Pros & Cons
Pros
The drive is much faster than the oem version that it replaced. It is more than acceptably fast, and i haven't noticed any issues whilst gaming. But it seems odd that it would come with 4 partitions. The 3. Hdd drive has a maximum speed of 1,000 gb.

Competitiveness
I've used lots of other ssd's from western digital, samsung, intel, mushkin, kingdian, ocz and others, and this drive seems as ... Read More
I bought 2 different brands ssd and this is the only one that never failed or given me any issues whatsoever.
The speeds are just as advertised, aside from the write speed when writing large transfers, nearly as fast as superior competing products.
The overall performance of the laptops was a 100% better for both.

Fusion 360 only allows you to install on c drive and my smaller 110 drive would get pretty full from use
