SanDisk SSD Plus 120GB 2.5-Inch SDSSDA-120G-G25 (Old Version)

Installed this on my 15 Macbook Pro (mid 2012 model). I dont use too much space on my HDD, so I opted for the 120GB SSD for blazing fast start-up speeds and application control. The speed is well worth it. Easy install, also comes with a frame for the SSD. My only complaint is that it does not come with any spacers. I now have a little extra room in the HDD bay, and can noticeably hear the SSD moving around frequently. Despite the spacing, I would recommend for anyone looking to add some life back into their machine.

Solid SSD upgrade at a competitive price, however this is more of a middle of the road performer in that its definitely an improvement over any harddrive in the way of speed but the difference between this and a Samsung Evo is like night and day. Whats odd is that the write speed, while still greater than a harddrive, is still slower than expected. Still, a very good starting point for those on a budget, but I urge that users make the effort to get an Evo instead

IT REALLY WORKS WELL!!! I have replaced my old HDD from my ASUS K55VJ and the result is perfect. (Processor Intel® Core™ i7 3610QM, RAM 8GB DDR3) SDD works stable and great. (505MB Read and 213.8MB Write) The major opinion during the choosing this SSD was the READ SPEED and then WRITE SPEED. I have tested this SSD using the Crystal Disk Mark and the results are shown on picture. Fully acceptable for Notebook use. Recommended for all users who wantS to get the SSD with AFFORDABLE PRICE. Thanks SANDISK for this product for this price. (I have purchased this SSD for USD 55.00) ALL THE BEST, Vakhtang

I have several of these and they have all proven to be excellent performers. The latest acquisition was added to an aging Dell Vostro Slim that I use for video capture and editing. The hard drive that it replaced became the storage drive for the machine. The reason for the replacement was that the original hard drive would have spells of high activity resulting in annoying delays during editing. The Dell doesnt have advanced SATA so the actual SSD performance measurements are not representative of the drives capabilities. The notable point is that the editing delays are gone and I have a high performance SSD for the next machine when needed. If you have an aging desktop or laptop that can handle SATA this SSD will improve your performance significantly. I have added SSDs to an older Toshiba and a HP/Compaq with excellent performance improvements.

Pros: system is faster when doing a virus scan, and boot time is shorter. Con: I had planned to use an image to load the drive. found out that if the drive where the image was taken is larger than the SSD (which was my case), the image will not install. I had to load from scratch. Not the end of the world, but if you are converting to solid state from a mechanical drive, chances are your mechanical drive will be larger, even if the image of C: is not, and you will not be able to load the image. I gave the product 5 stars because you cant blame the product for ignorance. SanDisk has always been a trusted name.

This was a great purchase for a decent price. This SSD seems to be a tad cheaper than the other ones of a similar capacity, which is great for me since I only have so much money. Anyway, I bought this to replace the old 120 gig hard drive in my 2008 Core 2 Duo (White plastic) MacBook. I wanted a speed boost and Im sure the old drive was beginning to go anyway. I received the SSD on time without any hassles. To install it in my MacBook, I put the SSD into an external USB enclosure, then used the Disk Utility in Mac OS X to clone the hard drive to the SSD. The process for me took about 2 hours, but that may vary depending on how many files and software you have, whether you have USB 2.0 or 3.0, etc etc. After the cloning was complete it was just a matter of taking the battery out of my MacBook and swapping the drives. Everything worked right away, and even though my MacBook only has SATA I speeds, there was a HUGE difference in the speed of the laptop. Programs that used to take forever to open now started almost instantly, and the computer now takes only ~30 seconds to boot up to a usable desktop. And when I shut down the computer, it turns off pretty much right away, as opposed to before when it would take a minute or so to close down everything. 3 months later and the SSD is still kicking, and I think its safe to say this brought some new life into my 8 going on 9 year old laptop. If anyone has an older desktop or laptop and they want to get some more speed out of it, and theyve already upgraded the RAM and whatnot, I definitely recommend this, or any SSD for that matter.

I mainly bought this for my Xbox One and I also purchased a Inateck housing for my SSD. If youre looking to speed up your Xbox One or maybe even your PS4 by shaving down some seconds from your load time then this will help you out. Before it would take me almost 2 minutes from powering on my Xbox and arriving in the tower in Destiny. Now it takes me about a minute and 27 seconds. Think about it if you can save yourself 2 to 5 minutes a day from your gaming experience from loading, you could probably save yourself 20 to 30 hours a year by shaving off load time.

First of all the drive works well. Entry level so dont expect super duper fast reads and writes. Two stars drop off because of the difficulty in transferring from the old hard drive from the laptop to the ssd drive. I know that cheap is the key word here and that no software utility or other means of cloning come with the drive. The drive that I was replacing had Windows 10 and on a fairly slow laptop which I was wanting to speed up. A free cloning utility is available, EaseUS and that part was painless except that once completed, the boot sector on the cloned drive needed repaired to be bootable. So, since I have no Windows 10 installation disk, Microsoft allows download of repair disk image which has to be installed onto a flash drive or DVD. An hour or two later after digging up the required programs, the drive was fully functional. Next since I wanted to test the drive, I downloaded the Sandisk SSD Dashboard program. What a joke that is! Never had a program refuse to run if the screen resolution didnt suit the program. Well, another visit to Sandisk site an.after several adjustments to the supported resolution, the program came alive. I went to the performance section clicked and up popped another program problem with my computer. Back to Sandisk support site, digging found there was two possible solutions, edit a registry key if it existed; it didnt. Then go to the command line and enter a string of characters and it didnt work either. So after fooling around with this dog and pony show I flat out quit wasting time and uninstalled SSD Dashboard and classified it as another piece of useless software.

I LOVE IT!! Seller delivered on time! Product works even better than I expected, Now I just need an upgrade Motherboard.. Right now Im stuck with a SATA II .. 3Gbps.. And my boot time is still less than 30 seconds! This is simply the FASTEST upgrade I have ever done to my pc!! Hands down.. It even took my windows 7 install in record time..I do HIGHLY recommend going to the you tube academy to learn how to correctly move your temp internet files to your regular harddrive. Pics and docs, and music, maybe not so hard for most of you.. But equally as important.. yes its limited to literally Millions of reads and writes.. but why waste them when you can simple relocate them to a regular harddrive.. program files as well. BUT< you can change the storage location when you reinstall, this imfo IS NOT included in the instructions. so you must seek it out on your own, Bot no fear, the You Tube Academy has you covered!

Used this as the boot drive on a new computer build, and I just love how fast it brings Windows 10 up. This is not the most recent version of this drive, so if you want to be cutting edge, you may want to look at the next gen version. But this is a VERY good performer so far, The ONLY issue was that the Win 7 installer had be updated to recognize the drive as I was installing Win 7 and then upgrading it to 10. There are faster drives out there, but this performs pretty well - I really dont think that most people are going to notice a huge difference between this and comparable SATA 2 drives. There are better options for SATA 3 machines, but for SATA 1 and 2 machines, this is a good cost/performance balance so far, especially if you can get it on sale...
