I purchased this SSD hard drive, and I have been incredibly impressed with its performance. This hard drive has exceeded my expectations in terms of speed, reliability, and overall quality. First and foremost, the SSD hard drive has dramatically improved the speed of my computer. Starting up the PC and opening applications takes a fraction of the time it used to with my old hard drive.

It looks fantastic in my setup, and the compact size means that it doesn't take up much space on my desk. Finally, I want to mention how easy it was to install.

Its impressive speed, reliability, and overall quality make it an excellent choice for anyone looking for a high-performance hard drive that will stand the test of time.

First impressions were on receipt. Ths SSD is so light, that initially, on receipt, I thought there was nothing in the box (actually lighter than a floppy disk ! which is amazing OK down to facts: Very easy to install. If you are fortunate, the SSD will fit exactly into the old frame, everything should line up nicely (I have a HP Pavilion Entertainment This machine is running good after 10 years. I Purchased a Win 7 disc with a bonus disk of additional drivers. Loaded to the SSD which BTW you do not have to format, or partition, just leave the new drive Unallocated, and the Win 7 disc will do the rest Results after loading with Win 7 A quick test Power down the laptop Power on after after brief 10seconds, and My God, this is where you will see a remarkable difference Previously, the old HDD took about 2 minutes or more at times to reach the Desktop, which included router activation kicking in and settling down (am running Broadband BTW, out of choice. Now the SSD kicks in immediately with super speed, reaching Desktop in approximately 25 SECONDS, ready to go, equating to about FIVE times faster Will be interesting to see how things go after a few months...I don't expect anything less than this speed One good thing is, I won't bother getting fibre connection as my brother tell me he is getting the same speed results with his fibre connection as I am with plain Broadband Overall, a fantastic drive, well worth the outlay. Easy to install and you won't regret swapping this for your old slow outdated HDD.. Go for it and enjoy

The WD Blue 500GB SSD is fantastic! Installation was straightforward, and it’s noticeably faster than my old hard drive. Great value for solid performance, definitely recommend if you want to upgrade your storage.

Fitted this to an HP AMD A10 Quad core laptop with 8gb of ram. This machine was struggling with windows updates with it's original 1tb HDD fitted. WOW!! What a difference! Like a new machine. Turn it on and Pow! Up and running in a matter of seconds! Was minutes with the HDD. Windows updates took hours with the HDD fitted and when downloading updates, rendered the machine unusable. Not with this drive fitted though. Windows updates downloaded and installed in a matter of minutes. Right.....to the install. I did buy this with the intention of cloning the HDD over but decided to re-install windows 10 and then all my other software. For those who don't know, Microsoft do a setup media creation tool which you can use to download Windows 10. As long as you have a windows licence, you can re-install Windows using a flash drive or DVD. My laptop has a digital licence, so didnt need to enter a key code. I have quite alot of music production software on my machine so it took me a long time to log onto various websites to find out how to re-register licences etc but once I'd done this and re-installed everything, the laptop worked like a dream. This is one of the best tech purchases I've made in a long time. If you're thinking of upgrading to a SSD from a HDD drive, do it. You'll be amazed at the difference it makes. Note: You do need to know your way around a computer though. Just getting into back of the machine itself was a bit fiddly and you have to be careful not to break anything. Once I was into the machine, there was a ribbon cable installed over the top of the HDD, which i had to remove to enable me to change the drives over. I had to be very careful not to damage this when removing the HDD and then re-attaching after installing the SDD. Once the computer is re-assembled, you may possibly need to enter the computer's Bios to change the boot order and also re-install the up to date drivers and software for your machines hardware. HP have a great website where I was able to input my machine's serial number. The website then listed all the drivers and software available for my machine. Tip: Down load and install one thing at a time. This way you can make sure everything works as you install them and avoid glitches. If you're not good with computers, maybe let a local computer guy do it for you. I've put three stars for ease of install due to the fact that computers are not the easiest things to upgrade sometimes. Nothing to do with the SDD itself though. Hope this helps someone thinking of upgrading.

Ho atteso l'uscita di questa nuova versione degli SSD di Western Digital, versione 3D NAND, un pelino più veloce della generazione precedente (e naturalmente anche un pelino più costosa) per dare nuova vita al mio Mac mini late 2014. Computer che era diventato mostruosamente lento e non riuscivo a spiegarmi il motivo, un processore i5 da 2,6 GHz supportato da 8GB di Ram non può metterci quasi 2 minuti ad avviarsi e 40 minuti per fare un editing di un video di una decina di minuti, in fin dei conti lo utilizzo prevalentemente per questo. Quindi soluzione: sostituire il Fusion Drive da 1TB con questo WD SSD 3D NAND. Risultato: guardate il video per credere... una manciata di secondi per l'avvio. Tutte le operazioni di utilizzo quotidiano (e non) si sono velocizzate, il PC e' tornato come nuovo. E' non e' tutto merito della "formattazione" e "re-installazione" del sistema operativo, in quanto ho ripristinato il back-up effettuato con Time Machine. La spesa per passare da un classico HDD meccanico (od ibrido, nel caso del Fusion Drive) e' quasi pari al doppio ma, credetemi, ne vale la pena e benedirete tutti i soldi spesi. Capacita' che arrivano fino a 2TB e velocità di trasferimento di 560MB/s in lettura e di 530MB/s in scrittura, mettiamoci poi i 5 anni di garanzia e la completa silenziosita', vista l'assenza di parti meccaniche in movimento, fanno di questo SSD di Western Digital un vero e proprio "Must Buy". Ultra-stra-consigliato!

Excelente produto, marca reconhecida no mercado.

Disque Dur SSD parfaitement conforme à la description. Fonctionne superbement après un clonage avec le système d'exploitation du disque précédent. Je recommande sans réserve ce produit Western Digital.

Pedido veio antes do prazo final, bem embalado, fácil de instalar, loga confiável. Já instalei e já estou usando, computador é quase outro. Recomendo.
