Review Summary

2014-01-20T19:00:00

Rated 4 out of 5

Reliable and Fast

This is the 3rd one of these I've owned. I have one at work and have had it for about 2 years now. I have one in my laptop at home and this one is going in the wife's machine. I continue to buy the same brand and model because this drive has been very reliable and I worry about the hit and miss nature of the stability of SSDs. Noone likes to have to restore and rebuild from a backup. 4 stars instead of 5 because the size is a bit small.
