    Good product

    This ssd drive is very good, it has decent peripheral protection, it is much lighter than a hdd drive. I use it as a backup, much better than the usb sticks I bought, faster. I have been using it as a backup, much better than the usb sticks I bought, faster, and the ldlc delivery was as usual trouble free.

    Packaging already opened

    Hello
    The packaging of the package was in good condition. But the hard drive packaging itself was already open. Plastic cut with scissors.
    I don't understand why?

    Perfect

    Good SSD, with a good protection for transport, perfect! However, beware that the SSD does not have 480GB of free space, it has 400GB

    External protection box, a bit big!

    I'm a bit disappointed with the outer case, the size is the same as a regular external hard drive.
    I have to say that I am very pleased with the quality of the product and the price. I have to say that I am very pleased with the quality of the product and the price of the product.

    fast and a priori robust

    Used as storage for a Nextcloud server on Raspberry Pi, transfers are fast.

    To answer questions about capacity:
    480 GB = 480 000 000 000 bytes
    = 480 000 000 000 / 1024 / 1024 / 1024 Gb
    = 447 Gb
    The capacity is correctly announced, it is necessary to distinguish between kilo/mega/giga-bytes (1 kb = 1000 bytes) and kibi/mebi/gibi-bytes (1 kio = 1024 bytes).

    Very good

    I used the SSD to replace the hard drive in my laptop and put it in the case. Everything works perfectly.
    I would recommend one for a friend.

    False capacity

    I ordered this hard drive which is supposed to have 480 GB and I find myself with 447 GB available...
    Is this normal?
