    Replaced my mechanical hard drives on 2 machines. On the Windows 7 desktop, it reduced boot time from annoying to under a minute. On the Windows 10 laptop, WOW! Everything runs Fast: Boot, programs, downloads. It removes the ‘bottle-neck’ when running Windows 10.

    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.

    Super fast honestly. Although I’m coming from a hard drive. what can you expect from and Samsung Evo. Speed that’s what! Boot time is literally non existent. All my apps load extremely fast and I love just knowing I have this in my computer for fast file movement.

    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!! ☆☆☆☆

    Not only was it easy to install but Samsung Data Migration software made it a breeze to clone everything from my HDD. Definitely notice a difference in boot up speed and more. I'm sure I will be getting a second one of these or upgrading to a 2 TB at some point in the future.

    Needed some additional storage for my gaming PC to free up my primary drive. This is a simple easy to install solution. Great tools from Samsung too. Note: This does not come with cables. Either make sure you have spares or buy one. Personally I think Samsung should provide one.

    Best SSD for your PS4 Pro

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I remember when a 1tb SSD used to cost over a thousand dollars...now I have this one which cost only $160! It's lightning-fast SATA 3, which the PS4 Pro takes advantage of (the original PS4 didn't). If you're going from the very slow stock HD that came with your system, this will be like the first time you got an SSD in your PC! However, I got this to replace the hybrid Firecuda SSHD I had in my console after Sony allowed us to move our games onto USB drives. This drive is actually not that much faster than the SSHD. It really only shaves off a few seconds here & there. If you need more than 1tb, you should probably go with a 2tb SSHD which is about half the price. But if you can get by with just 1tb, then absolutely get this!

    After about a month of owning this SSD and it being in my home computer I couldn't be happier. It's working great, is super fast, and I have had no reliability problems (I don't really expect to have any either as my other Samsung ssds have never failed). All around great product!

    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.

    Got this drive to replace a failed seagate drive that was in one of my macbook pros. It was a pretty quick and easy install with zero issues providing me with a very noticable increase in speed. Loving it so far and recommend it to anyone looking to upgrade their hard drive.

    Dependable Fast Access Drive.

    Hello, I purchased this Samsung Solid State drive to replace an old drive in my laptop. And the software that it comes with was awesome. I hooked it up to a drive duplicator and ran the software to replicate my old drive. It was also very easy to install in my laptop. It increased the drive access speed of my laptop to almost three times as fast as it used to take to access the information on my old drive. I am very pleased with the performance of this drive and there is no lag when accessing your programs and data stored on the SSD. Since the SSD came out there is only one make that I trust with my data and that is Samsung period. So if you are looking for a very dependable drive to speed up the performance of their old computer I suggest a Samsung SSD fo their project.

    Great SSD, Samsung Drive never failed me. I have been using multiple different SSD over years and this one remains the most reliable one. I stored all of my important data on this one and installed games or other stuffs on the other ones.

    After reading the reviews and the information I decided to not only buy 1 but 2 of these 1tb solid state drives which fit perfectly in the aurora 7 desktop from dell. 2 tb of extra space for that killer game that just needs a county size back yard. Best purchase of the year!!

    Amazing SSD. Loads everything right up. Big upgrade if you are coming from a hard disk drive. If you were thinking about upgrading now is the best time especially with all the holiday sales and the prices of the SSD coming to a low from what they used to be.

    Needed more storage for my games. I figured 1Tb would be good. So far it has worked very well. Great speed. I've already filled it to the brim. Might need another. Got it on sale which is great. Nice addition if you need fast storage.

    The price was great, the performance is awesome. I would guess that my Windows 10 system now boots in 1/10th the time it did previously. Opening a folder full of photos now takes no time at all for the thumbnails to refresh. Should have done this upgrade a few months ago!
