    If it's any perspective I paid $250 for half this much storage in an SSD in 2016. Price is great and works as intended.

    This Samsung 860 EVO is a top rated drive according to my research, I have purchased two of these and backed up (Cloned) the operating systems on my Laptop and desktop ... I have been amazed by the speed of these drives !! Both of my Computers have NVME drives and that I believe is faster ... but I an happy with the two Samsung drives. I backed up 200 or so full length movies to the one in my laptop ... incredibly fast !!

    Not much to say that isn't already known. Bought this ssd to expand an HP Pavillion Gaming Desktop that I only had 512 ssd Nvm stick factory. Linked directly to the existing expansion port and cables with no issues. I mostly use the computer for graphic design, running Adobe programs and saving hundreds of large files in several formats that have to be at the ready. No problems at all and love the new universe of space I have!

    Why I only buy Samsung SSDs

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

    While most SSDs are fast, they do not all come with free migration software. The Samsung SSDs consistently rate at the top of the speed charts and also come with an amazingly simple piece of software that lets you migrate your OS and all of the files over to the new SSD. I have used this software at least 10 times on different SSDs/computers and have never had a single problem. For this reason, I always tell people if the just pickup the latest Samsung EVO series they will be good to go.

    I frequently use 120Gb and 240Gb SSD drives to upgrade my clients, and the performance increase is great. Recently however, a client needed their Medical XRAY system upgraded, because the 500GB HD was running out of space. I purchased this 860 EVO 1TB drive, and WOW. With 42GB Buffer (the bigger the drive, the bigger the buffer) the response time for the system has dropped drastically. This system used to be a bottleneck on their network, when someone needed to retrieve xrays, no longer.

    You cannot go wrong with Samsung. This was a replacement drive for a failed Seagate SATA drive on a Dell AIO box which was grinding and not booting. It was much smaller than the cavity but a little velcro will keep it in place. Although at present the machine only has Win 10 Pro and the timed boot up is 15-20 seconds even with the BIOS. My main desktop has a similar drive and with many more programs, it boots in 40 secs. So far, it's a winner!
