    Computer Knowledge Level: 2.5-3/5 Bought for more game storage Bought while on sale I’ve installed a SSD before, I had trouble getting this one to be recognized by my computer. It saw it but I couldn’t access it. Let’s just assume I messed up, my friend was able to help me get my computer to assign a drive to the SSD and worked. Outside from the initial trouble, it has worked well.

    This is the gold standard. My HDD in my ASUS all -in-one crashed. Opening the PC was hairy but the SSD installation was a breeze. Did a clean install of the OS, reloaded my apps, and transferred my files from a backup. I have substantial improvements in performance booting up, loading apps, and in using piggish apps like photoshop. Should have done it a long time ago.

    I bought this and most common people don't forget to set a partition and give the drive a letter otherwise it won't read in your computer. This SSD is great I play all my big games on it and it runs smooth with no fps drop or any of that only regret I have is wish I had bought the bigger sized one since I'm a hardcore gamer but in time I will probably swap out for a bigger Samsung SSD this one is amazing.

    Grabbed one of these to swap out my old 128GB SSD boot drive while the Black Friday sales we're going on. 0 complaints here, a quick backup and reformat everything is running great. Benchmarked at advertised speeds and with the space I was able to tear my 1tb primary storage HDD out and put everything on here instead. With the current pricing and durability of SSDs, you'd have to be insane to not use one over a HDD.

    These have always been the fastest drives. Easy cloning software from Samsung Site. Best operation when maintained with Samsung Magician software. The only trouble I run into with these drives is when I decide to Secure Erase. The drives have been known to lock up and resetting isn't always easy. So if you intend on installing and using to its life cycle end, then this drive is an excellent choice.
