Youll have to install windows 10 upgrade on the existing drive first. Once installed and activated, you can use the windows 10 iso to install a fresh windows 10 on the new drive.

Good price. bought one 3 weeks ago at £40 to fit in an old Sony laptop but just couldn't get it to boot every time. Ended up being a 1 in 4 or 5 chance that it would post and boot.
Put a Samsung 840 Evo in there and it worked no problem so I put it down to a controller incompatibility between Sony and Sandisk.
Put the Sandisk in a HP and no problems there at all.
Would still buy again.

A very decent SSD for the money, also the 120GB one has been slightly cheaper before.
All my neighbours now have 120/240GB Sandisk Plus SSDs in their computers and are very happy with them. :stuck_out_tongue:

Still waiting for those pesty 1TBs to drop below the £100 mark. I think I'll be waiting a while longer :disappointed:

Next year should see normal SSD's come down in price even more, especially with the (apparently) much faster 3D Xpoint SSD's on the way.

Built my son a pc earlier in the year but boot up speeds are getting a little slower.
Would this 120gb be a decent upgrade?
I was thinking of installing this along side the 1tb hard drive and installing windows 10 onto it.
Does everything on the original hard drive have to be wiped/formatted?

Unplug your existing Hdd, plug this SSD in and install Windows onto it. Then go into the bios and set the SSD as boot drive.
Then when it all logs into Windows, you HDD will show up on 'computer' ...

Currently running 8.1 though, so if I install 10 on the new ssd will i have to format the HDD and re-install everything?
