    I bought a used server-grade Dell Precision T 3500. Threw out the old HD and replaced it with this SSD. Installed Windows 10 and all the software I need. This thing is amazingly fast.

    Can't go wrong with Samsung. I've been using Samsung SSDs for years now in several computers at home, work, and family computers. They are fast and reliable, no issues!

    Used this on a 2011 MacBook Pro to help with faster boot speeds and more read speeds. I feel like I have a new laptop. I added 16 GBs of ram as well. Great buy!

    This is a good SSD for more storage, upgrading a laptop, or making your game console faster. When it comes to read and write speeds, you can't beat Samsung's, especially for the EVO brand.

    Bought a few more years out of an aging laptop - Dropped this in, replacing the original hard drive. Boots in under 30 seconds, whereas before it would take > 2 minutes. Well worth it!

    The Samsung 860 EVO 500GB SSD is an excellent hard drive for a very competitive price. I highly recommend it for quality and price. Makes an older pc run like a new one.

    The Samsung 860 Evo ssd literally quadrupled my 2017 Dell Inspiron 17 5000 series speed. start up is instant. It was even worth the downgrade from 1 terabyte.

    Just like the rest of the EVO line up Samsungs quality and warranty are one of the best to deal with. For the price it was worth the upgrade. Perfect speed for what I use it for

    I added this drive to my 3-year old Dell XPS as I was increasingly frustrated with the boot speed. The computer boots instantly and Office 365 fully starts in less than 2 seconds.
