Excellent SSD
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Samsung is known to make the best SSDs for the price and this one is no exception. It is very fast compared to mechanical hard drives, about 4x faster. But you have to realize it is still using the SATA ports which is limited to 600mb/s. If you want faster performance, you need a M.2 NVMe SSD which is rated for up to 4000mb/s, but you must have a compatible PC as well as double the money.

Excellent SSD
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was having serious trouble with the 6 year old disk drives in my Dell desktop. Was getting error messages like it can't find the operating system. After hours of unsuccessful troubleshooting, and interested in better performance, I had the Geek Squad install the Samsung SSD. It works great and has noticeably quicker performance. I am very pleased with the Samsung SSD.

Brought life back to my 20 year old HP laptop
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had used this Samsung 860 EVO SSD 500GB to replace my aging 2.5 hard drive in my 20 year old HP laptop. It was very easy to replace it using my own adapter and Samsung's Data Migration app to clone the old hard drive in order to move all the stuff to the new SSD. I was very much pleased with it. Now my old laptop can boot and load faster now than it was before.

Great recommendation by Geek Squad!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The standard hard drive in my 3-yr old ASUS laptop tested bad after some performance problems. Geek Squad recommended using the 500 GB Samsung SSD Which was on sale. The old one was 1 terabyte but I really didn’t need that much storage. It is so much faster booting up, opening files, etc. and has no moving parts so I know it will last. I am so pleased and special thanks to the Geek Squad.
