Replacing the factory HD with this SSD significantly improved start up time and overall performance of my mid-2010 15” MBP. Very satisfied with the purchase so far.

I thought my laptop was pretty fast, until I installed the Samsung ssd. Now, it's blazingly fast. This was a perfect upgrade for the work that I do and games I play on my laptop.

Was a great speed upgrade for my 10+ year old ABIT motherboard. Also bought a pcie/SATA III interface card for added speed. I would highly recommend this Samsung product.

I was in doubt, if I would buy more memory or change my Macbook Pro , but I don't regret in chosing this drive. Although it's expensive my Mac book works like a new one.

I got this drive on sale to replace the 1 TB hdd in my laptop. As I expected, it was quicker and removed the bottle neck. This is a great drive if you need one this size.

Purchased the Samsung 850 EVO to replace my Crucial M4, which had failed after nearly 4 years of intense use. The 850 EVO is much faster and a great enhancement to my iMac.

This ssd was an upgrade for my Hp laptop. The OEM hard drive was very,very slow (5400 rpm), so i put this ssd in. Now my laptop boots instantly, instead of 1-2 minutes.

Great SSD for people on a budget,. Very similar performance as big brother. If the better warranty and slight increase in speed are that important look for the 850 Pro.

Install was easy. I advise making your recovery drive before cloning your drive to the SSD (I am using Windows 10 Home OS). I also have an external SATA cradle to USB that I used to clone my original drive.
After cloning, power off your computer and replace your original drive with the SSD. Power on and use the software to configure your OS for the drive.
If your computer has any software that parks your drive when subjected to rough handling, de-install it as it is no longer required with a SSD drive. Also, NEVER defrag your SSD drive.
I love how fast my laptop is now with my new Samsung 850 EVO SSD!
