For the price, this NVMe drive has speeds that match the Pro series. Installing it is easy, but either clean install Windows or get a reputable Nvme enclosure (my enclosure wasn't able to handle the cloning.) So, I just installed this into the laptop and then installed Windows from a USB. These NVMe drives get super hot, so not sure if enclosures are a good idea anyway. Other than the hiccup with the cloning. This drive is performing great in my Razer blade 15 base.

I purchased this based on positive reviews in regards to price and performance. Not as fast as a 970 Pro, but that would be overkill for my purposes as I am not a heavy gamer. Great for photo and video editing, web surfing, YouTubing, etc. The Samsung Data Migration software made transferring Win10 from my old Samsung 860 SATA SSD to this MVMe drive quickly and easily! Samsung has great SSD drives and great utility software!

System Alienware A51M (laptop) For everyone looking to upgrade or change to a good dependable drive, this is a great option with great speeds for everyday use and gaming. For those that have seen the review where the hard drive is not recognized, stay calm that just means that your system was pre-set with Raid and yes an option is to enable in bios and then have to re-install the OS but... you can do it through the command line without having to re-install OS. open CMD as admin type: bcdeit/set safeboot hit enter if successful, restart and then when bios pop up select achi and apply then when system re-starts in safe mode open cmd again and type: bcdedit/deletevalue safeboot hit enter and re-start and you should be good to go worked on my system and should be the same for any dell or Win10 system. Second and third image show that samsung magician is recognizing the drive as an NVME

This storage is the best! Extremely fast, reliable, and for a reasonable price! Love it. Perfect for gaming.

I bought this ssd for an asus tuf 2022, it originally had a 512 gig ssd which was much less than what I needed as a cs student with a gaming hobby. So after a bit of research I found this hard drive workes with my computer. I installed it with no issues. Now I have 1.5 tb space. Works great and arrived the next day. Thanks Best Buy.
