    This ssd is for my fps games such as call of duty where fast load times are important, that being said this is 1000x faster than any spinning hard drive !

    I was a bit skeptical that this SSD would work as well as the HDD I have used for 5 years in my Dell PC, but it loads much faster, which is the reason I decided to go to SSD. I believe it will last longer too, since there is not spinning disk and drive to wear out. I wanted to catch the HDD before it "bit the dust", since I understand that all HDD's will after several years. I seem to have accomplished that. I still have my HDD in case the SSD goes bad, but I don't expect that to happen. So, my review is that "it works well, and loads much faster". Glad it installed the Samsung SSD.

    Upgraded my standard HD to the Samsung 860 EVO. My Windows boot time went from over 4 minutes to just over 20 seconds (with exact same disk image). Couldn’t be happier.

    I've only used samsung ssd's so I can't say how it compares to other manufacturers. I never have a problem with them. Don't forget to buy a SATA cable because!

    I upgraded my 2011 Dell XPS 8600 and the boot time is now way under 30 seconds. Cloning the old hard drive was a piece of cake and I was up and running quickly.

    You really don't need to have extra reviews for this kinda of products. Whoever doesn't use SSD and considers Samsung or any of the other major brands is just wrong. Perfect performance.

    I picked this up as an experiment to revive my 2012 MacBook pro and it did the job. With 16gb of ram and SSD upgrade, the laptop tremendously reduced on load times.

    Geek Squad replaced the hard drive on my laptop and it’s like having a new computer for a much lower price. Works great and Geek service is superb!

    Solid 2.5 inch SSD. What more needs to be said? It may be a little on the pricy side, but it offers great reliability and performance.

    Easy to install. Easy to clone OS with Samsung’s migration software. Magician software also works well to keep you informed about your ssd condition. Make sure you buy a sata cable
