Aside from the higher cost per gb the worst thing about the average SSD is the typically small size. Thi PNY is moderately priced and as or more spacious than the standard drives it replaces. It's the perfect upgrade for an aging laptop.

USB3 SSD drive are fast but external USB drives tend to be heavy and expensive. This Sandisk is a compromise. Light weight and less expensive than a 2.5" form factor but a smidge slower than the bigger drives.

This collection includes all 8 films from the Harry Potter saga. Based on the novels of J.K. Rowling, the films follow Harry (Daniel Radcliff) as he learns about his magical heritage, and the pivotal role he plays within the wizard community. Along the way, he forms indelible bonds with classmates Ron Weasely (Rupert Grint) and Hermione Granger (Emma Watson), who help him as he tries to defeat the evil wizard Voldemort (Ralph Fiennes).

Wonderful books, great movies.

The Harry Potter series of books entertained millions and guaranteed the popularity of the movies. The movies kept true enough to the books to make fans happy and created new followers. The picture quality of the Blu-ray Discs is excellent. On a good TV, the Blurays are worth the extra $5~10.

Hi Rez, low contrast

Verified Purchase:Yes
The 4K resolution is nice, but the dynamic range is limited. Contrast and saturation suffer and as a TN LCD (as opposed to an IPS) the image quality when viewed off center. Possibly a good cheap gaming 4K.

Upgrading to an SSD is a no brained.
on December 16, 2016
Posted by: Tallman610

Verified Purchase:Yes
If your laptop has a standard spinning hard drive, replace it with an SSD and it like getting a new computer. The PNY drives come with a code to download the needed cloning software and if your old drive was still running and not corrupted it is usually simple to do if you have some jewelers screwdrivers.

This has a too stiff coiled cord so it is effectively an 18" cord.

Faster than a failing laptop HD, but slow.
on October 29, 2016
Posted by: Tallman610
from NH
Verified Purchase:Yes
The hard drives used in most laptops are typically 4200rpm to 5400rpm. The higher the speed, the faster the computer can read the data. A failing drive might have an effective speed of half or slower. A failed drive, of course, has a speed of 0. This drive is the cheapest replacement for an older laptop. If your laptop is 3 years old or less, look for a 7200rpm drive or SSD to actually improve the performance from stock. The SSD especially will make it better than new. But for an older machine that doesn't need to be super speedy, it fills the bill. If you are replacing a dead hard drive, make sure you have all your install/restore discs or you got nuthin.

Very disappointing.
on October 29, 2016
Posted by: Tallman610
from NH
Verified Purchase:Yes
My dental hygienist recommended this to aid in cleaning under the gums. I had used one years ago to blast food particles from between teeth but this seems to be much clumsier to use than I remember.
1. The tube/hose is more tightly wound which means you need to clear off the area around it completely.
2. I had forgotten that the water that it shoots has to go somewhere - hang your head at a 90 degree angle over the sink or swallow
3. If the wand nozzle is below the water level of the reservoir it dribbles, even when off
4. It must have a steep learning curve as I had trouble pointing it towards trouble spots
I imagine that someone with braces would enjoy the greatest benefits from it, but flossing and good brushing are more efficient for me.

Store your files safely on this 240GB PNY solid-state drive. It achieves write speeds of 500MB/sec. and read speeds of 535MB/sec., providing transfer rates faster than traditional hard drives. The lack of moving parts on this PNY solid-state drive reduces its chance of failure.
 

Is this SSD compatible with Dell-Inspiron 15.6" Laptop - Intel Core i3 ? 6GB Memory -1TB Hard Drive Model: I3567-3629BLK-PUS https://www.bestbuy.com/site/dell-inspiron-15-6-laptop-intel-core-i3-6gb-memory-1tb-hard-drive-black/5835851.p?skuId=5835851

Compatible with every laptop in the last 10 years that uses a 2.5” SATA drive. They come with a code for cloning software but you will want an SATA - USB adapter or drive dock or external USB enclosure.

Can this unit be turned on its side without damaging the battery and used with outlets facing outward instead of upward?

It is a sealed battery and is unlikely to leak. Scanning the set up guide there is no mention of how it must be positioned.

I asked 2 days ago about battery backup for my takagi ondemand propane waterheater with electronic ignition and got no answer from you. Help!

Without knowing how much power it draws one cannot say. Somewhere on the unit or in the documentation you should be able to find that info.

Store your special photos, favorite tunes and important documents on this 500GB internal hard drive that features NCQ technology for increased performance.
 

is this compatible with Lenovo ThinkPad T430

Not positive. The 430 has the same SATA connector but some Lenovos require the thinner 7mm size. A generic drive is usually 9mm thick. A 7mm drive will work to replace a 9mm drive, but not vice versa. I tossed out the box so I am not sure of the specs. Check the Seagate website. The swap is actually pretty easy.

Will this work on a 17 inch MacBook pro

Yes, but spring for an SSD or SSD/HD hybrid or 7200rpm drive as the Mac will fee like a new one.
