    Very fast transfer speeds, used as external drive on a Mac, transferred files in GB sizes took literally less than 10 seconds. It was amazing. I also like the lightweight portability. Very happy with this drive.

    I bought this as a replacement for an SSD that went bad (PNY). It works perfectly. For those who use SSD's as a primary drive, store all of your critical files on a secondary drive and use the SSD for only your OS. When they fail, they fail without warning.

    When your computer C: drive fails, hopefully you can find a store with the products you need in stock and at a good price. Best Buy provided both of those for me when I needed it most. I got my computer back up and running the same day....

    Desperately wanted to upgrade to SSD after last drive died. This one included cloning software to move my whole partition over without having to reinstall anything except AV software. Would definitely recommend and buy more!!

    Samsung has a great SSD product with a great price. The thing I like most about it, is the Data Migration process. Once it is done and the drive is swapped it works perfectly. I have done dozens of swaps, and never had an issue.

    Great performance, slightly faster read/write speeds than similar SSDs (PNY/Sandisk), but Samsung has better overall quality and reliability. Can't go wrong with this drive , especially if you are replacing a traditional HDD.
