• Reviews around ssd (3.22 of 5)

    Transcend 256GB SATA III 6Gb/s MTS400 42 mm M.2 SSD Solid State Drive (TS256GMTS400)

    • This is by far the worst SSD I have ever used and it is deplorable that the company hasn't acknowledged and fixed the faulty firmware.
    • This SSD is amazing
    • SSD has been working very well after a few months of use
    • However, understanding the error codes meant I knew right away the issue was on my end, not the SSD
    • Its a little expensive for a 512GB ssd, but it is the only one available in the 42mm form factor
    • Drive would hang consistently as a second SSD in a Lenovo Yoga 12.
    • I really appreciate such a small ssd with such a large capacity.
    • I am using Linux kernel 3.13.0-37 AMD64 which supports this Transcend SSD immediately
    • CONTROL_INTEL_SATA_POWER=0For Chrome OS, Leo on superuser.com posted a detailed how-to disable ALPM, see http://superuser.com/questions/887916/transcend-mts400-ssd-crashes-my-acer-c720-chromebook-how-to-disable-sata-powerEdit: I should add that I didn't tried this as I'm running Linux
    • Transcend features NCQ, TRIM, and power loss protection which I find to be critical features for modern SSD products
    • A very good SSD, should come with a migration utility to allow move of operating system from spinning drive over to the SSD.
    • used this ssd to replace original ssd in a toshiba chromebook 2 2015, works great.
    • Before I installed this particular SSD, I read all the information about my computer to find out which SSD would be best for me
    • Being able to keep my old HD and at the same time to have the SSD is great
    • The master boot record will be intact, with the additional bonus that your new M.2 SSD will also be accessible as a data drive in your old OS
    • The Acer Chromebook 15 is very touchy with its 16GB SSD, and mine crapped out after less than a month of use
    • This is not the fastest ssd, specially for writing, but very good for its price
    • Very good SSD
    • I wanted the cheapest possible SSD for my ancient Dell Precision 380 tower computer.
    • Writing times is not as fast (around 150 mb/s) , but once you install your apps and OS you will be most of the time reading and not writing onto it.
