This drive is about a fast as you'll be able to get using a sata cable, so it's great for systems that don't have free pci-e slots. Installing is easy, especially with win 11.

Excellent 2TB SSD. My computer used to take minutes to boot up and for apps to start working on my desktop. Now, I shut it down, turn it back on and can play YouTube videos in a matter of only about 30 seconds . It's super fast. I know that NVMe SSDs are faster, but those overheat in a lot of situations, this one is cooler but still fast. And it's not on your motherboard and doesn't need a heatsink. It's a good trade off imo.
Also, this thing is super quiet and doesn't move around in your PC at all (no moving parts, duh!). Everything is faster (even transferring files) and quieter in my PC now. BIG THUMBS UP! I highly recommend this Samsung 870 EVO 2.5" SSD! Trust me, you won't regret buying it, I wish I had earlier.

Quick and reliable drive for internal storage without any heat problems and 100% silent. The Samsung 870 EVO is far superior to any spinning hard drive.

Always purchased Samsung SSDs for their reliability and hardware. For the prices of SSDs now, these are super affordable and make great storage for putting video, music, steam library. I have owned many Samsung SSDs in the past and have not yet once had one fail.
I am using my Samsung 850 EVO 500gb currently for steam games and this drive as extra storage. My 850 EVO 500gb has 8.1TB written to it and its still going strong.

I’ve been using Samsung SSD’s for quite some time and they rock. They have been the highest rated drives consistently and I’ve never had one fail in any of my music production (DAW) computers. Now that SSD drives are so cheap, why would anyone use anything else and as I mentioned, Samsung SSD’s are always rated at the top of class. No brainer.

Replaced all old spinning Hard Drives on my PS3, PS4, PS4 Pro, and Xbox One X. Since I own 2 Xbox Series X’s, I wanted all my hardware to be pristine/Up to date. Results are amazing, snappy OS, near to no lag, and Games just run smoother and better, worth every Penny to future proof my Gaming Console Library. Hopefully this helps someone for future reference.

I replaced the 3.5 "SATA drive with this Samsung EVO 2TB SSD in all three of my Dell desktop computers. The performance in read/write times is phenomenal! I should have done this sooner. I recommend buying the 3.5 to 2.5 adapter to mount this SSD in your computer. I bought an additional one of these drives to have on hand because they are getting hard to find, and the price keeps going higher.

Easily one of the greatest SSD available. plenty of mounting option, decent price for a 2TB SATA drive, small enough to fit in my SFX Build, and read and write speeds are acceptable. M.2 drives are still king when it comes to speeds but when u need additional storage this is a great option when short on NVME drives.
Greater than expected hyphen does not disappoint a

I recently upgraded my laptop with a new SATA drive, and I'm thoroughly impressed by its performance compared to the previous model I had installed. The difference in speed and reliability is like night and day, making this upgrade well worth it.
The new SATA drive significantly outperforms its predecessor in both read and write speeds. Applications load faster, and file transfers are much smoother and quicker. The drive's enhanced data transfer rate is evident when booting up the system or launching heavy software, which now happens almost instantaneously.
The quality also seems to be better. The drive operates quietly, and its heat management is fantastic, maintaining optimal performance even during extended use. This durability is a big plus, indicating that the drive will last longer and be a reliable part of my system for years to come.

This drive was purchased as an upgrade to a brand new computer that came with only one designated 1TB drive. I wanted a separate designated drive just for documents, videos, pictures, files.
Geek squad installed it in the new computer so that it was setup from the get go.
So far it's been working seamlessly with no problems
Fast enough, reliable, and one of the cheaper SSDs

It might not be the fastest SSD but it sure is reliable and functional. Have grabbed several of these over the years as secondary drives for mass storage and/or streaming/recording dump drives to use for editing. Never had an issue with any of them so far.

I was able to diagnose an issue in my laptop that made it run slow. The price point for the Samsung SSD was fair, and I ordered it for pickup. The whole process was smooth, and I able to repair my old laptop and bring it up to new-laptop speed, which has been amazing. I'm confident with the new SSD, my laptop will run for years.
