• Reviews around star (2.85 of 5)

    (OLD MODEL) Crucial M500 480GB SATA 2.5” 7mm (with 9.5mm adapter) Internal Solid State Drive - CT480M500SSD1

    • Only subtracting one star because although Crucial says it is compatible with the Dell Inspiron 11 3147, in reality it is NOT
    • But it's definitely worth losing some stars for representing something as guaranteed compatible when it's not (crucial has acknowledged elsewhere that there is a compatibility problem
    • I knocked out a review star because I couldn't seem to acquire the ease of installation some of the YouTube reviewers showed
    • they are a little on the pricy side, but once the 500`s get cheaper
    • I've written zero (0)s to the drive and will try to reinstall Mac OS X hopefully I can revive this SSD
    • ’s not as hot as before
    • I purchased this SSD years ago back when it was still new on the market, but this is a warning to any one: my drive came with 9 bad SSD blocks out of the box (even though the drive still works fine as of this review).More over there are much better faster SSDs available (Samsung 850 or 860 EVO or Crucial MX500), so buy something else
    • Works as expected, very fast and easy to use.
    • The laptop runs just hot as
