TOP FAVORABLE REVIEW
Fast, quiet, cool and cheap!!!

Installed this on my Mid 2009 Macbook Pro, therefore running only at 3Gbit/s. Boot-up and application launching time is stupidly fast. No noise coming from my MBP. SSD temp 34C (CPU 50C when idle). Price is very affordable compared to other brands.

None that I can think of.

I was very skeptical about buying ADATA but the price was too tempting and also I didn't have many other choices at this price point since I live in Japan.
If you are installing this on a Macbook Pro and your CPU is running hot after installing the SSD, reset your SMC and PRAM/NVRAM.
Many ways to install OSX on this. Personally I just restored previous Time Machine backup with bootable USB.
