    I compare this to the old school SATA drive III to SSD drives first when I do a clean install and reinstall the operating system, apps, drivers, and updates. As a result, it's a huge difference for 7 seconds of shutdown time and 10 second seconds for the shutdown time and loading time and clicking the apps is a huge difference than the old school SATA which runs on spindles and when it's starting to go broke it clicks for spindles unlike the SSD it's quiet and fast I'm happy to have Samsung EVO 860 it's like a jet when it starts

    You just can't go wrong with the Samsung line of SSDs. They're reliable, fast and the magician software keeps the drives updated and insures you know the status of the drives.

    I upgraded the current SSD in my MacBook Pro with this drive. In day-to-day operations it feels about as fast as the PNY SSD it replaced. Moving Large files on drive is relatively quick, as is moving large folders with multiple files. All-in-all I am pretty satisfied, and would probably spend the extra money for this drive (when it is on sale). MBP Specs: 13", i7, 8 GB Ram, 1 TB SSD

    Easy to install. PC boots up in seconds. -Samsung no longer offers their software CD but you can download their software online. Need their software to clone your old drive.

    Just bought this and installed myself into my MacBook Pro mid 2012. Installation was easy. Reinstalling the OS was a bit challenging for me, but I was finally able to find the link on Apple’s site to upgrade the original Maverick OS to Sierra. I’m hoping I’ll get the normal updates back to Catalina before I did the replacement. I was opening iMovie and other applications and went from 45 seconds to minute to now seconds! The upgrade so far has been well worth it and to have gotten this SSD on sale made it even a better purchase.
