So, a friend of mine has a brand new M4 SSD from crucial that he isn't using, and decided to sell it to me for $50. I figured $50 was a good deal on a 256GB SSD, so I snatched it up.
This is it
The instructions claim that it is meant for a notebook, but there should be no reason I can't use it for my desktop, right?
I have no idea even what kind of cable that thing is, but I'll be searching my computer tomorrow to see if I have one that fits.
Edit: Upon inspection, that looks just like an ordinary SATA cable. So I don't think there will be any problem installing this into a desktop. I'll just need to pick up a bay converter to fit it into a 3.5inch bay, and then figure out how to move my OS to it while keeping my other media on my HDD.
