SanDisk SSD Concierge Service provides full
support during SSD upgrade process
SanDisk Corporation (NASDAQ:SNDK), a global leader in flash
storage solutions, today introduced the first SSD upgrade service
with live video support. The SanDisk® SSD Concierge Service offers
full support for SanDisk solid state drive (SSD) installations1 and
is designed to simplify upgrades for consumers of all technical
backgrounds.
“Many customers understand the benefits an SSD can bring to an
aging laptop but they also feel anxious about performing an upgrade
by themselves,” said Philippe Willams, director of product
marketing, SanDisk. “The SanDisk SSD Concierge Service’s
step-by-step live support will give consumers the confidence to
install an SSD and enjoy the benefits of speed, performance and
reliability.”
Upgrading an aging laptop with an SSD can greatly improve
performance and is more cost effective than purchasing a new one.
With advanced flash memory storage and significantly faster speeds,
SSDs outpace traditional hard-disk drives (HDDs) in every
performance category2. In addition, SSDs run cooler, create less
noise, and use less power, which helps extend laptop battery life,
and reduce the strain on limited system resources.
Through the SanDisk SSD Concierge Service, consumers will have
all of the tools required to upgrade their laptop successfully.
This includes the hardware and software necessary to migrate data
as well as install the new SSD3. Once data has been successfully
migrated, consumers will have the ability to schedule a video
conference via mobile device with a SanDisk technician, who will
walk them through the final steps of removing the existing storage
device and installing their new SSD. The SanDisk SSD Concierge
Service will support all SanDisk consumer SSDs.
Pricing and Availability
The SanDisk SSD Concierge Service is available through Amazon
and TigerDirect at $39.991.
