    Great SSD for the price. I used it to replace an old laptop hard drive. The laptop runs faster then ever. I did have to get a 3 party cloning software because the one that came included did not work for me.

    5/5 for the product, 0/5 for the data migration software, 2/5 for crutial software, so overall 3/5. The product itself is great, decent quality at reasonable price. But the data migration software comes with it is a piece of sh*t. So I had an old 240GB SSD with only ~20GB space available. So I bought this new SSD and wanted to migrate data from my old drive into this new one. I used the migration software (Acronis) to migrated my data and use all default settings. The migration was smooth however after rebooting I only found theres a 240GB partition in my new 750GB drive, the rest 500GB was not allocated! The only reason I buy a larger drive is to have more space, and the migration software failed to allocate more space to the main partition! I tried again to see if I was able to adjust the partition size during the migration, nope. I either had to create another ~500GB partition with the 240GB partition almost full or figure out a way to merge those 2 partitions. (Trust me its not easy cuz they are not adjacent partitions) Finally I found some workaround to merge the unused 500GB to main partition and get a ~690GB partition. Took me half a day to do so and Im pretty frustrated. If only the migration software could do its job it would be so much easier. It looks like clonezilla is able to clone a smaller drive to a larger drive without such problem, but use with caution, I did not verify this. Also the Crucial Storage Executive said I had 0MB of DRAM so I cannot turn on Momentum Cache, which is the most important feature imo... its another WTF moment Im just done for the day.

    Arrived on time and perfect condition! I had to put into an external docking case before instilling it to format it for MAC OS. I opted for a fresh install so i chose to install a brand new copy of El Capitan. This involved downloading a copy from the Apple store to a flash drive and the instaliing the new drive and running the set up from the flash drive. There are plenty of options to clone your current drive (some free) so you can clone and then install and you are done. My mid 2012 MBP saw a huge preformance increase with this drive. I changed to this HD and also went from 8gig of MEM to 16gig of MEM - it is like a brand new computer now.

    I rebuilt my computer last year and didnt upgrade to an ssd. My computer was what I would considered to be pretty fast but I didnt realize just how much my old HDD was slowing me down. Since upgrading to this MX300 750GB ssd my os boot time dropped from 1 minute 7 seconds to a blazing 15 seconds total and I should add that before even after the 1:07 with the hdd it was still loading background programs. With the ssd, in 15 seconds, EVERYTHING was loaded and ready to go. Also my video games also load in about half the time they used to. Some of the other reviews here said they didnt like the included software. Well I shouldnt have read that. I used another software that Id heard about and the one I chose didnt clone the boot portion of my old drive. Long story short...... I ended up reformatting the new ssd and cloning it again with the included software and I had it up and going in no time (minus the time it takes to transfer, which took a while considering I transferred 500GB). This is absolutely one of the best upgrades you can do to your PC, especially if you are an advanced user (gamer, video editor, ect) I will update this review down the road if I have any issues.

    Bought it for my Asus G752VS laptop. Has usable capacity of 698.64 GB. Been using it for a month or two as my main drive for games (System drive is an M.2 SSD). Extremely fast. Dont have any complaints yet.

    Replaced a 6y/o hdd with this. its better than new. i used Macrium Reflect instead of Acronis. Take the time to manage your partitions so you dont have unallocated space separated from the drive you want to expand. It took about three hours to clone the hdd to ssd via usb 2.0 cable. An excellent upgrade.

    Worked right out of the box! Came with Acronis cloning software license key but not needed. Everything worked as expected, no drama. Crucials Storage Executive and Momentum Cache were running great! Lot of interesting information, e.g. S.M.A.R.T. about the legacy HD and etc. even help updated drive firmware. Package only has a spacer but no 3.5 inch tray or cable. Comes with 3 years warranty. We shall see. Am a little skeptical but check out the performance gains after enabling Momentum Cache and Crystal Disk Mark. (see uploaded images)

    Got this drive to upgrade an Asus laptop that I recently purchased. I was migrating from an older Asus Laptop and I had also purchased a USB to SATA cable to image the drive. I found out that you cannot image the drive through a USB and have it bootable. Both machines were running Windows 10. I used Macrium Reflect free for doing a backup of my old drive to another external hard drive over USB. I then created a USB boot drive using the utility in Macrium Reflect (boot and recovery/restore tools)...set the BIOS in my new laptop to boot from the USB drive...installed the Crucial drive in my new laptop...booted using the USB drive...and then restored the three partitions from the backup (separate USB drive) to the new Crucial drive. I then used the utility to fix the boot sector (1st partition) then shut down the computer. I then crossed my fingers and rebooted...it booted normally and discovered the new hardware and installed the correct drivers. I found that you must have the SSD drive hooked up to a SATA interface and do a restore instead of cloning the old drive directly (I had tried this first without success). I hope this helps anyone looking to upgrade their laptop.

    0-100 real Quick. My laptop would take literally 5 minutes to boot. Thats just to boot. Then loading programs or other things would take for ever. I was looking into buying a new laptop but Im glad I did some research first. My laptop now takes literally 5 seconds to boot. I dont do anything fancy with computers so glad I didnt have to spend on new one.

    With an SATA-to-USB 3.0 adapter, this works great as a portable USB drive. Its super-fast for back-ups and file transfers, and its so much smaller than a typical external USB drive. Eventually, this will make its way into a desktop system replacing a 3.5 7200rpm 500 GB hard-drive...from experience, I can anticipate huge performance improvements with an solid-state drive in that system.
