Does what it is supposed to do. Boots Win10 up in seconds. Great for programs that read a lot from the drive Does what it is supposed to do. Boots Win10 up in seconds. Great for programs that read a lot from the drive

Very good value for a good price. Very good value for a good price.

Brought this on a sale PB Tech were having to replace an old hard drive in a computer.

It has sped up the start up and loading on the computer hugely.

The SSD was a lot smaller than the original HDD but has same connection so could still install securly. Brought this on a sale PB Tech were having to replace an old hard drive in a computer.

Put it in the laptop and away it goes. No drama. Expanded my 250GB factory laptop and fighting for space every day to no hassles plenty of disk space. Four stars just because I have had it only for a short time and under observation. Cheers PB Tech. Put it in the laptop and away it goes. No drama.

Works like a charm. Works like a charm.

For the cost this is a good buy for the entry level user moving from spinning disks, or as a mainstream desktop ssd again a good buy.

I took the speed (560mbs) at face value and should have done more research - where performance is important you should consider Samsung PM883 which is amazing. https://www.pbtech.co.nz/product/HDDSAM883109/Samsung-PM883-Series-960GB-25in-V4-TLC-V-NAND-Ente

The samsung Costs $450 vs the $175 for the HP - but does 550(ish)mbs all day long in all use cases - this HP drive is not great a random of deep workloads, and runs 10 degrees hotter .

So if the above does not concern - I give this HP 5 stars for the...view more For the cost this is a good buy for the entry level user moving from spinning disks, or as a mainstream desktop ssd again a good buy.

Right price for me.
Cloned existing HDD swapped out and was done. Gave my laptop a new lease of life, from slow restarts and slow file access - to now, real fast startup/restarts and slick access to every thing. Right price for me.

Good performance, I got really good speeds once from this drive. Good performance, I got really good speeds once from this drive.

My PC came with a 256mb ssd which was used for the OS. Windows 10 programs filled that up quickly and if you use a different drive for programs then it messes with win10 upgrades.

Cloned the 256 os drive to this and all worked great :) Got the fast loading times and lots of space for programs

This SSD is a very good product when considering the specs and price. I put a 1TB and a 500GB S700 into older HP Probook and EliteBooks over the last 12 months. It makes a huge difference to speed but the installation was painless. Connected the S700 to a USB/SATA I/F, cloned the old HDD to the S700 with Clonezilla, installed the S700 in the laptop and away it went. Just had to change the BIOS to Legacy Boot. Easily recommend the HP S700 as an excellent product. This SSD is a very good product when considering the specs and price.

I have previously reviewed this SSD but can't edit my review so I'm posting a new one.
This is an SSD. It works fine. However, it constantly runs at 54 degrees which causes the HDD fan in my iMac to run loud enough to be audible and annoying. Other SSDs don't do this. To prove the point that it wasn't an issue with this iMac when I replaced this HP 500GB SSD with a Samsung 1TB SSD the Samsung runs at 42 degrees meaning the fan is much less audible. I even tried using a 2.5" to 3.5" adapter that had much more ventilation but it made no difference. I have previously reviewed this SSD but can't edit my review so I'm posting a new one.
