Great performance improvement for older Toshiba Satellite notebook
I have an older Toshiba Satellite M65 notebook computer from early 2006 that still has a parallel ATA (PATA) disk interface but a gorgeous 17.4" wide screen that I use mostly for web browsing, watching movies, remote desktop activities and running MS Office. Several years ago I maxed out its RAM (to 2GB) and installed Windows 7 Ultimate Edition (the machine was originally designed for Windows XP). Everything was working great but over the years with the installation of service packs, hotfixes, additional apps and utilities, the machine had gotten quite slow and I found the hard drive to be the performance bottleneck. After purchasing the 128GB Transcend PSD330 drive, I was able to clone my old 95GB PATA drive to this SSD, and installed it into the laptop; the drive fit perfectly, being the same form factor as the old 2.5" mechanical PATA drive (I just had to be careful to set the master/slave/cable select jumper the same way it was set on the old drive). After this change, my laptop is fast again; gone are my excessive waits browing the web, taking the machine out of hybernation, and even while starting it up. Although the PATA interface only runs at 100MB/s max (much slower than today's SATA disks), with this near-zero latency SSD the performance has improved significantly and is now more than acceptable for my type of use. In fact, the Windows Experience Index (for the hard drive specifically) changed to 5.9 from 4.2 after installing this drive in my notebook which is excellent. As you may expect it is very quiet as well (no noise at all). I can't comment yet on durability but everything else so far has been a great experience. I am expecting this drive will extend my notebook's life for another two years or so, which makes it well worth the money spent on it.

Works GREAT in a Dell Inspiron 9300 Laptop
I replaced a 100 GB HDD in my Dell Inspiron 9300 laptop with this Transcend 128 GB SSD and I have to say that it has been the best improvement that I could have made to this aging 9300 laptop. Not only do I have more disk capacity, but also the WEI subscore for the disk data transfer rate increased from 4.4 with the HDD to a significantly increased 5.9 with the Transcend SSD. This upgrade alone has made my laptop performance so much better. The SSD was easy to install and it fit perfectly in the drive caddy. I performed a fresh, clean install of Windows 7 Home Premium onto the SSD and Windows is running absolutely great on it. The SSD has breathed new life into my Inspiron 9300, making it a lot more pleasant to use with its increased performance. Note that the SSD packaging clearly shows a "Compatible with Windows 7" logo on it so you can be assured that it works with Windows 7 PCs. I would highly recommend this SSD to anyone that wants to replace a traditional IDE/ATA HDD in their laptop. It's been a real blessing having this SSD ever since I installed it. It's by far an excellent performer, and it runs whisper quiet. Definitely worth a five start rating.

Best upgrade ever, perfect fit and operation, super fast upgrade for my old Dell D600 laptop.
Old Dell laptop, Latitude D600, it's ten times faster now. I used a quality Vantec SATA / IDE to USB adapter, EaseUS Todo back up cloning freeware to move my entire old hard drive contents and OS before I switched out the hard drives.. Boot time is at least 80% faster, my data intensive charting software which used to take well over an hour to update now takes just 5 to 7 minutes. I'm not a super saavy tech guy, it went better that I could imagine, had jumper out as I initialized the SSD, moved my stuff, put jumper in as master for installation. I like that it was a perfect fit and match, comes with mounting screws too, tolerances are tight, I pulled off the old hard drive pin adapter and used it on the new SSD, that's simple enough but could be confusing if you didn't know that. Best upgrade for an older laptop in my opinion, I did upgrade the RAM memory and processor prior but this Transcend SSD makes this old Dell blazingly fast.

Seemingly incompatible with Vaio VGN-A series
Given the success others have mentioned using this to revitalize older laptops, I was disappointed to be unable to boot from this on a 2005 Sony VAIO VGN-A197VP. Computer recognized the drive fine as I could install the OS onto it, and mount it and see the files etc, but on boot would consistently get black screen and flashing cursor. If I configure the MBR to always prompt, then on boot I see MBR 1234: but none of the partitions actually boot. BIOS recognizes the drive OK as well, but there's something about the drive that the BIOS doesn't seem to appreciate. Swapped back to the original hard drive, wiped it and did the same install process and all good, so seems to be a compatibility issue.

