    Absolutely wonderful SSD!
    5 Stars
    Absolutely wonderful SSD!
    UPDATE: I purchased the 1TB of this SSD as well! I replaced the one that was installed in my gaming PC (a 500GB). It has performed beautifully. I've toyed with the possibility of turning the Momentum Cache off since Windows does a pretty good job of caching things in memory already, but just seeing the numbers makes me rethink this. At-any-rate it's absolutely a great SSD!!!OLD REVIEW (for the 500GB SSD): I bought this SSD to replace the one in the laptop my employer provided for me. That laptop had an 5400 RPM HDD in it, and after getting used to the same exact SSD in my gaming computer at home I decided to just go ahead and put one of these SSDs in it! Great decision!!! Read and Write speeds went from around 2-10Mbps to upwards of 2500-5000Mbps (with Momentum Cache via Crucial's Storage Executive software)! That's simply amazing!!! Keep this up, Crucial, and I'll never buy another brand!!! SUPERB!!!
