- Key Specs
- Storage Capacity: 1000 gigabytes (Measured in megabytes (MB), gigabytes (GB) and terabytes (TB), this is the amount available for storing files, music, movies, photos and more. The total includes the capacity of the hard disk drive and solid state drive if both are included on the computer.)
- Storage Drive Type: SSD (Traditional, mechanical hard disk drives are the most common type of storage because they're relatively inexpensive and offer huge capacities. However, they also generate both noise and heat. Solid state drives, also known as SSDs, are many times faster than hard disk drives and have no moving parts to wear out, but typically offer less capacity for the same price.)
- Maximum Read Speed: 3500 megabytes per second (The greatest speed at which the device can read information; for example, opening files.)
- Maximum Write Speed: 3300 megabytes per second (The greatest speed at which the device can write information; for example, saving files.)
- Form Factor: M.2 2280
- Interface(s): PCIe Gen 3 x4 (Refers to the types of connections that devices use to interact and communicate with each other.)

- Cache Buffer Size: 1 megabytes (The data capacity of the cache buffer (or disk buffer) that acts as temporary memory for the drive. The cache holds the most recently and frequently used data to save the drive the extra step of pulling it from permanent storage every time it's needed, which helps increase the drive's overall speed.)
- NAND Flash Memory Type: MLC (Single Level Cell (SLC) stores 1 bit of data per memory cell; Multi Level Cell (MLC) stores 2 bits per cell, Triple Level Cell (TLC) 3 bits, and Quad Level Cell (QLC) 4 bits. Vertical NAND (V-NAND) or 3D NAND stores more data by layering cells vertically. Similarly, there are 3D MLC, 3D TLC and 3D QLC stacked cells.)

Paid less for brand new.
When I received this item in the mail; it came in its original box/packaging and instructions. After close inspection it looks brand new and unused. Shortly after installing the ssd i had to download the Samsung Magician software to ensure that all drivers are installed to my laptop. The Samsung evo plus 1tb works great, fast and is reliable. Installed this ssd 3 months ago and there is no sign of degrading or issues with this ssd. I would recommend buying refurbished again especially with Samsung ssds.

Definitely recommend
I was wary about buying a refurbished nvme ssd but didn't hesitate because I could buy a geek squad warranty with it so if anything went bad I could replace it or use the amount I paid for it and buy brand new, I love best buys geek squad warranty. I posted pictures of my built gaming pc comparing my first initial install 980 pro nvme to the refurbished 970 pro nvme of power on count/hours. So basically the refurbished 970 pro was brand new, I didn't keep track when I bought it to expand my hard drive memory as my 980 pro got full. Just for curiosity I downloaded Crystaldiskinfo to take a look at the refurbished 970 pro before I wrote this review and was amazed, I installed the 970 pro same day I bought it
