    Running Unraid with 1TB version of this as cache drive... after six months it has started dropping off the system, have to dismantle and unplug/replug to get it to be recognised again! Sent it back today and ordered a Samsung EVO 870 to replace it!

    They're absolutely fine drives if you're not using for Unraid, though. Cracking buy to upgrade an aging laptop. (edited)

    I have 3 of these MX500's on upgraded Fujitsu AH532 laptops that now fly, highly recommended. PS the free clone software link is virtually fool proof (well even I managed it!)

    There's a brand that sounds like 'thick or what?' ...so funny

    Absolute bargain.

    There's an unexceptional 1tb in the sales for £29.99 by a company called "Bliksem".

    I've tried some of these random company drives before and they seem to last just fine. I have yet to have one of these cheap-o drives fail. Oldest one is a little over 3 years old and still running in a daily machine.

    I put one in a 7 year old acer laptop along with ram upgrade, now like a new machine. I'll second the cloning software makes it a doddle.

    MX500's have been, and still are my go-to SATA SSD's. Extremely reliable and pretty good performers.
    It's a decent price for this one. Obviously there are cheaper drives out there but they are more than likely DRAM-less. (edited)