Excellent upgrade for a HP Pavilion DV1000
Used to upgrade a HP Pavilion DV1000. This drive dropped right in after transferring the adapter from the old HDD to this one and making sure the jumpers matched. Loading Windows 7 onto it was trouble free (upgraded to 4GB RAM and 2.1GHz processor a while back) and then I loaded the few programs I needed the laptop for. With my old HDD I was starting to have lag issues with some tuning programs and webpages that have a lot of ads/video on them. Now my eleven year old laptop is a fast as my tablet and desktop at browsing and will boot up faster than either of them (Kindle Fire HD7 and the desktop is a dual SLI 8 core gaming rig with SSD OS and program HDDs). I would definitely recommend this drive if you have an older laptop with a regular HDD; it really is a night and day difference in speed and is way cheaper than buying a new laptop.

So far, it's a fail for Older ASUS laptops
I had high hopes for this drive, and took a chance. I installed it in an ASUS W-5F laptop. No joy; the computer doesn't see it at all. The bios can't see it, so I can't do anything with it. I reset the bios to default, and everything else I could think of, with no success. It's a solid portable that we bought in early 2006. [...] Don't bother. I bought it a year ago for the Asus W5-F. Worked great for about 9 months. Then, it starting "hanging" on file downloads. Now, it hangs about 5 minutes after booting into windows. It was great while it lasted, but the expense I paid to retain a nostalgic piece of gear could have been spent towards a an i3 setup... I will be returning the drive in the next few days. I wish there was a PATA to SATA solution for laptops.

Works so far for a year
I have had this for a year so far and it has worked great for a PATA only laptop (PowerBook G4). I had tried another KingSpec PATA SSD and it did work, however it had trouble with master/slave which meant it was either a CD/DVD drive or the SSD. With this Transcend one I was able to use both (with this one in Master mode). At least with the PowerBook G4, using this SSD I can max out the transfer rate of the DMA level it supports. So it is almost nearly theoretical maximum, but not quite. So I would recommend this one if you have an older laptop and there is no possible way you can cram a SATA to PATA adapter and a SATA SSD in your system. Otherwise if you can, it would be best to stick with SATA since you can use it on more modern systems.

PATA drive
Bought this originally for my Jeep radio. Did an image of the original HDD on it, it fits, it reads, it works, bit faster. A good replacement. To note, the OE HDD has no jumper when plugged in. The internals of the radio handles that.

Excelente opción para mejorar equipos antiguos.
Una idea excelente para poder acelerar equipos antiguos. Indicado para equipos de uso industrial que necesitan ser mantenidos o mejorados en el tiempo. Si bien la capacidad puede parecer escasa, para Windows Xp o versiones anteriores es mucho más de lo necesario.

普通に動いている
SSDは最近、安くなっていて、不良品も多く出回っているようですが、このSSDは、SATAではなく一昔前のIDEの規格で動くものです。 2003年以来使っていたDell Latitude D800の日立製のHDがついに止まったので(実際にはネットにつながず音楽の再生に利用)どうするか考えていたのですが、他のノートブックをSSDに変えるのにサイトを見ていたときに少し高いけどIDE互換のSSDがあるのかと覚えていたのでそれを思い出し購入しました。 一万円も出せば1TBのSSDが買える時代にと思われるかもしれませんが、このDellのD800はあたりで、組立てはマレーシアですが、かなりの部品が日本製(当時はあったんですね)です。これに今回のSSDに交換して何とWidows7を動かしています。ワープロや音楽を聴くには問題ないです。恐ろしいですね。 現在、私が仕事でつかっているHPのworkstationはCore-i7でメモリーも8GBでSSDなのですがワードを使うに大差ないとは! さすがに画像とかはだめですが。 SSDを購入されるときの細かい規格について、またBIOSの規格についても、注意されるのがよいと思います。

Ottimo prodotto , funzionale e facile da installare
Non velocissimo dato la porta PATA e non SATA , con questo tipo di SSD trascend ho avuto qualche problema a distanza di un'anno , sono "impazzite " cambiato il riconoscimento da parte del bios , ma grazie alla garanzia trascend di 3 anni sono state sostituite... forse un lotto difettoso

Muy rápido, da nueva vida a tu portátil
Hola, lo he instalado en mi antiguo portátil y va como un rayo. Cargan los programas mucho mas rápido, es totalmente silencioso, se nota hasta en el consumo de batería. Lo recomiendo totalemente, además tiene la ventaja sobre los discos normales que es mucho mas duradero y seguro para tus datos.
