All my PCs were either from before SSDs existed or were from when they were still quite expensive and generally came in smaller capacities (my current rig is around 6 or so years old).As I cannot afford to upgrade right now or ideally build my own, I decided to make some tweaks to my existing rig as it is still fairly decent for its age. I upgraded ram a couple of years ago (2x16gb sticks) and last week upgraded from the stock cooler to a much beefier Be Quiet cooler as the CPU was really getting hot under heavy load.While I was at it I thought it was time to finally go over to an SSD seeing as they now have much better capacity for not a lot of money.I decided to go for Crucial as I have always had good experience with them. My PC ram is Crucial and so is the M.2 SSD in my PS5. I felt this had the specs that suited me and as I say, price wise, it was pretty damn cheap. Sadly due to my board being slightly older and being a micro ATX I don't have an M.2 slot, so SATA was the only way to go.I did make one error though as I assumed it would come with a SATA cable, but of course we know what you do if you "assume" anything. It was a simple enough solution, order a cable from Amazon and just fit the drive a day later than planned (I only mention this as I am sure there are others as naive as me who will get caught out too).It was very simple to fit as well. Plugged the SATA cable into the drive and the motherboard and found a spare power plug coming from the power supply that fitted as well and then it was time to test things out.Booted the PC up and while it did take a while to boot (remember this is still booting to my old drive) which is quite normal when installing new parts, but booted as normal. I then opened Acronis True Image (go to the website on the SSD instructions and download the file) and followed the onscreen prompts to clone my old HDD to my new SSD. I had deleted all my music from the HDD before starting this as it took up over 400gb and I felt that would just slow the cloning process down. Even with another 400+ storage still on the drive, it only took about 2 hours to do a full copy.After it was finished I rebooted the PC, went into bios and assigned the SSD as my new boot drive.The PC then booted to Windows so much faster than it normally does and programs loads almost instantly rather than the delayed response of yore.Even web browsers and internet tabs load faster.I also noticed that after the PC logs into Windows I can access programs straight away rather than waiting for Windows to do all its stuff before being allowed to access anything.Seriously loving this piece of kit. The way it works is perfect for me, and is going to make using my PC so much of a better experience than it has been. Factor in the easy installation and the free no issues cloning software, and I think I got an absolute bargain at less than Β£40.Oh, and I kept the old HDD in the rig but formatted it to use just as storage for my music which I have already reinstalled.Only one program had an issue, with my copy of Photoshop saying the licence was not on it, but that was easily rectifiable, and every other program seems to have carried the licences over. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect storage upgrade for my CCTV unit *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 19 December 2025* Excellent SSD, perfect for CCTV use.

Great upgrade if you need dependable storage for security recordings.Very satisfied with the purchase and would definitely recommend. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good kit *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 25 July 2026* Installation in fanless PC completed , a bit harrowing and caused the PC to overheat. Had to configure memory for less throttling and added external fan to aid with cooling. Drive works fine and has achieved my objectives. ## Frequently Bought Together - Crucial BX500 SATA SSD 1TB, Internal SSD 2.5", Up to 540MB/s, Compatible with Notebooks and Desktop PCs, 3D NAND, Dynamic Write Acceleration, Internal SSD Hard Drive - CT1000BX500SSD101 - Crucial BX500 1TB 3D NAND SATA 2.5-Inch Internal SSD, up to 540MB/s - CT1000BX500SSD1, Solid State Drive - BENFEI SATA Cable III, 3 Pack SATA Cable III 6Gbps Straight HDD SDD Data Cable with Locking Latch 18 Inch Compatible for SATA HDD, SSD, CD Driver, CD Writer - Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/570899723-bx500-sata-ssd-1tb-2-5-up-to-540mb-s](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/570899723-bx500-sata-ssd-1tb-2-5-up-to-540mb-s) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-20*
