I purchased this ssd as a system drive for a recent gaming build with a west. digital back-up drive. It was easy to set up and when all was said and done... I was pleasantly surprised. With my particular build, The computer goes from push button to desktop in 12 seconds consistently. Every click of my mouse has instant response. I have built with OCZ Agility 3 and Vertex 3 and was pleased with them in the past, but the quickest boot up I ever had with them was either 15-17 seconds. I only gave 4 stars for value as I believe all ssd's cost to much. I would be happy to see prices on all ssd's drop to at least 50 centsGig. If you are in the market for a good ssd and are willing to pay $1.00gig or so... This is the best one I've ever used, to date.
I bought 2 of the Extreme 120. According to SanDisk website (http://www.sandisk.com/products/ssd/sata/), the write-speed is better than that of Ultra Plus models. I tried to boot 2 Dell Latitude E5430 (1 with Ultra Plus, 1 with Extreme II). Both showed same result in that regard. There may be slight difference, but it's not noticeable. The Extreme II has 8GB less comparing to the Ultra Plus, though. One important difference is in the dimension. The specs posted on SanDisk website showed both models are 7mm thick; where in fact, the Extreme II that I got was actually thicker by possibly 2mm. I'm not exactly sure of the mm difference, but it is for sure thicker. This caused a problem when using the Extreme II in the Latitude E5430. Since it's a bit thicker, it cannot be seated 100% all the way with the SATA connectors. The hard drive bay of the laptop can handle the drive, but there is a little notch at the corner of the bay that prevents the Extreme II to be fully connected to the SATA connectors. For that reason, I had to resort to using the Ultra Plus model instead. Just a note of caution as I was able to put the Extreme II to use in Desktop PCs.Read full review
The SandDisk Solid State Drive has no moving parts so it consistently starts and shuts down quickly and efficiently. However, like any other drive you must provide regular maintenance to ensure peek performance. I believe that as time goes by and computer systems are routinely installed with SSD Drive the cost will come down. Upon searching the internet, you can find good deals. However, these compact and powerful storage system are still expensive. Yet, there ability, reliability and speed well justifies there cost.
Highly recommended upgrade for computers with slow cpu's....don't hesitate about the difference it will make on an older or slower computer....just fantastic

I received this old laptop from a friend and decided to upgrade it to see how far I could take it. The last thing was to install a SSD to see if boot up was faster. So I searched for a SSD and found this one, with free shipping and, to me, a great price. It arrived ahead of time which was nice. fter a few moments of looking it over, I installed it. I removed the SATA drive adapter from eth rotating drive interface and put it on the SATA SSD drive. Then installed it into the laptop. I booted the system and it recognized the drive without issues. I then installed WIN 7.1 Pro and subsequently upgraded to Win 10 Pro (free, of course!). I can now get to a useable screen with this old dog in about 40 seconds and this with only 2 GB of RAM and an AMD SEMPRON cpu. Like I said, old, but now working pretty dang good! I can certainly recommend the SanDisk SSD for projects like this, no issues at all for me! I am certain that anyone who can use a screw driver could also install one of their own in their old dog as well!.Read full review
