I upgraded my PC with this SanDisk Ultra 3D NAND SSD and it’s been fantastic. Installation was easy, it’s super fast, and the extra storage is great for all my files and programs. Runs completely silent and has been very reliable with no issues so far. Got it on sale, which made it an even better deal. Definitely a solid choice for anyone looking to upgrade their internal storage.

As with most any current generation Sata SSD, this drive is very fast and runs very cool, even inside of my mini-pc and moving files to & from my main m.2 drive. Fortunately I bought it with a coupon & before memory & storage prices skyrocketed

DO NOT BUY THESE DRIVES! UPDATE: 11.21.23 - I use these drives for primary my primary drive, and I clone to them as backup. i JUST HAD A CLONE GO BAD - low level I/O Error in Read Write with ONE HOUR UPTIME! >>>ONE HOUR<<< I think this whole batch of SanDisk 1TB drives is absolutely RUBBISH. I am replacing now with Crucial 1TB SSDs. This is intolerable, and since my drives are filled with sensitive data, I cannot send them away for replacement, etc. Wow, I am shocked and upset. I have had good luck with Sandisk SSD drives in the past. I installed this drive in an Acer 576g laptop. It was running perfectly fine until yesterday. Then, in the middle of the day, it being on and at idle, I come back to the machine and nothing - DRIVE NOT DETECTED, screen frozen. On reboot... no boot medium. I am a tech with +35 years experience with computers and BUILDING THEM FROM SCRATCH. I tried every trick in the book to get the SSD going (power only method, etc.) Nothing worked. Drive makes a little noise when connected to power, but that is it. ZERO WARNING BEFORE FAILURE. BOOM - No drive. Shocked this would happen with a drive just 4 months old. This has compromised my faith in SSDs and Sandisk in particular. I have some mechanical drives that date back from 1990, they still boot righ up like a charm. This drive failure caused me to have to completely reinstall Linux Mint 21.2 and restore back from my last save... which was UNFORTUNATELY several months ago! UGH! So, I lost a lot of important stuff, and I do not at all trust sending any drive with very sensitive information on it out for repair. No thanks. There should be a free tool we can run at home for every drive, not go to some small repair shop, or ship it away and get charged $500/1000 to get the data off, when all they are doing is using PC3000 to grab it in 10 minutes. SANDISK/WD Warranty and Customer service is pathetic. Terrible site. So upset and tired. I really love the performance of these drives but do yourself a favor, and clone these drives often to create a backup. I am using Parted Magic to do that... Works very well. I am wondering if the problem with these drives is their large size... Sandisk never had such an issue with smaller drives in the past.
