ADATA SSD 240GB 2.5 SATA SU630 - ASU630SS-240GQ-R, Internal SSD Storage

This is one of the fastest hard you can buy at this price.

Always a fan of adata. Will continue to purchase their products

Pros: reasonably inexpensive and a good value. Cons: Not as fast as others I purchased this drive to replace an ailing mechanical hard drive on a older system. It is easy to install but it came with no screws or mounting hardware. You really cannot expect that for what you are paying. The install went rather smoothly and all the software loaded up fine. I was expecting a much faster response from an SSD but as this is an economy drive you realistically can’t expect that for the price. This is a drive only packaging and it is no frills. As I said earlier I expected it to be a little faster than it was but it is still much faster than a mechanical hard drive.

This SSD will speed up your computer!

This is only the second SSD Ive ever owned, so maybe theres nothing wrong with it. The first one I bought (an Adata 120GB) has always run rather cool. However, this one tends to show high spikes in temperature (up to 128F) when its working hard. Ive removed the cover from the PC and blow air into the case to keep it cool. My theory: more chips producing heat within a confined space means the heat accumulates quickly and dissipates slowly.

Not much to it. SSD prices are dropping. Bought this to be my main CPU hard drive and will switch my storage to SSD pretty soon. Boots up fast and everything

For the money, it is a good solid state drive. No issues and easy to install. Unless you need tons of storage, this is a good hard drive. Would buy again without hesitation

Good SSD

Like the headline says, it arrived bent! Why? Because: 1. Shoddy construction consisted of a bottom thin metal shell and a plastic top shell, which makes it much less sturdy when compared to other SSDs out on the market. 2. Blister packaging. Again, plastic to protect electronic components isnt exactly the best practice out there. I tested the drive in an external enclosure and it did boot up, but the risk of sudden failure wasnt worth the hassle of keeping it and wondering when it would suddenly die WITH YOUR PRECIOUS DATA. Fortunately, Amazon took it back easily. This is not worth it, especially considering the other problems with DRAMless SSDs and endurance issues with QLC nand.

One of these drives was DOA and not recognized by BIOS. And since I ordered it in March, despite not opening it until now to install in a customers machine, I cant return it through Amazon. Wont even give me the option to request one. So Im going to have to call them to arrange this, go figure.
