Crucial MX500 could be a good choice for you.
If you're not into spending a lot yet still want reliable performance when working with large files you should definitely consider the MX500 2TB (or 1TB) model.
Look at the test results at the link below. Scroll down and see both of these charts...
The most important consideration is the combined cost of the phone and the calling plan. Many of us don't need the features or capabilities of high-end phones, nor do we wish to pay high prices for a new phone. The same may be said for a calling plan. Let's face it, a new budget price phone has...
We added a Bluetooth adapter to our 22 year-old car which has only an FM/AM radio. Basically, it's a little gadget that you plug into the cigarette lighter socket. When the ignition is on (or on the Accessory position) the gadget connects to my phone via Bluetooth. Then, it broadcasts a...

For the millions of us who want good call quality and reasonable battery life, many different smartphones are good enough. Other than certain very limited models, they all take pretty good snapshots, video calls, light games, etc. So, it comes down to price. My most...
Why should i even bother buying a good graphics card when a new upcoming XBox or Playstation costs the same or less?
Let's say my existing rig has a good enough cpu, RAM, power supply, and airflow to support an upgrade of the graphics card. If i want a new card good enough to last a few years...
Totally agree. We had a Seagate Central drive, basically a standard 2GB 3.5-inch model in an external case which connects via ethernet cable to your wi-fi router, thus making it a home network drive also accessible when away from home using a provided app. It failed after 14 months and Seagate...
An M.2 SATA SSD which lays flat near the motherboard surface may run hotter than a 2.5-inch version when writing large sustained amounts of data. Where's that side panel fan when you need it?!?!
Having said that, my Acer laptop has a 500GB WD Blue 3D M.2 SATA drive. When transferring some large...
Kingston V100+ 96GB in June 2011. Still works perfectly.
Intel X25-M 80GB Oct. 2012. It sat in a drawer for a while before first use. Then, motherboard didn't recognize it. RMA'd to Intel and they replaced it with 320 model, also 80GB. Think it's the same SSD except it's SATA III. Worked OK and...
A few years ago I built a Core i5-4590 with 2 x 4GB DDR3-1600 on an ASRock Z97Extreme4 motherboard. When first installed, the memory defaults to 1333MHz. Decided not to enable XMP to boost the RAM up to 1600MHz.
I played 5 or 6 different shooter games and racing simulations for a few months, and...
Considering using free RAMDisk software by DATARAM. I'm slightly confused about some things:
1. Have read in the past that their RAMDisk size is limited to 4GB. On their website, however, it says the free version is limited to 1GB. Did they pare it down or was I thinking of a different brand of...
I don't think you understand the question. I read the reviews before ever posing the question. The reviews do not discuss the possibly of using additional unallocated space for caching for the purpose of maintaining Write speed.
As the drive space fills up, the amount of space used for...
OK, let me use different words here. I'm asking about Intel's Intelligent Dynamic SLC-Caching, which uses a pool of fast SLC flash to boost performance for incoming write data. The question is whether or not this caching method will include/use/employ/access unallocated capacity in the Dynamic...
