Strengths:
DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM ADATA!
Additional Comments:
I bought an ADATA SSD and it died about six months after I purchased it. I tried to RMA the hardware through memory express but they told me to go do the manufacturer. So I did and ADATA refused to do anything at all. This is the email I got from Steven Yun from ADATA.
Hello,
Unfortunately,
since MemoryExpress is not a direct vendor or marketplace to our company, we cannot issue a replacement or a refund for your defective drive. We suggest creating a return directly through the MemoryExpress site or finding a new replacement for your current
setup.

Strengths:
Fast as advertised
Firmware has always been up to date
Striped very well at 1110MB/s read speed and 1028MB/s write
Weaknesses:
I have yet to have an issue
Additional Comments:
Do not let the non "shamshung" brand name fool you, bang for buck reliability these are amazing. I have 3 SU800 drives in my pc 2 x 512gb in stripe and 1 256gb OS drive. they all work great! No failures, no downtime, no issues at all. Honestly for the price of these drives over samsung drives and the performance they offer I just cant condone other drives. especially after my issues with 3 other brands (patriot, OCZ, and yes the beloved samsung) I just don't see the value in the other brands.

Strengths:
Installed 2 of these 512GB units for clients, plus a 256GB model in my laptop. Also have an older 500GB Adata SSD in my desktop. All 4 drives running fine after a year. Blazing fast compared to old mechanical hard drives. Boot time went from 2 minutes to 20 seconds.
Weaknesses:
Free software requires signing up & registering drive. Take a picture of the Drive labels before installing, so you don't need to open thing up again later.
There are some drives out there that are a few seconds faster, but not worth the extra cash in my opinion.
Additional Comments:
ALL drive show less space after formatting. Prior reviewer incorrectly lists this as a fault. Catch one of these on the frequent sales!

Additional Comments:
I upgraded my Toshiba Qosmio X770 Laptop (PSBY5C-01H00Q) existing hard drives (from factory: 750GB HDD+128GB SSD) as the existing HDD was starting to make funny noises.
I replaced the Toshiba 128GB SSD to the ADATA Ultimate SU800 512GB SSD, and the Toshiba 750GB HDD to a Seagate ST2000LM015 2TB BarraCuda 2.5in HDD, 128MB Cache.
In the past I have typically installed my new parts, but I checked with the service department about how long it would take to clone the drives and install them into my laptop while I was in the store. I was in Calgary for a few days and they said that they could have it done for me by the time I left town.
I left my laptop with Memory Express and they had it finished by the time I let to return to Red Deer.
My laptop acts like a new machine plus I no longer have to worry about which file to keep due to hard drive space.
Very happy with the drives and with all the customer support from Memory Express as always.

Strengths:
None to be seen yet
Weaknesses:
Software "Packaged" with the harddisk is hard to get and just wastes your time.
You have to sign up for three seperate accounts to get the software. Registering your product needs the code on the Bottom of the SSD. If you've already mounted your SSD well tough, unmount it get the code and remount it.
Get the code on the bottom of the SSD or better yet, get a Samsung.
Additional Comments:
I just love buying headaches for myself...
