Replaced a HDD drive on a new Dell laptop I purchased in December 2018. Well worth the cost. Much faster boot ups, and read/writes. Much cheaper to upgrade to this drive than purchase with it pre-installed (you loose other features on the laptop if you order SSD pre-installed, go figure).

Bought this for my main laptop which had 250GB ssd and 1 TB mechanical Hard disk. I removed the 1 tb hdd and installed the new 1 tb ssd. The rest is out of this world. Blazing speed resulting in apps and games running faster. It is like having a new laptop.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this, best purchase for my pc that I ever made. My pc is super fast, runs like it's brand new. I highly recommend going with a solid state drive. In fact it's so great that my husband had the exact same one installed in his pc.

I replaced a conventional hard drive woth this SSD and a 32 gig msata with a 500 gig msata. The improvement is incalculable incredible. Both old drive went bad, suspect from the conventional one going bad and placing massive heat inside. Would reccomend these Samsung SSD drive.

Was able to sang this on sale at two different times, and I'm extremely happy with the size and overall experience with these drives. Writing speeds are excellent, I don't see any dips in performance in loading for games or plugins for music programs.

I use portable hard drives for my music. I start replacing the internal drives with the Samsung solid-state. They are proving to be so much faster while being so much lighter. And they are being sold at such a great price. This is my second Samsung ssd purchase and will be buying more.

I was upgrading my laptop from a 500MB regular drive to solid state. This drive is awesome! My laptop boots up so fast it's insane. This was the best upgrade I have ever done. Everyone says the Samsung drives are the most reliable. The cost was the same as others so why not get the best!

Yes, it's a little more expensive than other brands but hey, if you have precious data to store, it's better to invest a little more and get one of the best SSD. I used it to change the old hard drive from a laptop and boot speed increased substantially, it's like new all over again!

Did a lot of research before purchasing this drive. Wanted at least 1TB of storage on a fast SSD drive. This fit the bill perfectly, Samsung has great support just in case something goes wrong but I don't expect that to happen. Simple plug and play and the drive is lightning fast.

Works perfectly! I had to reinstall windows and thought I'd upgrade from the traditional HDD while I was at it. My computer feels brand new again. Great drive, great value. This is my 2nd drive for a 2nd computer. Both times have been great.

Needed to upgrade my 500GB hard drive in my laptop. Read reviews about this devices performance/cost per GB.
Went ahead and purchased it, haven't looked back since. Insane speeds compared to stand hard drive disks. No noise or vibrations due to no moving parts. Highly recommend

Fast and easy to install. If upgrading from an older style mechanical hard drive, download the free Samsung software to clone the drive and then remove the old drive and you're all set. Boot time went from several minutes to about 15-20 seconds.

Anytime I can afford a extra SSD to throw in my rig I take it. These things are easy to install and Samsung Magician is fairly easy to use. If you want your PC to fire up instantly than these are priceless. Once you go SSD you never go bacl.

Will buy Samsung SSD’s all day long. This is my third one. I buy them for my pc’s and to help upgrade friends pc’s. The prices are getting so much better. Upgrading to an SSD put a breathe of new life in my 2012 MacBook Pro. You won’t regret it.

Awesome... it was used to put in a PS Pro 4-device. The PS4P now runs way faster & has made it way more efficient. It definitely fixed the problem & was the best decision I could have made to fix the PS4 it is like Brand New now. They no-longer make PS4 Pro-devices anymore so it was way cheaper than having to trade it in for a refurbished one, or/verses buying the next level up which is the New PS-5. I highly recommend anybody who has a PS4/Pro if you are having problems with the hard drive get this Samsung hard drive to fix/replace the old one. It was easy to take out the old hard drive & replace it back in with the new Samsung Drive. Just make sure you look up on U-Tube videos on how to take out the hard drive properly & how to install it back in properly First before proceeding in doing anything else. Thumbs up!! ☆☆☆☆

Very good equipment, easy to configure and use. I recommend it. Windows 10 loads so much faster now and I use it for all my programs and havent had any issues because I dont have a lot of demanding programs anyway and using the old hard drive for storage.

I own 3 of these. It's a fantastic hard drive. It really is. I have almost zero complaints and continue to do fine with it. Fast, reliable, easy to install. Really worth every penny.
Can't say much else. If you want an SSD this is my default go to.

Excellent drive, blazing fast. It makes my 8 year old HP Core i5 Win7 laptop run like a new computer. I used Samsung's free (download) software to clone my old drive to the new one. It took about 6 hours, but went smoothly. Very happy.
