    Fixed it on my 12 year old MacBook Pro. It was very easy to install. The weight of my system has reduced, but not significantly. Remember, this is a Pro and it's 12 year old, and while there're no vacuum tubes used, still it's a heavy system.
    The most significant thing to notice is the reduced energy consumption by the system. The consistent loud noise of cooling fan is a thing of past. I hear some sound only at the time of booting the system.
    It's been only a few months, till now satisfied about the product. Value-for-money, up till now.

    I won't call this the fastest SATA SSD around, but got it for Rs. 4400 during the sale which puts it way cheaper that anything else for a TLC drive and it shows decent performance for the money. After filling the drive to about 65%, there was no degradation in the read/write speeds. When compared to Crucial BX500, it was little slower for an empty drive; but once filled the performance on BX500 drops on the write speeds.

    Its a good drive for anyone upgrading from a HDD or as a game drive as moving up to NVME for gaming has little merit.

    5.0 out of 5 stars SP1 SSD,3D NAND technology, SLC Cache, is a ssd that promises enhanced performance and reliability
    Reviewed in the United States on 27 September 2023
    Verified Purchase
    The SP SSD offers a significant performance boost compared to traditional hard drives. The 3D NAND technology ensures efficient data storage and retrieval, resulting in faster boot times, application launches, and overall system responsiveness. The drive's read and write speeds are notably improved, making it a suitable upgrade for those looking to breathe new life into an older computer or enhance the performance of a newer one.

    The inclusion of an SLC (Single-Level Cell) cache is a noteworthy feature. SLC caching technology optimizes the drive's performance by temporarily storing frequently accessed data in a high-speed cache. This means that everyday tasks and applications benefit from accelerated speeds, even when dealing with larger files or multitasking.

    This SSD is designed with broad compatibility in mind. Its 2.5-inch form factor and 7mm (0.28-inch) thickness make it suitable for most laptops and desktop computers. Additionally, its SATA III interface ensures compatibility with a wide range of devices, including older systems that may not support newer NVMe drives.

    Solid-state drives are known for their durability, and the SP 1TB SSD is no exception. With no moving parts, it's less susceptible to physical damage caused by shocks or vibrations. It's also engineered to be energy-efficient, which not only extends the life of the drive but also helps conserve power in laptops for longer battery life.

    In terms of value for money, this SSD offers an excellent balance of price and performance. It's a cost-effective way to upgrade your computer's storage and enjoy the benefits of a solid-state drive without breaking the bank.

    In conclusion, the SP SSD with 3D NAND, SLC Cache, and SATA III connectivity is a reliable and efficient storage solution. It provides a noticeable performance boost over traditional hard drives, making it a worthwhile upgrade for anyone seeking to enhance their computer's speed and responsiveness. Its compatibility with a wide range of devices and its cost-effectiveness make it a compelling choice for both casual users and enthusiasts.

    If you're in the market for a dependable and affordable solid-state drive that can breathe new life into your computer, the SP SSD is a worthy investment that combines speed, reliability, and value for money.

    Added this to my SFF which only has space for 2.5inch drives, I'm not sure if this is the cheapest on the market, but was an absolute steal. I've got enough room to not worry about running out of space, especially when I convert this to a fulltime media streamer.

    5.0 out of 5 stars 1TB - Model A55 / 2.5 SDD
    Reviewed in the United States on 16 December 2018
    Verified Purchase
    I directly copied over my O.S. (Operating system) from a mechanical Hard drive (HD) to the SSD using Macrium Reflect. The boot time of Windows 10 / 64-bit is never "speedy" {even with the SSD - about 20-25 seconds from BIOS logo to windows login}.

    The noticeable speed difference will come when you launch bulky applications like: Photoshop, games, photos, etc. Boot time will vary depending on different factors.

    The Silicon SDD speeds are the same as the Samsun 860 EVO 1TB (Up to 550/520MB/s seq read/write speeds). My tests are showing A55-1TB Silicone SSD with 550/440MB/s (screenshot posted with this review). My speeds are not tested with an "Empty" drive the A55/SSD was tested with a fully functioning OS on it (20% of the drive filled during testing). This is a fast drive at a reasonable price.

    IF, anything should occur with the hard drive over a period of time I will return to update this review (if possible). I am using three different variants of the Silicone SSD: 1TB, 480GB, and 256GB. (desktop, laptop, desktop) All three SSD drives are meeting or exceeding their competition's speeds.

    A note to all Windows users, please change your advance settings / hard disk timeout in your control panel unless you don't care about very noticeable lag spikes when you open or launch applications/documents. This is under "control panel", top right search box type "power", left window "Edit power plan". "Change advanced power settings", Expand "Hard disk" by clicking on the + symbol to the left of it. Click on the + symbol to the left of "turn off hard disk after", click on "Setting" change to 0 minutes. (do this for M.2/NVME/SSD) otherwise you will wonder why your highspeed drive is acting "slow".

    UPDATE: I have now purchased about 5 Silicon SSD (2.5) drives. ALL 5 are still working very well 5 months in. I have done speed tests on a few of them every month (I have multiple sizes: 256, 512, 480, 1TB) The speeds are stable. Meaning you will get a slight variation (either faster or slow) in the speed test numbers but nothing dramatic. If you are concerned about data loss, get a second hard drive (mechanical if you wish). Go get Macrium Reflect, home edition, and you can make a direct copy of your OS boot drive into an image file. Macrium is a UK based software company that has powerful free (home edition) software. YouTube has wonderful videos on how to do this, very simple. Remember to buy a USB stick (2GB more than enough) to make a media boot for recovery purposes.

    5.0 out of 5 stars 1TB - Model A55 / 2.5 SDD
    Reviewed in the United States on 16 December 2018
    I directly copied over my O.S. (Operating system) from a mechanical Hard drive (HD) to the SSD using Macrium Reflect. The boot time of Windows 10 / 64-bit is never "speedy" {even with the SSD - about 20-25 seconds from BIOS logo to windows login}.

    The noticeable speed difference will come when you launch bulky applications like: Photoshop, games, photos, etc. Boot time will vary depending on different factors.

    The Silicon SDD speeds are the same as the Samsun 860 EVO 1TB (Up to 550/520MB/s seq read/write speeds). My tests are showing A55-1TB Silicone SSD with 550/440MB/s (screenshot posted with this review). My speeds are not tested with an "Empty" drive the A55/SSD was tested with a fully functioning OS on it (20% of the drive filled during testing). This is a fast drive at a reasonable price.

    IF, anything should occur with the hard drive over a period of time I will return to update this review (if possible). I am using three different variants of the Silicone SSD: 1TB, 480GB, and 256GB. (desktop, laptop, desktop) All three SSD drives are meeting or exceeding their competition's speeds.

    A note to all Windows users, please change your advance settings / hard disk timeout in your control panel unless you don't care about very noticeable lag spikes when you open or launch applications/documents. This is under "control panel", top right search box type "power", left window "Edit power plan". "Change advanced power settings", Expand "Hard disk" by clicking on the + symbol to the left of it. Click on the + symbol to the left of "turn off hard disk after", click on "Setting" change to 0 minutes.
