    Solid everyday SSD for older PCs

    It's nowhere near as fast as a modern NVME disk, but if you have an older PC what only has SATA, this will make it much, much faster than a spinning disk.

    Got this as a secondary storage device for my computer. For the price it works great as a secondary storage for me with a M.2 NVME being my main storage.

    Been installing these bad boys to all of the computers I have been presented with "Slowness" issues. My wife's laptop has had one since 2011 and they keep running like a champ.

    Changed my PC hard drive for an SSD drive. Boot times decreased by about 60-70%. The downloadable cloning software from Samsung makes changing hard drives simple and quick.

    Good SSD for the price. As a previous owner of Samsung 850 and 850 PRO SSD's, Samsung products has not let me down yet. We'll see what the 860 series brings to the table. So far so good.

    The Ssd works great however you need your own cables bc none are included in it. The next few things are the issues with the software when you install the magic tool software for the ssd make sure it’s updated then you have to install the cloning software from a different part of the Samsung website. But overall when I switched windows to the ssd my computer speed has been tremendously faster then before to where it boots up in 15 seconds or less with everything already open from the background that usually slows down the pc.

    This SSD worked great in the desktop I replaced the very slow, failing factory hard disk drive. 10-year-old desktop now runs faster than when it was new.
