Quick Solid State Drive
 
Review Date: March 15, 2010
Reviewer: jimmys, UK
I have this running in a Windows 7 desktop system with a Core i7-750 CPU and a mechanical hard drive for data. By the way, the best way to store your data on the D drive is to use the libraries in Windows 7 - I had to search the Internet for ages to find this out.

The system is incredibly quick and responsive for everyday tasks (opening programs, Internet browsing) and can handle anything else I've thrown at it quickly too. Not sure how it will last yet as I've only had it about a month, but I've turned off the automatic defrag and am optimistic as I've had good experiences with Crucial kit in the past. It is probably a little expensive at them moment (£150) but I'm sure the prices will come down.
Fantastic upgrade

I've just replaced a very fast 7200rpm 2.5" drive for this SSD drive and although new tech hardly ever makes me take notice, this did, in a big way. Although having only 64Gb might not be enough for most people (I have put the 7200rpm drive into the laptops expansion bay as storage), if you can manage to get an additional drive, I still feel that it's a valid upgrade. The area where the previous drive sat has no heat at all due to the change (Another benefit)

I don't think that I'll ever have a laptop without SSD again. (Just ordered a 128Gb version for my other machine)

I miss off one star as 64Gb is a bot small and they really should have started at 128Gb (Heaven help people if they've purchased a 30Gb model) :)
