Performance is abysmal

Reviewed in the United States on August 19, 2019

Capacity: 1TBVerified Purchase

First off, one has to accept SK hynix's terms and conditions without being able to read them (they are sealed inside the box and by opening the box you agree to the Ts & Cs - although there is a short summary on the box).

Second, the performance is abysmal. Several benchmarks show that it writes FASTER than it reads. This is exactly the opposite of the way it is supposed to be. The third photo shows the performance of a CHN SSD. Another benchmark shows the CHN SSD average read speed at 7,900.68 MB/sec whereas this drive is 1939.57 MB/sec.

I certainly expected better performance than this!

GREAT SSD

Reviewed in the United States on September 3, 2019

Capacity: 1TBVerified PurchaseEarly Reviewer Rewards(What's this?)

Overall, I am satisfied with SK hynix Gold S31 1TB.
It would be much much better or maybe getting more interest from customers if it was around $115.
However, it is still a good product and I feel like it is a budget Evo (Samsung) version.
5-year warranty: Same as Evo, Crucial,
Write/Read speed: Reasonable (Picture),
Stable temperature: Around 30'C (at idle).

*The speed test result is not always the same (sometimes higher/lower). it has been tested with 2011 Macbook Pro 15".

Terrific performance, endurance, and value. What's not to love?

Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2019

Capacity: 1TBVerified Purchase

As a system builder, I admit that I'm quite picky when it comes to the quality and performance of the PC parts I choose to purchase. I've used an SK Hynix SSD as my personal boot drive for a few years and it has performed perfectly. When I decided to upgrade a storage drive from traditional mechanical to an SSD, it was a no brainer to choose this 1TB Gold model from SK Hynix. It achieves excellent SATA performance (see benchmark screenshots), is currently priced very competitively, and boasts top notch endurance (600 terabytes written) that's backed by a lengthy (5 year) warranty. Beautiful. If only they came in 2 or 4TB options...

Excellent drive for the price

Reviewed in the United States on October 15, 2019

Capacity: 1TBVerified Purchase

Love this little drive! It upgraded my out-of-the-box PC to a gaming champ. I did some research and saw that SK hynix just started offering the 1 TB SSD in the US, so I decided to give it a try. Personally, this is now my go-to option for upgrading PCs, especially if you're looking to cut startup time and run games. No frame drop, no lag, and now my computer will last for a few more years before I have to upgrade it! As a gamer and streamer, I'm thrilled to save a few thousand bucks on a new computer. I'll probably order another one for my work computer too since it's been so nice.

Finally moving on to SSD from Traditional Disk HDD

Reviewed in the United States on August 27, 2019

Verified Purchase

I've bought hundreds of drives over the years to upgrade computers for myself and friends. I use Mac and Windows PCs for both personal use and business use based on needs and software I need to use for specific jobs. Traditional Hard drive was my all time favorite to cover amount of data I have in my personal server at lower cost, well Time changes and I guess time to move on to SSD has arrived. Samsung/Western Digital/A-Data there was so many choices and I guess this brand have come into my mind want wanted to try, with such a great cost!!

I bought 250Gb Hard Drive to upgrade my OS Drive, Never been so easy with included software data transfer became so easy and gave me one less hectic steps that I need to concern!!

Speed? No question is needed

Durability? I don’t run my computer 24/7 in dusty and overheated environment, This will last probably longer than any of my traditional HDD !

So.. I’m on my step to transfer all my 3tb data in server HDD to SSD

If you are looking for SSD for personal computer, I think this is great one in great price,

Great option for new upgrade!

Reviewed in the United States on August 26, 2019

Capacity: 1TBVerified Purchase

I’ve wanted to upgrade my computer for a long time. Everytime I play WoW or CoD it feels like my computer is still stuck in the 2000s. My friend told me that upgrading my hard drive to an SSD and putting my Windows OS on it would significantly increase the performance. I saw SK hynix in the news last week and thought their new drive looked pretty cool. Installation was super simple and no complaints so far!

Ok Hynix. Now that you are growing up and trying to get into the direct to consumer space, here are a few pointers (and ways many of the rest of us can actually get to using what is an otherwise good and well-priced product).
1. Do not advertise that you include a migration tool unless you actually do. What you "included" is the option fo a consumer to do detective work to a) find where you hosted you software application that will allow b) some fraction of those that purchase a USB-to-SATA cable to do a drive migration themselves. For those that are purchasing to put this in a laptop, be advised this is neither cloud enabled migration not does it include the x$ USB adapter cable to do a migration. Really, the only customers than can do the migration are those that already have a spare SATA connection and their own SATA cable, or those that have a eSATA or USB-to_SATA cable of their own. I own a lot of spares, but just ordered the cable from amazon so i can finally use the Hynix product.

2. Don't rely on your customers to be psychic. There was nothing in the instructions about accessing your website to download the cloning/migration software. Only because I had already read a review that mentioned that drive cloning software was "included" did I even know to look for where to download such. Since their was *none mentioned in the instructions* I decided to look for a web address--that was in the finest of print and without any mention that this is where one should go for additional information.

3. Once an enterprising and adventurous customer has accomplished this, they can indeed use your product which is good value/GB and a SATA interface-saturating bandwidth (per reviews, not my testing mind you) and the drive cloning software was actually intuitive and easy to navigate (which is good since you included no printed instructions or link to your intended instructions). Since I bought this as a storage space upgrade and already had a high-end Samsung drive that had stellar transfer rates, I can't comment on any notable difference on that front, but none was expected, to be fair.

Overall, recommended, but I suspect that Hynix is going to anger more than a few of their initial customers (I was merely annoyed). That isn't a great way to build brand reputation and encourage us to keep looking at you when Samsung and Crucial are offering proven and familiar products with less mystery (although not necessarily at such a price point or with the included drive cloning software). That is too bad because I think the overall product and entry point was otherwise sound.

I'm always a little nervous as a consumer working outside of my home. This time, nice surprise. The FEDEX agent had the good idea to drop my $123.00 hard drive in my mailbox instead of leaving it at my door, as their boss instructed. I will be able to stay quiet and enjoy my high quality hard drive at a reasonable price!

Great upgrade!

Reviewed in Australia on September 6, 2020

Great little ssd! Installed it as an upgraded boot drive in a 2012 Mac Mini. Once I finally got through the installation and setup, (my old Mac was a bit of a pain) the drive worked perfectly and my system has sped up significantly with far fewer crashes in apps. I'm running a dual boot system on this drive with all my file storage kept on my old HDD (I have both installed).
