    This is without a doubt, the best bang for your buck SSD that is out there right now. You will be hard pressed to find another SSD with this performance in this price range.

    Samsungs cloning software works great compared to some of the competition. The samsung drives are proven and just work. We have over 10 of these running in our office!

    I work for an IT company that does many hard drive upgrades. We have tested many different SSDs and have consistently come back to Samsung. They have very reliable hard drives.

    Easy to install. So far so good Only after sometime I would know whether this is really a good product or not. Hoping that retrieval time remains same and Data saved are not lost.

    As always Samsung delivers a great drive! The VNAND memory is fast & best in the industry. 5 year warranty that you can't beat! Grab these when on sale, they are pricey.

    I bought two of these drives for a SATA data server project I am working on and so far so good. Longevity will be the real question but for now I am happy with my purchase.

    Bought 2 because it was a great deal! Gave one to the rents and kept the other one to use as a monitor. It's a tad large for a monitor but for the price, I'll survive!

    I was having issues with my computer boot up. With the SSD, it is much quicker. I have put similar drives in my two kids computers since they game a lot. They love it.

    When it comes to SSDs, I only trust Samsung and Intel. Samsung is more expensive, but I'd rather pay a little more now than deal with potential headaches down the road.
