According to our solid state drive (SSD) expert
Note: this 2.5-inch SSD has a SATA interface and only works if your system supports SATA. Check this in the manual of your laptop or motherboard.
The Crucial MX500 1TB 2.5 inches is an internal SSD which you can use to expand the storage capacity of your laptop. Thanks to the 64-layer 3D NAND technology, the SSD is more energy-efficient than the MX300 series. As a result, your laptop lasts longer on a single charge. This drive reads at 560MB/s. That's 30MB/s faster than the MX300 SSD to open large files such as movies and graphic design projects. A 2GB video takes 4 seconds to transfer. Thanks to the AES 256-bit hardware encryption, you protect your movie collection, holiday photos, and study or work documents from hackers and data theft. On top of that, the automatic error correction and recovery in case of power loss ensures your files won't be damaged and are saved when you have a power outage.

Make a backup copy on an external drive, then replace the HDD with the SSD. Booting via the external (USB) disk, emptying the SSD via the disk utility and then it was possible to restore the backup to the SSD.

I bought this drive to replace my 120GB SSD. The software to clone the drive was quick to find through their website and using this software was not difficult either.
