    This is an excellent means with the addition of RAM, RAM DISK to add significant speed to Intel Core 2 Duo machines and prepare them for upgrade to Windows 10.

    Just got this and so far it has been as good as advertised. I have a new Toshiba Satellite P75-A7200 which has 2 on-board drive bays. It came with a 750 Gig HDD. It also has 4 RAM slots and can take up to 32 Gigs of RAM. Im using 24 Gigs of RAM now and I recommend upgrading your RAM first and then getting a new Samsung SSD drive. It makes the cloning or migration go much faster. So I opened up my Toshiba underneath and inserted the SSD into drive bay #2. Booted laptop back up. The drive comes with a CD which has the Samsung migration software on it. Install the software and it will recognize your main drive and your new SSD drive. I ran the software and it took just 35 minutes to clone my original hard drive to the new SSD. That was about 116 Gigs of data total. If I hadnt put 24 Gigs of RAM in the laptop first then I think it may have taken about 90 minutes to migrate everything. Once cloning was complete, shut laptop down unplug everything (remove battery as well) and move the new SSD from bay #2 to bay #1. I put my old drive aside and did not install it in bay #2 yet. Put laptop back together and booted it up with the new SSD. Super fast! My laptop boot time went from about 30 seconds to 6 seconds. Reboot time went from about 50 seconds to about 18 to 20 seconds! The O/S and all applications are blazing fast now compared to the regular HDD with just 8 Gigs of RAM. Upgrading to 24 Gigs of RAM also was a big plus for running multiple apps at the same time. My laptop runs much faster, much quieter, and much cooler while producing less heat out of the fan on the side. After playing around with things a while to test out the new drive to make sure everything migrated properly and it was running properly, I then shut everything down (shutdown time is now just 5 seconds also). Flipped laptop over, opened it up again and I re-installed my original 750 Gig HDD into drive bay #2. Put back together again and booted it up. My system now recognizes both drives. C: drive is now the Samsung SSD Evo 850 with 250 Gigs. And now my original 750 Gig HDD is recognized as drive E: Opened up 2 sessions of Windows Explorer side by side and started comparing all files and folders between both drives. Identical. I deleted all big music and video files, etc. from the new SSD so that its as clean as possible with mainly just the O/S Windows 8.1 Pro and my applications. Everything else is still stored on the original HDD since it has 750 Gigs of space on it. I was initially weary of trying to do this upgrade because I read so much online about people having all kinds of errors and other issues getting the migration software to work or getting their PCs to boot up in the correct order, or having to make a bunch of BIOS settings changes. Maybe I got lucky, because this whole upgrade process barely took 90 minutes with testing everything out. I did not have to make any boot or BIOS or any other system changes at all for that matter. I did not run into any errors. The migration software from Samsung worked perfectly the first try. So far this whole upgrade has gone flawlessly, so maybe I got lucky compared to others I read about. So if you want a blazing SSD as a primary O/S and application drive, Id say this is definitely the one to go with. The speed boost is awesome, and of course you just get more reliability and safety with SSD compared to HDD which has moving parts and will break down much quicker over time. Your laptop or PC will last longer too as it will produce less heat and the fan wont have to run as much. If you have a laptop with 2 drive bays then this is the way to go while using another drive in bay #2 as a storage drive. Oh...and copy speed between the drives is also blazing fast. Having 24 Gigs of RAM helps as well. So you can copy a few big movie files from drive 2 over to drive 1 to play in no time at all. Id rather play them on the SSD so that my HDD isnt spinning and making noise and heat, etc. Then you can just delete the movie files from the SSD when done so that you dont take up much room on it. My Toshiba Satellite P75-A7200: 17.3 1080p, i7 Quad-Core, Win 8.1 Pro, 24GB RAM, SSD 250GB primary, HDD 750GB back-up

    Best SSD Ive ever come in contact with, will never go back to mechanical drives for personal use again!

    Very quick and adequate storage for the price. I bought this SSD to replace a hybrid 8GB SSD/1TB HDD that bite the dust (RIP). A clean install of Windows 10 on this drive was like stepping into the modern age. EVERYTHING is faster. My OS loads up in about 10 seconds, my startup applications all spring up immediately, my browser cooks right along, and game textures load in without a hitch. The storage is a bit limited, but I simply installed a 3TB HDD to store all of the files and programs that arent as demanding for high I/O and it works out nicely. I highly recommend this drive.

    This is an amazing upgrade to any computer, Mac or Windows, results are amazing! Installed well on both a Windows 7 ASUS notebook and a late 2008 MacBook Aluminum. An impressive piece of hardware for any machine.

    Not an expert on SSDs but I have owned 2 of these drives and they have performed amazingly. This is my brand of preference for SSDs.

    Worked perfectly out of the box. I used the enclosed software to clone my C Drive partition and it cloned flawlessly. My windows experience rating is now 7.9, the highest rating available and my Win 7 machine boots in 14 seconds per Glary Utilities. Great SSD.
