Very pleased with this drive. Feel the price was very reasonable and the difference in my laptop is outstanding. I had to replace the hard drive which came with my HP because it was taking hardware errors. Because of this my PC had become very slow with constant hang-ups and getting progressively worse. It was to be expected that the speed of the PC would be like night and day with the new drive. However, I remember what my laptop was like when it was brand new and the speed difference with this SS drive is still dramatically faster. I would definitely recommend this drive.

The Geek Squad suggested these drives after I mentioned my old machines were very slow. They replaced the old 1T hard drives in my laptop and my desktop (both are 2014 HP Envy i7 12mb RAM 1T hard drives) with these 512 Samsung SSD drives. It was the best $50 investment (per drive). Both machines are so much faster and even after backing up the data from these machines, about half of the 512 SSD drives capacity is still unused & available. Geek Squad service agreements are well worth the money too! $200 per year plan saved me $600 in labor so far! Impressed!

Nice secondary drive in a new PC. Gives me a place for data that's not on the primary NVMe drive.

My HP laptop is 9 years old and compared to my desktop PC takes forever to start up and to open / close programs. About 15 months ago I upgraded the HDD in my PC with a Samsung EVO 860 and the PC became a rocket so I recently decided to replace the old slow HDD in my laptop with an EVO 870. What a difference. Used to take about 2 minutes for windows and all startup programs to boot. Now it takes about 2 seconds for the windows logo to display and about 23 seconds for all to boot up. I had reward points that paid for half the cost so the transaction was well worth the money.

PC hard drive was damaged by an electrical surge beyond any recovery. Choose to purchase a new PC for more storage, faster speed, etc. The GeekSquad advisor suggested a new hard drive for my older PC, as that was all that was damaged. I now have a backup PC for a minor investment.

When I purchased my Samsung 7 Spin Notebook 5 years ago I had the option of installing an SSD drive and I didn't. What a mistake that was. The original HD was slow with multiple problems through the years and finally died recently. I had this SSD installed and what a difference! Much faster, smooth running and I don't have to defragment and all that gobble-d-gook. Like I said, better late than never.

Its a samsung, what more can one say? Faster than the 860Evo. Solid. Samsung has never failed on me.
1 John 3:7 Little children, let no one deceive you. He who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous. 8 He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil. 9 Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God.

Solid HDD! I got the 500GB version, and let me tell you, this beats the SanDisk version just because of the included software. It makes it effortless to transfer old data from a previous drive, and simple to install a fresh OS as well. It's a speedy drive, too. My previous Samsung SSD is 7 years old and still runs like new. This one went into a new laptop. I recommend this 100% over other brands!
