Great upgrade

I would recommend this to a friend good drive but a bit expensive
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have bought a number of solid-state drives from Samsung and I was not disappointed when I bought this one. I had initial reservations about the price as it was a little bit more expensive than other SSD's that I had was looking at. Fortunately for me Best Buy had this on sale and I could not resist based on the sale price. The only issue I've had is a lower-than-expected TLC but I've been able to be okay with that

I would recommend this to a friendWorth it
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Definately worth getting over the 128gb for the price. Just be prepared for a pain if you already have an hdd that has over 500gb on it and need transfer just the OS. Took awhile to get a fresh install.
