My current operating SSD is running out of space and I'm thinking of getting this 1TB to transfer the OS. Do you guys see any problems with using this SSD?

[msmcleod]

I use Crucial MX500's almost exclusively - they're rock solid.

My current DAW has the MX500 2TB partitioned in two (C for OS and E for libraries), an MX500 1TB drive for my dev OS, and an MX500 500GB for projects.

I use 2x 1TB Crucial MX500 for sample and instrument storage. They have been excellent (1 year so far)

[kitekrazy]

 I've been going with Crucial and WD because of the 5yr warranty.   Also check the price of their 2TB $157.65.

[Mesh]

The price has been lowered to $67.60 today. 

I'm thinking of getting 2 of these instead of the 2TB one ($157.65) 

[cclarry]

Better deal is the 4 TB for $289.99

I got one of these a few years ago for Kontakt libraries and use it for temp projects as well. Never had any issues with mine either.

I saw a bearded guy w/ glasses on YouTube saying you shouldn't be messing with anything less than 4tb drives these days, so I'm following that advice, whoever he was.
