Aireye 256GB MLC SATA III 2.5-Inch 6.0Gb/s Solid State Drive (SSD) with DRAM Cache-S2

So I just got Aireye 240gig SATAIII SSD for my Lenovo Laptop. I decided to purchased this solely off the reviews that I read threw amazon. That being said I am a name brand guy when it comes to some tech and decided to give the Aireye a try.I got this to upgrade for My Lenovo G70-80 17.3” I3 Laptop with 16gigs DDR3, All I can say is DANG!! This is was super easy to install and setup! My laptop literally boots to my windows 10 Login screen is 5.61 seconds! This is faster than my smaller HP with a Samsung Evo SSD.Please Note that every system is a bit Different and may have faster or slower boot times!For anyone that is looking for a nice little upgrade for you laptop and or Desktop I would Highly Recommend This Drive! I will recommend this to not only my friends and Family, Will Also Recommend To all my Clients that I do computer repair and upgrades for!AIREYE Thanks for an Awesome SSD[...]Video is a bit light will remake and repost hopefully soon!

Installed Ubuntu 16.04 on this. Immediatly recognised and installed correctly. No issues so far. Has been faster than i hoped for! Would definitely buy againUpdate: I have now had this drive in service for about 6 months. I am constantly building, cloning and running Virtual Machines. This SSD makes this so much nicer than with a standard HDD. On the same computer I would saturate my disk I/O with just 1 or 2 VM's, now I have had about 10 running at a time with no noticeable performance impact (mostly low load servers). I love this drive so much I bought another for my server and my laptop! No issues with any of them!!!! Cannot recommend highly enough!

Great price for this drive, and great performance for the past two weeks after installation.I used free AEOMEI Backupper software, and a StarTech USB 3.0 to 2.5" SATA cable, to clone the hard drive to this SSD; then installed it in the desktop box with a KingWin 2.5 to 3.5" metal bracket. The first bootup wasn't overly fast, but the second and all subsequent bootups have been less than 20 seconds each. Shutdowns - which used to take several minutes - are now about 10-15 seconds. Malwarebytes Anti-Malware scans now run about 10 minutes, instead of an hour.

Such a good price and read/write speed that I bought two of these. Haven't looked back since.Absolutely no issues to date ~6 months. I haven't benchmarked these against any other SSD but why would I need to? Replacing a 7200rpm spin disk with any sata III SSD was/would be a vast improvement. I can't see performance being significantly better with a different SSD unless it was needed for a business setting (in which case something like Intel or Samsung may be more appropriate due to proven reliability).Would strongly suggest.

works as expected, no problems with it.The documentation that comes with it refers only to Windows Vista, 7, and 8. This clue leads me to believe that this "Aireye" brand is merely a white-label (anonymous) repackaging of some discontinued name-brand SSD model for which there was an unsold overstock. For whatever reason these drives are being sold at such nice rates, it does the job nicely.

So far, so good. Been running this as the main drive on the computer for several weeks now, loaded up Windows 10 and it works great. The ONLY issue is it randomly shut off 2 different times early on, but that's it. Since then it's been flawless... and fast! Boot time is well under 30 seconds.

This is the second Aireye drive that I buy, and I am happy with the performance. The other drive has been running for 5 months as the primary drive on my desktop. Everything loads a lot faster and boot time is a flash. Size was fine and easy to install.

I mounted the drive in both of my W10 computers, an HP and a Lenovo, and it didn't show up in This PC for either one. I've had this problem with other ssd's, and have returned them with the explanation that they were incompatible. This time I decided to search for a solution. I found several forums, with MANY people who had the same problem, and lots of recommended fixes, none of which worked for me. But I found a solution of my own. 1. Download a free partition software, such as Aomei or Easeus. You could also try Macrium Reflect, but I think they are only including backup software in their home version now. 2. When you open the app, it will show the drive in their menu, as an unallocated drive. If a format option is in the menu, you could do that now. Whether or not you format, create a partition in the drive. It will now appear in This PC. 3. From This PC, you could format the drive, if you haven't already done so. 4. If the formatting wipes the partition, and the drive disappears, use the partition software to partition it again. You should be set to go.The Aireye is performing nicely as the primary drive in my Lenovo PC. This is after about two weeks of use-I'll update if there is a change.
