Crucial SSDs I have in different sizes in my desktop system (Windows 8.1) and in older laptops (Samsung R40 with Windows 7, Fujitsu Siemens LifeBook E with Ubuntu 14:04) in use. Comparable systems were equipped me with SSDs of other manufacturers. Differences to the faster, but also much more expensive models of established competition from the houses Samsung, OCZ & Co are more than measurable, but barely noticeable. Until now perform all built Crucial SSDs work perfectly and to the full satisfaction. The IT is my company some time ago to all transferred laptops available (Number 50+) equip with Crucial SSDs. Again, there were to date no failures.
o delivery (except for a 9.5-millimeter spacers is practically nil)
Conclusion: Other manufacturers offer a 'measurable' higher performance, software that comes with the package and a partial guarantee of up to 5 years ... for a significantly higher price. Buy recommendation!
