    My first external hard drive

    I had never bought an external drive before because I never needed one, so I did a lot of research before choosing this one. It is simple and effective. I had over 12,000 photos to transfer, so it took some time to upload everything to the drive. My only concern during the transfer was how warm it was getting. However, I am glad to report that it is still working smoothly and handling everything as if I just bought it.

    Nice Upgrade, but not ideal data transfer

    My old hard drive was failing and the Geek Squad replaced it with the new solid state version. This has been working great and is a nice upgrade. The only downside was that I have to completely reorganize my files bc they could only transfer data in a block of individual files, not organized how I had them. I'm still struggling to get them back to being organized how I had them, but I think it will be worth it to have the upgraded hard drive. The techs were great to work with

    This Samsung Solid State Drive is well priced and is great value for the money. It made a world of difference to my computer after installation by the Geek squad. It is fast and reliable

    Bought this drive when a new WD-Blue SSD drive failed. The Samsung drive has a good reputation as being reliable and fast. So far, it has made using the computer it's installed in a much better experience, and I'm not worried about the drive failing -- although I still do back ups.

    This is the fastest SATA drive I've had in my desktop so far. I think this is the 4th one on this motherboard. I would recommend. It's held up well and I've only ever had a problem with 1 Samsung SSD so hopefully that trend continues.

    Excellent product. Replaced my old hard drive with this SSD and my boot up time is nearly non existent. Very easy to install in my laptop (Lenovo Y700) and runs like a dream. Went from a 5-10 min boot time depending on the day to less than 30 seconds.

    This is my second one. Not because the first one failed (it's still going strong), but because another laptop needed an upgrade for a failing hard drive. Easy to install, very fast, and a great buy for the money.

    Light, compact, and easy to use. I highly recommend it, especially for travel. I travel between two locations, each with a desktop. This drive makes it easy to bring my files, pictures, etc., with me without having to put everything in the cloud and depend on faulty internet service.

    I bought this to upgrade an older laptop that was running slow, and now it feels brand new! The 870 EVO is the gold standard for SATA SSDs—reliable, consistent, and easy to install. Shipping from Best Buy was fast and the drive arrived well-packaged.

    I wanted to add some life to my Xbox One X so I upgraded to a SSD. After looking around I decided to use this Samsung SSD. We noticed right away how much faster games loaded, I have 2 Xbox One X devices, 3 Xbox One S, and 5 Xbox One units. I upgraded them all and couldn't be happier. Systems run faster, load quicker and operate much cooler and quieter, Very happy with my purchases,

    This SAMSUNG SSD 870 EVO SATA 2.5" is one of the best SATA SSD drive on the market. I bought it to upgrade an old laptop from a HDD drive. It works perfect, now the laptop perfomance increase a lot. Windows upload in mater of seconds, Microsoft Word, Internet Explorer and games way faster. If you have low performance laptop this is a good way to improve the performance and the battery life increase as well. Ultra Recommend!
