I know Paul, this is a baby drive, :-)
I was ordering filter wicks for my humidifier on Amazon a couple days
ago and decided to browse SSDs for the hell of it and spotted this
entry level drive for $30.00 CDN (less a penny) so ordered 2 but they
had a one per customer thing at that price.
This won't be a working drive as I have cloned my C: drive to it and
it will sit in my desk drawer as a backup only, in addition to my
weekly Macrium backups on anther external disconnected drive.
A safety net you might sayÂ* :-)

If it's big enough - despite being a baby one - that you've cloned your
C: to it, why not actually use it (and get the speed advantage of the
SSD), and keep your hard drive as the backup?


Ever been frustrated that you can't *disagree* with a petition? If so,
visit

Hi John, My C: drive is already an SSD, I am cloning an SSD to An SSD,
My backup hard drive is an external 1TB spinner which is disconnected
until required.
My Coolermaster 690-II case has a hotswap bay built into the top, I can
switch drives in a few seconds can boot to any OS that I have stored on
SSDs.
My C: drive is a 120 GB drive *but* I do not allow anything to be
installed on it except Windows 10 and a few small utilities that will
not install on another drive, So at the moment my Windows on C: drive is
about 29.6 GB, Plenty of room.
