    Upgrading from a 7200rpm drive drastically improved the boot up time and makes loading games much faster. League of Legends, Overwatch, and Paragon loaded incredibly quickly.

    This SSD literally brought my laptop back to life and gave it steroids! Also, Samsung's Magician app increases performance and optimized my laptop in ways I didn't even know was possible. This SSD is a great and affordable buy.

    Great SSD. This is one of the better solid-state drive's, they're all pretty good but this has one of the fastest read and write speeds and it's reliable. I have not had any bad models yet. This is a good purchase

    my pc crashed and you couldn't recover . . . I purchased the new hard drive on the spot after speaking to my son. My understanding is that this drive is exponentially better b/c it has no moving parts and it's much faster.

    Purchased the Samsung SSD to replace a hard drive in an older Toshiba notebook. After upgrading from XP to Win 7, I found that the speed of boot up and program loading was getting slower as I added more programs. After installing the Samsung SSD I found the start up to be extremely fast (it was like getting a new faster computer). I encountered no problems cloning the hard drive contents onto the new SSD using the program provided by Samsung with the purchase. Other SSD's do not include cloning software and require you to either purchase or find freeware on the internet.

    Expensive but awesome SSD. Loads my games faster by at least 10 seconds or more. Would be even better if the PS4 PRO actually supported Sata III fully but either way, one of the best, if not the best SSD on the market.
