Have this SSD my 2011er HP G62 upgraded. I could make the conversion / installation without special knowledge. In my case, it took also no installation kit or something. Have then simply filled with new Win 7 and the Crucial has been recognized properly right away. Did not make a benchmark that does not interest me. The increase in speed is so palpable and so it went to me. Especially with batch tasks in Lightroom or so the SSD now makes her a lot. I could buy for under 100EUR, what an acute P / L ratio is the board here.
