PNY CS900 500GB 2.5" SATA III Internal SSD

I have been using this SSD for about 2 years as regular storage for my PC, and it has been working great. The speed is very good, and my computer feels much faster compared to my old drive. It was also very easy to install, even for someone with basic PC building experience. The quality has been excellent, and I have not had any problems with it so far. I also like that it is affordable for the amount of storage you get. It has been reliable for everyday use, including storing programs, games, and files. I would definitely recommend this SSD to anyone looking for a good and budget-friendly upgrade.

Reliable, Affordable Upgrade for Everyday Storage Needs This PNY CS900 2TB SSD turned out to be a straightforward and satisfying upgrade. Installation was quick—just a standard 2.5" SATA connection—and the drive was recognized immediately without any hassle. For general use, it’s a night-and-day improvement compared to an old spinning hard drive. Boot times are nearly instant, programs open faster, and overall system responsiveness feels much snappier. The 2TB capacity is a sweet spot for those who want a roomy but reasonably priced drive. It’s plenty for storing a mix of games, videos, photos, and work files without worrying about space. Performance is solid and consistent; while it doesn’t reach the speeds of NVMe drives, for most desktops and laptops that still rely on SATA, this is more than enough. I also noticed that it runs cool and quiet, with no issues under heavy file transfers. One thing to keep in mind is that this is more of a budget SSD—so while reliability has been great so far, it doesn’t come with some of the advanced endurance ratings or extra-long warranties you’ll see in higher-end models. That said, for typical consumer workloads, it’s more than adequate. Bottom line: A dependable and affordable way to breathe new life into an older machine or expand storage on a newer one. It delivers fast, reliable performance without breaking the bank.

This works great for replacing the hard drive on my PS4. It is pretty fast for a budgeted PS4 drive. It is thinner in height compared to most 2.5 disk drives but it will fit in your ps4 without much issues. I has a standard aluminum case and I had no trouble installing it. I did want to see how this would perform on on both Mac and PC so I tried it with that first also was my way to test the speed. The drive was able to work without any issues. It did not require any additional software and it was just a plug in play (minus the initialization. It also fit the sata port pretty well. The only thing I would say if you are installing this in laptops with a holder is that you may need to hold it up slightly as it is thinner than your normal 2.5 disk drive but honestly it would not be too much of a difference in installation. You always need to initalize it even with external. I did want to test the transfer speed using a 3.0 enclosure and the transfer speed is not too bad which is good. There was no extreme heat up to an alarming. I did a memory verification just to be safe and the storage memory is correct so you can be sure your data is safe. The speed works pretty well for my ps4. The games load faster and the PS4 does not lag during intense cut scenes which is what I wanted. I test it against some other 2.5 solid state drives (Samsung and WD) as well as the Seagate Hybrid drive and it was not bad. It is pretty on par with the most brand solid state drives. It is definitely a good drive to use for an upgrade from a disk drive to a higher capacity and faster storage. Unfortunately with so many games being big files 1 TB does fill up pretty quick. I was able to transfer all the data from my old PS4 drive to my new one but it did take time to back up and restore everything. Overall I like this drive. It has been reliable and fast. I have not had any issues with it slowing down or failing.

You can't beat the price for a 500GB SSD from a trusted brand like PNY. I'm using this as a secondary drive to back up my business files and documents. It runs cool, quiet, and much faster than any traditional HDD. Highly recommended if you need cheap, dependable storage.

Finally. This SSD works without issue for the EUFY HOMEBASE 3. It’s seen immediately. And then you just tap format. After 3 -5 minutes it’s done. I tried installing a Crucial SSD that I had from a few years ago. No good. Never was seen by the HB 3. Upon reading online Eufy only supports. 5 v at 1.2 amps. My old ssd was 5v 2.0 amps. No good. This PNY is perfect. As it’s 5 v at 1.0 amps just what I needed. And the price was great. 250 gigs is plenty for 4 cams. Overall I’m happy. Love using Amazon.

The drive itself has been working great so far, and my laptop is running much faster. The USB/SATA cable made it easy to connect to my laptop to clone the original hard drive, and provided high transfer speeds. However, the Acronis software was useless. It got hung up repeatedly when scanning for the source drive to clone. I even tried Acronis' option to create a bootable USB drive, but that had the same problem. Eventually I found Rescuezilla, which is free software, and that worked immediately. The free software worked but the software I paid for didn't!

Considering the options, this one works quite well.

10x speed increase from my HDD I used Macrium Reflect (free 30-day trial) to clone my HDD to the new SSD which was easy with the help of a couple YouTube videos. The results are impressive. Timed my old boot process at over 3 minutes until I was able to use my laptop. Even after 3 minutes, it was barely usable, and the disk was running at 100%. After installing the SSD, boot time was 33 seconds, and the laptop was ready to go. It runs better than it did out of the box. Highly recommend this upgrade to any older laptop.
