| Nice Packaging, Great SSD. 2.5" Form Factor |
The ADATA SSD is a great choice when it comes to budget friendly SSDs. Even though the cost of SSDs are constantly plummeting, the prices are still generally more expensive than traditional hard drives. This can lead to people purchasing hard drives just because they're cheaper. Although hard drives are not exactly bad, SSDs can easily replace traditional hard drives and make your system run much more faster. When I built my Skylake budget PC, I specifically wanted to include a SSD drive because I wanted to observe the differences between a traditional hard drive that I was used to and a SSD. Now that I've been using the system for almost 2 weeks, I can proudly say that this system runs faster than any of the computers I've had so far. I realized that the CPU, GPU, and even the RAM can't really help but admire at the impressive speeds the SSD can churn out. Adding the SSD was a very good investment and well worth it. The fast boot times and app loading times of the Skylake PC made me use it as a daily driver. Even though I have another DIY PC with a better CPU, GPU, and RAM, I still prefer to use the Skylake PC with an SSD. If you haven't tried out a SSD yet, or you're looking to build a great, speedy budget PC, then I highly recommend you purchase this SSD.
