Works great, reliable
It seems hard to find this specific size of small SATA SSD - happy to find this at a reasonable price and it has worked perfectly, in use for over 6 months.

Works As Expected
New in box. System picked it up right away. Was able to write with pretty decent speeds. Arrived faster than I expected.

Works great!
Used as a replacement mSATA drive that went bad in my Dell S6010-ON switch. Was able to reload OS10 on it and the switch boots perfect!

This is a mSATA SSD, not a PCI-E SSD.I never was able to install this SSD. See reasonIt is 50 mm long so make sure your motherboard has enough clearance.Some motherboards have a 1/2 size PCI-E foot print which is only 27mm long.Measure your motherboard before ordering -- make sure the motherboard is mSATA compatible.

does the job, a bit slow on writes
Decent, worked without any problems in a Protectli mini PC appliance. This particular 128GB model is a useful size, large enough for limited storage, or a non-cramped system drive.In straight-line, unbuffered testing (1MB blocks) I found it was much slower on write (128 MiB/s) than read (487 MiB/s).As is typical for inexpensive flash-based storage, the numbers will likely wander with age ("lower" for writes), and be faster when managed with the buffering provided by an operating system. I consider Transcend a trusted name for consumer flash products, I've used a number of their SD, CF, and thumb drives.mSATA itself is a bit of an oddity, a stepping stone between "regular" SATA SSD and m.2 designs. It's essentially SATA SSD without a case or cable connectors. That makes it a little cheaper and a lot smaller than SATA SSD, but not any faster. But its small format apparently caught on for some embedded applications like my miniPC.Recommended if you need mSATA.

This SSD was a good price, and it works great!
My 12 yo Dell XPS 13's 128GB hard drive failed, and I was able to DIY replace it with a 256GB drive. Diagnostics quickly recognized the new SSD. A Windows 10 installation later, and I was back up and running as good as new. I've been around tech support for my work and have built desktops before, but this is my first laptop repair. It wasn't that difficult. With YouTube, I think many people could do it. Honestly, reinstalling Windows was the most challenging part of this DIY.

Not recommended
When combined with an msata to ide adapter, it was not bootable on Amiga or PC, though it was recognized by the PC.
