    This has exceeded all my expectations. I almost went with another brand until I read the reviews about it. Im so happy I went with this one. All the reviews I read about this are true. I am not disappointed.

    Purchased this SSD as a replacement for the 1 TB drive that came in my new laptop. Although only half the capacity of the original drive the speed and performance makes up for it. 500 GB is still a lot of storage. If I need more I'll use external drives.

    I purchased a Samsung 500 Gbyte SSD to replace a failing C: drive. My son installed and also upgraded to Windows 10. It has resulted in better performance for the Windows operating system and for local stoage of my applications and frequently used files.

    I've tried several brands of SSDs including Intel, Toshiba, Samsung, Sandisk, and other. This Samsung SSD is the best performing and most reliable one I've used, and worth the small price premium. The warranty is also better than most manufacturers.

    `These Samsung SSD's save plenty of time for you by speeding up a laptop. Purchase an inexpensive laptop, switch out the slow drive for an SSD and you just added lots of speed to the low-priced laptop, and still kept the price low,

    The instructions and provided cloning software made the transition to SSD smooth and flawless. The process will require a usb laptop drive enclosure. I now have 3 SSDs. They have made huge improvement in my computers performance.

    This drive has made my laptop blazingly fast! The included software, once updated, provides an easy way to transfer all the contents of the old hard drive and the rest of the process is easy. I only wish I had done this a long time ago.

    I replaced my 2011 MacBook Pro HD with a Crucial SSD and it just stopped working after 3 months. I took my MacBook to the Apple store and they recommended a Samsung drive so I bought this, replaced it myself and it has been working flawlessly.

    All I can say is that an SSD is one of the least expensive upgrades you can give your PC if you have a HDD. I've had several Sasmung SSDs in all of my computers and they work great, are fast and reliable. Never had an issue with any of them.

    Using a MacBook Pro Mid 2012. It is a new computer after the upgrade. The SSD drive gave a new life to this computer. It runs fast, I mean, really fast. Startup time is half of the time. It can open Word, excel in 2-6 seconds vs 18-30 before.
