Product Description
We offer two levels of SSD performance to support your needs: consumer or professional. Most of our customers will be blown away by the consumer level; if you want the fastest SSD on the market, you’ll need the professional level. Read the product information below for a more detailed explanation. All prices include installation and data transfer.
To understand the difference between consumer and professional grade solid state drives, we need to explain a few computer terms to you. Here are the specifications for each drive:

To put it simply, the faster the read and write speed, the faster your computer will run. Currently, the bottleneck in performance for a computer is how fast it can access the data on the drive itself. Processor speed doesn’t matter for most consumers. When you start to get into professional work, it can make a big difference… but for the average consumer it really doesn’t affect much.
So who needs a professional level drive? Either SSD provides amazing performance compared to a normal hard drive, some professionals may wish to use the pro-level SSD for specific files and situations. The professional-level SSD is optimized to handle incompressible files — audio, video and still photography get a boost from the better performance. If you work in those fields, you may want/need the faster drive.
