Review: Worst product and customer service ever - Stay well clear . It broke after about 2 weeks . Kept ejecting itself on a brand new m4 Mac mini. long story short I sent it back to crucial 6 weeks later still no return no refund .. they never contact me . I’m doing all the chasing . I’m out of pocket and no sssd .. absolutely fuming . my trusty Samsung t7 still going strong with out a glitch .. desertcart if u can do something please contact me . As I have nothing to show for the £280 I paid Review: Do not buy this product or from this company customer service from crucial is terrible. - I have only and this product two months and it has drastically failed on me with data still on there but no way of accessing the drive as it suddenly after 24 hours of working suddenly stopped mounting on my Mac after trying many steps to get the drive working from basic steps to various in depth technical steps I am having to fund to get the data taken from the drive as Crucial are not willing to recover the data like other companies such as various other companies do if your drive fails within the year warranty as well as replacing the drive which have only offered. I find this as a huge company that is a big name in the tech industry does not do this as mentioned above i will not be buying from crucial again as the service provided is below standard. yes people are going to say I should back up but then why is the onus being put on me and if i had this 8 months r even past the warranty i can understand but only using it for two months max i dont expect this to happen and is a first for me. Also why are crucial a big name in the tech game not offering services i now have to pay out for out of my own pocket for something that was not my fault and especially when other big companies offer this. ## Features - Real speed.

This fits the bill perfectly. I've always had good experiences with Crucial products (SSD and memory) so didnt hesitate to buy this at the price. Positives: Fast, quiet and small. Works perfectly with my MacBook Pro and is hidden away behind the external monitor. Because of the size I can take either with me when I travel which is massive advantage compared to having to access the old drive using Synology VPN and jumping through a lot of hoops and even then getting slow performance over the internet. Negatives: None other than it is black and small and disappears into my laptop rucksack and can be difficult to find. This is not really the product's fault!
