The install was going along well.
All software install. Lots of files rsynced from the old drive to the
new (via USB adapter).
And then things stopped.

I am going to return it and get something else.
At the current prices, that one looks too cheap to trust. But maybe they are
just slower SSD tech. But then you did get a failure on the first(?) try.
When I purchased my two 1T SSD drives from Crucial they were under $55 each,
but that brand is now up to $162 for the BX version. I got the MX before they
were discontinued.
I am going to take a chance with a Bestoss SSD that I can get tomorrow
for $150ish. A Kingston is the same price, but not until the end of
next week. Good reviews on the Bestoss. I really missed the reviews on
the drive I got. Sigh.
READ REVIEWS FIRST. yeah right.... Only an approximation.
You should check the "SMART" info for the drive.
