There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
So I watched for pricing (I watched prices in the two months leading up to Christmas and bought last week of November when prices fell for early holiday shoppers I guess). This one seemed to be from a reliable brand and reasonable price.
I bought a drive enclosure too so that I would have a usb interface to connect the drive to the laptop. I used Macrium cloning software which had much more features than I needed, but I would rather have too much than too little control over the process (it also had a reasonable purchase price if I needed to really commit to the paid/pro version, but I managed to complete the process with the free version). Waited until Christmas break when I would have more hours to babysit the cloning process.
Lastly, my advice would be to be patient. I cloned and installed the new ssd. And told my spouse to watch the laptop over the next few weeks (for issues, errors and general reliability). First impressions: immediately the speed for booting and loading was so improved that it was worth the effort. It was like a new laptop. However 4 weeks later, Windows would not load. Blue screen of death. Hard drive was readable so my best guess was that in the cloning process, I did not not choose the right options and failed to copy over some kind of key (authentication?) information. Tried once more to clone, and now it's been running error free for almost 6 months! It should now have at least another 2 years of life before some mechanical failure.

Before the upgrade, her PC would take what felt like an eternity to fully boot up – we're talking a solid six minutes of waiting time. It was frustrating and time-consuming, to say the least. However, after installing the WD Blue SSD, the boot-up time has been drastically reduced to a mere six seconds!
The difference is like night and day. No longer do we have to sit around twiddling our thumbs while waiting for her computer to spring to life. Now, it's ready to go practically before we can even finish counting to ten.
Not only has the SSD dramatically improved boot-up times, but it has also enhanced overall system performance. Programs load in a flash, multitasking is a breeze, and everything just feels smoother and more responsive. It's like giving her PC a new lease on life.
Installation was a breeze as well, thanks to the straightforward instructions and compatibility with her existing hardware. Within minutes, we had the SSD up and running, and we haven't looked back since.
In terms of value for money, the WD Blue SSD is an absolute steal. The performance gains far outweigh the relatively modest investment, making it one of the best upgrades we've ever made for her PC.
If you're looking to breathe new life into an aging computer or simply want to turbocharge your system's performance, I can't recommend the Western Digital 1TB WD Blue SA510 SATA Internal Solid State Drive enough. It's a game-changer in every sense of the word!
