Pros
My laptop (3 years old Pentium 2 core, 4GB RAM, 1 TB HDD Acer aspire es1-571-p1vn) was disappointingly slow from day one. As it got older and more programs and updates installed it got painfully slow. Although I use an android tablet for most things nowadays, I still need a windows platform PC laptop for some things like editing my website. After reading reviews about the difference increasing memory and changing HDD storage to SSD can make i decided to do the same. So glad I did, the difference is like night and day. I first just upgraded the RAM from 4GB to 16GB which although improved the speed and range of usable programs it still had painfully slow start-up times and usability. The RAM installation was a bit of a pain having to strip down the laptop and remove the motherboard to insert the memory boards to the underside. The SSD drive installation however was quite easy. After cloning the HDD drive to the new SSD all that was needed was to remove all the screws on the base of the laptop, lift the keyboard sufficiently and slightly move to the side without needing to remove its cables and wedge up with a none conductive pack. Then just remove the retaining screw on the bracket on the back end of the drive. Slide the drive away from the motherboard to unplug it, easy. Swap the securing bracket from old drive to the new, slide in new drive and screw in the retaining screw to bracket. Clip the keyboard back on, shut laptop and put the screws back in the bass of laptop and your done. When booting you are prompted to select the new drive as boot drive and that's the installation done. The cloning software downloaded free from samsung.com was easy to use and it took a couple of hours to copy 250GB from my old HDD to the new SSD using usb3. Extremely pleased with better than new laptop. Cheap laptop now performs like a high end. Bootup, logged in and start using in about 25 seconds now as apposed to 9 minutes. Much quieter with no HDD as well. I should think battery will last longer too but wrote this review straight away as so impressed with SSD. In fact I think I will be using the laptop more often now as a pleasure to use. Note. If you are also upgrading RAM which is a more time consuming process you may wish to consider if the bios battery will need replacing soon as that also is on the underside of the motherboard.
Cons
Deeply disappointed with this product; it comes as an unformated-unallocated disk of an 8TB initial capacity to discover it can only become a disk of a true useable capacity only 2TB as the rest 6TB remain as hidden partition unable to be deleted or utilized or reformated or processed either by Windows or other paid full version software I used, several computers tried also. Too expensive for what is trully offered, unworthy of a single penny, at least of what I received.
