Customer Ratings & Reviews

I really like this SSD. It is very fast compared to my old HD. My only complaint is the actual drive space is only 937GB NOT a 1000GB or 1TB. That is significantly less than Samsung represents that you're getting. Other than that it's all good.

Super easy upgrade for old hard drive to a solid state one. Free downloaded migration software from Samsung moves Windows 10 from old to new drive. Only takes 10 seconds now from powering PC on to whatever you want to do. I am going to upgrade another PC now that I know how easy it is.

This is an upgrade from the 500 GB model for me that I grabbed on sale. It works great if you have an older device that doesn't support NVMe. My only complaint is that manufacturers don't know what a gigabyte is, or that they do know but drink the marketing Kool-Aid.

I am replacing the failing hard drive in my laptop with this Samsung -860 EVO 1TB SSD. The Samsung software to transfer files including the operating system and all the installed software from the existing laptop to this new SSD makes the process much easier to do.

im currently using an nvme drive as my boot but if i didn't have one i would use this one. im currently using it to keep backups between 2 ssds and the write speeds make it so painless. i really like the design too it works well with my black pc build

Grabbed 2 of these to setup a raid configuration on my gaming rig. major, MAJOR improvement over the old mechanical drive the games were stored on. Also, the non-game apps I run off this drive have shown a significant increase in speed of operation and loading.

Compared to my 5 year old 1 TB hard drive, this SSD boots fast, runs fast for operations. I think it runs cooler than the HD. Cloning software from Samsung works, even for very large amounts of programs and data. Everything in its place so far.

If you have never tried a SSD drive you will be in for a treat. I have one of the first Samsung SSD's... it was over $400 for 256gb, so this is considered cheap. You will love it... I recommend doing a clean install, allot of work, but getting everything fresh is the best advise I have.

I transferred my windows os to this hard drive and boots up almost instantly. Took 4 minutes off my startup time. Just beware if you are transferring your windows os to this drive you will have most likely have to call Microsoft for a new activation key.

Has helped to speed up my Dell XPS desk-top cpu. Hope it can add some life to a good machine. Geek squad saved me the time installing it and just need to sort things out better for backing up my important data. Time will tell...Like it so far!

Fast and roomy enough at a price point that makes sense to me. Son had 512G SSD but was running out of room. Not any more, and it's faster than the older model. At a place where spinning disks are too slow, and I don't need the huge capacities.

The hard drive made a night – and – day difference in my old Mac mini. Where it took approximately three minutes for it to start up now it takes 20 to 25 seconds. Highly recommend it especially for anyone who can still upgrade to an SSD drive!

I replaced the older style platter HD in my 4 year old laptop and it's like new again. Boot up speed is unbelievable fast now. I just cloned the old drive onto this new one and now I have twice the capacity of the older 500 GB drive plus it I get longer lasting battery power.

I purchased this SSD to replace a 1 TB hard drive in a 2012 IMac. The IMac had become incredibly slow. Paid $149.00 for the drive, and $125.00 to mirror the old one and install it. It now runs like a new ultra fast machine, and I saved around $1,700 by not buying a new IMac.

This is a fast TLC ssd drive . Fast read and write speeds. This not an nvme drive. It will provide a noticeable speed boost over a standard spinning HD. Definitely improve performance on my laptop. Windows 10 boots faster too. A 5 year warranty too.

This SSD has brought me to a high realm of being. No longer am I able to wait for anything to load more than mere seconds. The land of mortals wastes your time every day, but in fact, this item will ensure saved time on all uses.

Plugged it in using my USB adapter to test it and the computer instantly recognized it (through disk management). I just installed it into my computer and it has worked great so far! I have bought a couple of these to upgrade from HDD to SSD.

Simply the best reasonably priced drive in this configuration. WD blue was competitive until their June 2020 manufacturing dates. They are relabeled Sandisk and slower than the April 2020 WD Blue. and run 10% hotter. Avoid the mess... buy a Samsung !

I have previously purchased the Samsung SSD in both the 250GB and the 500GB for other computers and very pleased with their performance. When the 1TB SSD went on sale, I couldn't pass it up to upgrade my current computer. At this price, my son also upgraded his computer as well.

We have purchased several of these drives to replace our old slow hard drives in our work computers. We can start our computers up and be on the internet in around 10-15 seconds. The cloning software from Samsung also makes the transition as smooth as possible.
