I like Samsung product. This SSD drive is really fast. It loads my Window 10 within 35 seconds. The only bad part is I have to buy a adapter to install in my computer because it is small and it won't fit in the regular compartment inside my computer.

These are probably the best 1TB SSD drives out there. BB is pretty close on pricing. Wish you could find someone interested enough to actually open the locked cabinets. Makes you want to just order it online...

I replaced an older hard drive in my laptop, and this thing now flies!
This solid state drive loads faster, accessing info in the blink of an eye.
It helped make an older laptop practically brand new. I had the Geek Squad swap it out.

Bought this for my desktop build, Samsung makes quality products and this ones no exception. Despite the higher cost, never have had issues with Samsung SSD, boot times are extremely fast. Does the job.

I have an 850 Pro, 850 EVO, and now this 860 EVO all connected in my system as I incrementally add storage over the years. Install was easy and it works flawlessly like my other drives. Fast, reliable performance for an SSD. Exactly what I wanted.

Slim profile of this hard drive makes it easy to place in any PC build.
Saving and moving files to this drive are fast; especially if you're coming from the "older" mechanical hard drives with platters.
Difference is night and day.

I got this drive to replace the hard drive on my new HP laptop. It was easy to install and defiantly makes a difference in boot times and operation time. I have gotten used to the 15 second boot time. If you want to speed up your computer this will help.

I picked up this at my local Best Buy store on sale.
Added to my Cyberpower PC which already came with 1 TB SSD but this one adds another TB for my 4K video rendering with XSplit and Adobe Premier Pro CC.
These guys at Best Buy are very friendly.

I have used the 850/860 EVO series SSDs for several years and outside of older BIOS that don't handle any SSDs correctly they have worked flawlessly. Definitely worth the few extra dollars compared to the competition for the reliability.

Purchased to be used a 2nd SSD for storing PC games and other data only. Works great right out of the box and recognized by Windows 10 immediately after assigning a new drive letter in Disk Management app.

I got this for my PC to replace a 500gb Samsung 860...this is just as good as my old one. Plug and play. Cloned the old 500g to replace the 1TB and it worked beautifully. I stand by Samsung SSDs.

I changed it with the old SSD I had been using for years. The thin and light body, comparing to 5yo drive surprised me. The drive works as advertised, no problems with the bios nor any OSes. The continuous write rate is around 380 MB/s.

I purchased this to replace the HDD in my wife's laptop, and so far it's working like a dream. It may not be the speed of an m.2 NVMe drive, but at the price I paid, it was a steal. Samsung has once again proven itself to me.

I replaced my 500 GB ssd with the 860 EVO 1 TB about 6 weeks ago and it has been working great from the beginning. The Samsung software that came with the EVO also made migrating the files from the old ssd to the new ssd very easy. Very satisfied.

Much faster than HDD's and only slightly slower than NVMe / m.2 drives. Use it for the majority of the storage needs like photos/documents/music and reserve NVMe / m.2 drives for the operating system and games that have loading screens.
