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

Took me several tries to get it to even take windows 7. I downloaded the dashboard from sandisk but was not compatable with my current computer? LOL running win7ultimate on 2 year old custom built. So had to get out an old computer to and finally got it to work. Put it in my wifes laptop with hopes of it being faster than the standard hard drive. Results: Not a noticeable increase in speed. Battery life dropped way off. Battery hog. She just runs the system with power cord attached now. Would probably not buy another till I was satisfied it will perform as promised. But for a cheap ssd, was ok I guess

I have had this ssd drive for a few months now and I really have no complaints about it. Works well and it doesnt break the bank. Only thing I can say that I have an issue with is I cant find any where in the discription that states if this is an mlc drive or a blc drive. That is good information to have because the preformance difference between the two matters, in speed and longevity of the drive. This of course doesnt change the fact that this is a good ssd, just would like to know all the details about the drive on amazons product page vs having to go to the SanDisk website to find that information out.

Boot time on Windows 7 is 15 seconds at most, with an AMD 8370e processor and 12gb DDR3 ram. Most of the time Im first in-game on CSGO, and Im sure this drive has something to do with that. Negative part about this drive is it makes my Western Digital blue drive seem slow as a snail, and my laptops 5400rpm drive like a snail in molasses. Ive been debating buying a second one for my laptop, with the only thing stopping me being having to do a fresh install of Windows. If youre on the fence with an SSD, its a very noticeable and worthy upgrade.

For a quick replacement to upgrade my grandmothers laptop speeds, it was well worth the price. It is not the fastest on the market, but a reliable SSD nonetheless. I would go with the Extreme Pro models for my own devices, but to simply gain a boot and xfer speed increase over magnetic HDDs, it is a great investment. With todays options, the boot speeds on SSDs are pretty similar unless you get to the real high end ones.. and this does not give a massive benefit if xferring files to/from a magnetic drive (due to the magnetic drives bottleneck), so if you can pick one of these up cheap, it can be another storage drive to be able to take advantage of other SSDs xfer speeds, but I mainly purchase these type of models for simple HDD to SSD upgrade jobs. I would recommend to others as long as the price is right/reasonable.

This product works great. All the benefits of a SSD are realized, including super fast Windows boot times. My PC only supports SATA3, and this drive is backwards compatible with the older SATA. Highly recommend a SSD to bring life to an older PC. I tried the SanDisk clone utility software after downloading and installing it, but, it was cumbersome. Since I was moving from a Western Digital disk to this SanDisk, I downloaded and used the free Western Digital cloning software instead, which worked great and is easy to use with a Wizard function to walk you thru the steps. You have to have a WD disk on your system to use this software.

I have been using this SSD for about a month now, and so far no regrets. The price point of the SSD was significantly lower that others of similar capacity. Boot time on my system with this SSD is 20 seconds, compared to a conventional HD at just over 2 minutes. Application launch time appears to be about 2-3x faster as well. As for reliability, time will be the judge, but since I have been using other SanDisk products for 15 years without any issues, I am confident this SSD will not disappoint. As other users have noted, this does not come with cloning software, but there are many available for free.

I ordered this hard drive to replace a failed 5200 rpm drive in my netbook. My HP DM1Z is about 4 year old and is connected to my TV to assess content like you tube and amazon instant videos that my 6 year old Samsung TV does not support anymore. It was really easy to install with included spacer to accommodate this thinner drive and I was able to put on my windows 7 ISO without any problem. I would say that I do not use this computer as some of the other people, but I am completely satisfied with performance of this drive and would not hesitate to recommend or use in my other systems.

It does what an SSD should

I ordered a total of 3 for use in 3 of

I bought this to use in an Atomos Ninja 2 video recorder for my camera after having a discussion with Atomos support to ensure compatibility. They actually told me this model should appear on their official supported list. I already have an inexpensive larger HDD that I use for longer jobs (3+ hour concerts on a stationary camera, etc), but I wanted an SSD for jobs that I might require more shock-proofing if going off-tripod with the recorder. This is a perfect fit for that- performance is not the fastest on the market (Sandisk has other lines such as the extreme for that), but it is very respectable for an SSD in todays standards, and faster than my first-generation Intel SSD currently in my workstation. And if youre comparing to a mechanical HDD, were not even in the same ballpark either way. These are FAST and solid. And I trust Sandisk a lot more than other brands out there. In fact, Im impressed enough with the quality-to-cost ratio that I might pick up another one to replace my workstations older and smaller model. Great buy!
