably. I've tested several different application's load times as well as cold boots into Windows. Results are consistently 50% to even 40% of the time taken by the replaced 7200rpm harddrive. With SATA Rev. 2 support, you should not expect the blazing speeds advertised -- they are based on an SATA Rev. 3 system (the SanDisk website explains this). Nevertheless, this SSD drive kicked my system into high gear -- it is much faster than it ever was. I was not able to download the "SanDisk SSD Dashboard" software, as Windows XP is not supported (Vista and forward are supported). Apparently, Dashboard is required to download firmware, so I wasn't able to do that. It may not be beneficial anyway, as XP is so old. The SSD drive itself is smaller than a standard 2 1/2" harddrive, and is almost weightless. It generates almost no heat. For the price ($67), this is a very good deal. It's an excellent product, and if you have SATA Revision 3 (see the BIOS), this will be a blazing fast drive with no risk of a head crash, and no need for defragmentation.
