    I think that's my only complaint is that I had to hunt around on Samsung's website to find their drive cloning software; it didn't come with it or have a link to it in the manual, as far as I could find. It's called "Samsung Magician" for those who may need it. I was upgrading from a 256GB EVO 840 (I think, one level lower in model number) so I wasn't expecting a huge speed improvement, just space. But, there really does seem to be a noticeable difference in my eyes from what I already thought was a pretty fast drive to this one. Really loving it. I was half tempted to go even bigger, but the price per GB ratio is still too rich for my blood at the next size up and I didn't honestly need 1TB. Added bonus of upgrading a drive, now I have a nice fast and tiny USB drive with my old 256GB drive in the mSATA external enclosure I had to buy to facilitate the drive cloning.

    I was not expecting it to be so small as I never opened the bottom of my laptop before to see the small space where it went. That turned out to be easy to do and very easy to install. The drive is very fast and so far very dependable. I'm a happy customer.

    Needed a really good msata ssd for my yoga 2 in one. Factory 128gb just did not cut it. 500gb really performs Samsung makes the best ssd.

    Purchased this hard drive to upgrade a smaller drive in a laptop and the user is very pleased and happy with the speed. The cost was very inexpensive compared to purchasing a new laptop with a larger hard drive.

    I took out my old hard drive for one of these and I have a noticeable increase in startup times and it just runs faster overall.
