Looking to
upgrade a laptop HDD to the power of SSD I decided to try the Chinese
way with this one.
So I bought the cheapest Chinese SSD drive
that I could find in the size I wanted ~120GB.
Vaseky V800 128G is a 128GB solid state drive.
Made a video
showing the tests and conclusions.
Speed test of the drive on
Sata II computer.

After Install
After NTFS
formatting the free available disk caacity was 119GB, not bad. Didn’t
need more.
Speed was the important bit here… and
compatibility. 🙂
Recognized by Windows 10 without any problems
as Vaseky V800/128G.
No extra drivers needed.
Initial
thoughts on this cheap Chinese SSD is good, will use it more and hope
it stays alive a long time.

This SSD is a M-SATA ssd that can be installed in an Msata or mini PCI-E slot in your PC or Laptop.
Some Laptops might not accept a msata SSD in a mini PCI-E slot if they are not made to accept ssd drives.
Best to check your laptop specifications before upgrading.
For example, the laptop I bought this for initially (Acer Aspire 5100 series) does not work with this SSD unfortunately.
Using a msata to SATA adapter is easy as shown in the video if the system is compatible : /
