    This is the best upgrade you can do to a laptop. Boot times went from 35 seconds to eight seconds. Also helped with battery life.

    I’m running 4 of these in RAID0 for a 2TB main drive. Have all been working flawlessly for months now. Incredibly fast.

    I use this drive as a boot drive for Windows 10. System boots in 15 seconds on stop and start, and 30 seconds a restart.

    A must for any computer. Turbocharge your modern computer or put new life to a older one. Works best with computers that have at least a i5 or equivalent AMD. Windows loads in seconds. Apps open 10X faster. Easy install Samsung Quality. This was installed in a older i7 2620 laptop and breathed new life to it. The hard drive was cringingly slow and this as a boot drive breathed new life to it. Windows now loads in within 5 sec (to password screen) after seeing the Windows logo.

    This SSD Drive went into an older model laptop. The laptop is now 3 to 4 time faster than with a regular SATA drive installed.

    It's a Samsung. What else do I need to say.

    This is the second one I have purchased in the past three months. I have been around and worked on computers for quite a while. I have found Samsung to be a trust worthy well-made product. This SD drive is no exception. The cloning software for replacing the Local Disk (C:) worked well as expected. Read and Wright speeds are real close to advertised estimates. Price was right when the store matched Amazon. This has given new life to two older Asus laptops. I’m a happy camper on this one.
