Other than that, the speed of my computer has greatly improved from my broken hard drive, and I have not encountered the issue with the month that I have had the solid state drive for. Review: Installed without any issues and runs great. - The Mushkin Source II - 1TB Internal SSDs I bought (two of them) were meant to replace a Seagate and a Western Digital 1TB SATA HDDs in one of my desktop computers. Dual boot, Windows 10 on one of them, Linux on the other. I was curious to see if I would run into issues with Win 10 cloning, but used Macrium Reflect Free for the boot partition followed by Mini Tool Partition Wizard 10 for the other 6 partitions on the same drive and this went without a hiccup. Next the second HDD was cloned which had Debian Linux Jessie on it (ext4) followed by two more NTFS partitions. I could do this only with Mini Tool, Macrium does not work on Linux. Copying went fine, making the Linux partitions active as well but ended up not being able to boot Linux yet. It will require a bit more work. In any case these SDDs are very fast, night and day in comparison with my previous setup and did not give me any headaches. The price was really good, I have multiples of Muskin SDDs in other computers. So far they outlasted one Intel SDD. Bought the first one at least 4 years ago and it is still running fine. Bought one for my brother at about the same time I bought the first two and that is still running for him just fine. ## Features - SATA-III 2.5" 6Gbit/s 3D-TLC 7mm SSD - Compatibility: PC / Mac / Linux / PlayStation / Xbox - Max Read: 560MB/s ; Max Write: 515MB/s - Silicon Motion Controller: SMI SM2259XT - 4KB Random Read: Up to 75,000 IOPS ; Write: Up to 75,000 IOPS ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0B7Y368BV | | Best Sellers Rank | #1,526 in Internal Solid State Drives | | Brand | Mushkin | | Cache Memory Installed Size | 256 | | Color | Black/Yellow | | Compatible Devices | Desktop, Gaming Console | | Connectivity Technology | SATA | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 532 Reviews | | Data Transfer Rate | 6 Gigabytes Per Second | | Digital Storage Capacity | 256 GB | | Form Factor | 2.5-inch | | Hard Disk Description | Solid State Drive | | Hard Disk Form Factor | 2.5 Inches | | Hard Disk Interface | Serial ATA | | Hard-Drive Size | 256 GB | | Hardware Connectivity | SATA 6.0 Gb/s | | Item Weight | 56 Grams | | Manufacturer | Mushkin Enhanced | | Media Speed | 515 megabytes_per_second | | Model Name | MKNSSDS2 | | Model Number | MKNSSDS2 | | Read Speed | 560 Megabytes Per Second | | UPC | 846651034212 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | 3-Year Limited Replacement Warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Mushkin - **Color:** Black/Yellow - **Compatible Devices:** Desktop, Gaming Console - **Connectivity Technology:** SATA - **Digital Storage Capacity:** 256 GB - **Hard Disk Description:** Solid State Drive - **Hard Disk Form Factor:** 2.5 Inches - **Hard Disk Interface:** Serial ATA - **Hard Disk Size:** 256 GB - **Read Speed:** 560 Megabytes Per Second ## Images ![Mushkin Source-II - Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) - 2.5 Inch - SATA III - 6Gb/s - 3D Vertical TLC - 7mm (256GB Element) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41N6InDnaNL.jpg) ![Mushkin Source-II - Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) - 2.5 Inch - SATA III - 6Gb/s - 3D Vertical TLC - 7mm (256GB Element) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41XgzFYuOBL.jpg) ![Mushkin Source-II - Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) - 2.5 Inch - SATA III - 6Gb/s - 3D Vertical TLC - 7mm (256GB Element) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41XwvIShevL.jpg) ![Mushkin Source-II - Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) - 2.5 Inch - SATA III - 6Gb/s - 3D Vertical TLC - 7mm (256GB Element) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/515vtN42dBL.jpg) ![Mushkin Source-II - Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) - 2.5 Inch - SATA III - 6Gb/s - 3D Vertical TLC - 7mm (256GB Element) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/5193lR+Z2lL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great value, gets the job done; remember to buy 3.5" mount if necessary. *by J***Y on January 25, 2020* It is a great product, remember to buy a mount if you do not have a 2.5 inch storage slot to fit your 3.5 inch slot for hard drives.

However, in the past, I have purchased RAM memory made by them on several occasions and have had good luck with them. Based on those experiences, I decided to give this SSD drive a shot. I was not disappointed. This drive is very fast and is built very well. The read and write times are really fast and has met all my expectations of the Mushkin brand name. Totally worth the price, if you want a good and reliable SSD drive for your desktop or laptop.
