Let me start by pointing out the obvious, which is that pretty much any SSD is going to provide a huge performance improvement over a conventional hard drive. This one is no exception. If you're into gaming or have other ultra-high performance computing needs, you've probably researched which SSDs are the very fastest down to the last fraction of a second in benchmark tests. I don't get into that level of performance. All I can offer is that like any SSD, this one will make an old computer feel like a new one, and a new one feel like a much more expensive one.I've only installed one of this particular make and model SSD so far, so I can't comment on how reliable it is compared to others. Again, SSDs as a class tend to be very reliable, far more so than conventional hard drives. I've had a couple SSDs fail, but both were from other brands, and the only pattern shown by two failures out of the dozens of SSD upgrades I've done indicates what I just said, which is that SSDs are very reliable.The only real variable is the "Easy to install" rating. I'm not sure why Amazon put it here, because ease of installation isn't really a feature of a SSD. This type of SSD is a drop-in replacement for a conventional laptop hard drive. However, there are steps you must follow to do this replacement. First, you must know how to make a full image backup of your hard drive, if your intention is to simply upgrade your drive; otherwise, you must know how to do a fresh operating system installation on a new drive and, presumably, copy your data over. I'm not going to get into those procedures here, or the tools and software needed to do it, as this is a review, not a tutorial. Second, if you're upgrading a desktop computer's hard drive, you probably need a suitable adapter to fit a 2.5" drive into a 3.5" drive holder. Finally, some computer manufacturers make it easy to access and replace the hard drive, while others make it quite difficult. In the easiest cases, the drive simply slides out of a door on the side of the computer, allowing you to replace the drive wit no disassembly. On the complicated end, I've worked on some computers where you have to disassemble most of the machine, take out the system board and flip it over in order to replace the hard drive. And that's just the hardware -- I had one situation in which a laptop's storage driver didn't agree with the SSD, and I had to find a different storage driver to make it work properly. So, I gave 3 stars for "Easy to install", but it's necessary to acknowledge that I would give this same rating to any SSD, regardless of make and model, and that most of that is beyond the SSD manufacturer's control.

The Patriot Memory Burst SSD 240GB SSD is a good low budget level non-primary OS storage for around $31 USD. The installation for SSDs are simple, when you plug it in make sure you utilize Window's Disk Management feature so that you can assign a drive letter to make it visible on your PC. I am using this as a portable SSD to transfer and store files between systems.As for the negatives for the Patriot Memory Burst, the two primary ones that stand out:1) The official software (titled SATA tool box or Phison Tool Box) for firmware upgrades, SSD summary, S.M.A.R.T., optimization, and secure erase DOES NOT even detect the SSD. I tried different configurations and checks to try and get it detected. It is not worth the effort, the software is just pure garbage (trust me on this). So you cannot do any of those if you decide to purchase.2) The transfer speeds are questionable. I am running this on a USB 3.1 port and the highest I reached was an average write speed of 70-80 MB/s (I have attached a screenshot of write speed for 142 GB worth of files for reference). It did reach 200 MB/s but just for a very short 'burst'. It does not maintain that speed for longer than 30 seconds after initial write. My other SSD brands of the same configuration maintain 300-400+ MB/s throughout until completion.Overall, the value of the SSD offsets the negatives for me personally since I am just using this as a portable USB SSD. I wouldn't recommend using this as a primary SSD on your PC setup. $31 for 240 GB SSD is hard to beat at this time.

I initially got this for gaming, to start up and play certain games faster, but I recently heard you can clone or migrate your operating system to another disk and have it work perfectly, so that's what I did for this. My hard drive takes roughly 5 minutes to load everything up and boot, if not longer, meanwhile the SSD has everything up in less than ten seconds, and my games have already seen a noticeable boost in loading times and stability in some areas (playing a game modded on my hard drive would result in some jitters or freezes as it loaded in the custom data, but with this SSD these aren't noticeable or just simply don't exist). However, some reviews I've seen elsewhere have said that this SSD can die after some months, so I decided to clone my operating system to the SSD rather than migrate it or do any fresh installs.My only complaint is installing this in my desktop turned out to be kind of annoying. SSDs use the same exact cables as a hard drive, which is convenient, but I couldn't actually get it mounted in my hard drive cage because it was so thin (possibly because it's designed for laptops) so I had to just connect the cables and let it sit in there at an angle. As far as I'm aware SSDs are similar to SD cards in the way they store data, rather than a hard drive's moving parts writing data to a disk, so I figured that wouldn't be a problem and it hasn't been so far. This is the only reason I'm knocking off a star, having at least a plastic little mounting case included for this would have been perfect because I felt terrible leaving the SSD in there how I did. Other than that, this is a great product, and I will update this review accordingly if anything unseemly happens.

É incrível perceber a diferença de um SSD para um HDD convencional. Acredito ser mais recomendado fazer esse investimento antes de memória ram processador para o uso geral. O sistema e programas carregam muito mais rápido e pode ajudar em alguns jogos (uso bluestacks emulando android). É pouco tempo pra dizer (menos de um mês) mas por hora tem me atendido muito bem, espero que dure!

Fácil instalação

Ok

Ich war mit der SSD in Sachen Geschwindigkeit bis vor ein paar Tagen recht zufrieden. Jetzt kommt es immer öfter vor, dass Lese- und Schreibzugriffe bei größeren Dateien abbrechen. Ganz egal, ob ich sie intern an SATA oder extern an USB 3.0 betreibe. Ich konnte sie noch an einem USB-2-Anschluss betreiben, um Daten davon zu sichern. Immerhin kündigt sie ihr Ableben an. Ganz im Gegensatz zu einer ca. gleich preiswerten oder teuren SSD der Marke INTENSO., welche sich von einem Moment auf den anderen verabschiedete. Und das nach einer kürzeren Zeitspanne. Von daher kann ich mit dem Preis-Leistungsverhältnis dieser Platte doch einigermaßen glücklich sein.
