Patriot Memory P210 SATA 3 128GB SSD 2.5 Inch Internal Solid State Drive Bulk Packaged 10 Pack - P210S128G2510B

I use these as boot disks for hypervisors, installing them into used Dell systems that are then repurposed as proxmox systems. They're fast, reliable, and work with all of the Perc controllers that I have come across so far. They fit into the dell and aftermarket drive trays, show right up and install fast. So far no reliability issues and I have some that are quite old at this point. Can't beat the cost to usefulness ratio!

When my mid-tower PC I used for 3D print jobs failed, I looked at what I actually needed. I found a mini-PC would do the job well and take up a lot less space. I ended up with one that allowed for a SATA SSD as an expansion drive. This drive installed easily and has functioned perfectly in the several months I've used it. Good value for the money.

Its a very solid SSD- it is a DRamless sata SSD- but from my observations it has TLC cache and a solid mid range controller- so overall a very well rounded mid tier SSD for its price (nerdy data below) 78GB .tar SAMBA write/read stress test controls: - this SSD (Ubuntu) - Transfered over SMB - nvme gen 3 SSD (Windows 11) Write: Sustained: 520 Mbps (at least on average) peaks: 600 Mbps lows: 300 Mbps (very rare) Read: Sustained: 690 Mbps (nice) Peaks: 730 Mbps lows: 650 Mbps so overall its performance is very strong- and installation was pretty easy- but this part heavily depends on the box your installing it into

These items were purchased for a HP laptop and they have made a huge difference in performance. The memory replaced a bad one and the SSD replaced a slow mechanical disk. Fro the price, thses are good bargains. They fit perfectly with easy installation. The performance of the laptop is greatly improved. Memory tests assured that the memory was good and the SSD drive just speeds along. (For those of you who wish to upgrade an existing system, the drive doen't come with software to copy the existing drive. You will have to download that from the web.)

This 2.5" SSD works well for a clone of my Dell 5810 PC. I had to have my iMac initialize it so that it would be discoverable on my Dell 5810 PC otherwise I would not work until I did that.

Failed after less than a year. Jumped through the needed hoops for an RMA and they wanted me to pay shipping for a $13 drive. Pass. I'll buy a brand I recognize from now on. Update: They provided a shipping label.

works great easy install

Works fine. The original hard drive on my old desktop computer was getting very slow, probably developing bad sectors. It is a dual boot system. Mostly I use Linux, which has been on a SSD for years but this drive is for Windows 7 (which I think is the last good Windows edition). With this drive, I'm shocked at how fast the OS loads. It is even faster than the Western Digital "Blue" SSD 1TB where Linux and most of my data files reside. I bought this primarily for the price. But the performance is a nice bonus.
