HP S650 240GB 2.5 Inch SATA III PC SSD Internal Solid State Hard Drive - 6 Gb/s, 3D NAND, Up to 540 MB/s for Laptop and Desktop Updating - 345M8AA#ABA

Works great. Easy to install. Do far it's running trouble free and I expect it to last.

I picked up this up to use as an external drive for me and my wife's MacBooks; mainly for Time Machine backups and general file storage. Paired with a USB 3.0 enclosure, it’s been a solid upgrade from using older/slower external hard drives.Setting it up was super easy—formatted it to APFS using Disk Utility, and it was ready to go in minutes. Transfer speeds are solid for a SATA SSD, averaging high 400MB/s when moving large files. It’s not the fastest SSD out there, but for backups, media storage, and everyday file transfers, it’s more than enough and it's getting the job done!

Cant go wrong with HP SATA SSDs. Ive used HP SATA SSDs, and even the ~120gb works 7 years later. I mention this because some other brands like Adata, I haven’t had good luck with. Those SATA drives have died out on MANY different computers I’ve built. Specifically SATA. But this 480gb SSD works great which speaks to the quality of the product, at least in my experience. Of course it was easy to install very typical computer building essentials.

I got the 256GB... for only $18 and it was delivered the next day. What's not to be happy about? I used it on my wife's Dell computer that no kidding... would take 6-7 full minutes to boot up. Her regular HDD was transferring data at a slow 2.3MBs . (she uses only about 50GB of space). I tried defragging and scanning for errors, and all looked good... but slow.. I purchased this, connected it with an external drive kit i have. Used Acronis to create a clone. Then swapped drives and it now takes only 40 seconds to boot and it's screaming fast.I scanned the new drive for errors and speed, and it's now transferring at 11MBs with no issues. I highly recommend this!NOTE that it's a bare drive with screws. I mounted it with heat resistant tape inside my larger HDD cage, but you may want to consider purchasing the correct size cage (adapter) for this to be screwed in to your larger HDD cage. This drive is SO small and light. The way I did it works for me. :-)

Great value for the price! Replace every HDD you have with a SSD, especially on clean installations. Easy to install, no mounting bracket at this price point, but who cares! Build quality is solid, performance is outstanding compared to traditional HDD's, and the space savings make it a very hard deal to pass up.

I really liked that the ssd formatting worked on the first without any issues. The only downside was the actual amount of space. I can’t complain, the speeds are terrific but out of the 512gb as shown, I only have 479. It is still great for the price you can’t go wrong with this ssd.Ps it may have issues with your pc/laptop if it’s not compatible.

Nice drive works well.

Installed in HP laptop that took literally 30 minutes to boot up, and then was so slow you could not use it. Now takes 30 seconds to boot up and is nice and snappy. Well worth the price.
