    Samsung - 870 EVO 500GB Internal SSD SATA

    The drive seems to be working really well now, and has gained me speed on my old laptop for sure, but the cloning process was not fun. First of all, the samsung software was not on the drive, I had to download it separately. Then, it only allowed me to clone 3 of my partitions. Then when I physically swapped the drives, the machine would not boot. I had to then re swap the drives, re clone the c drive, using different software, and later, the remaining partitions. It worked fine this time, but the whole process took me like 12 hours.

    Woks great drastically improved my loading speeds, it may be a small gb wise but pair it with a external hard drive. You practically have no load times and improved my ps4 pro pretty well.

    I always buy Samsung EVO SD drives, because there VERY reliable! To me, there rock solid, and fast enough for my needs. I experimented with other brands, but to me, Samsung has always prevailed.

    Had one side of an unraid cache pool die, very old ssd sata drive and needed a replacement quickly. Not only was this drive cheaper but it would arrive much quicker than the "river" name online store without paying a yearly fee. Yeah learned something today!

    My wife's computer is a few years old and has a traditional HDD. The computer hardware is still ok, but after I had bought myself a new computer and experienced the performance of a SSD I knew I had to swap her drive out ASAP. She had always said her PC was fine and didn't need the upgrade, but I wouldn't have that. I looked over a few different drives prior to the Samsung, but I mean. I own so many Samsung products and haven't had an issue with any. I looked up reviews online and all looked well. I purchased the drive and cable needed for the data clone transfer. The drive came with its own software for the clone and it worked well. About an hour for the copy and I was able to take the laptop case apart easily enough and make the switch. Boot up went well. Much faster. After the initial boot, I ran some benchmarking and boy was it a huge difference. After she used the computer the following day, even she said it was a massive difference and thanked me for the insight. Good buy for sure.

    saved an older laptop that had died. runs like new and boots in a flash. Too bad the lid screen wont work anymore but we just use it connected to a TV and stream and browse. would have liked to get 256g but none in stock I will likely get a couple more to improve older desktops.

    I really like these SSDs. The nice thing is the free Samsung data migration software that can be used to clone your old drive to this one. Very simple interface that will walk you right through the process. The other nice thing about Samsung SSDs is that there is no issue of it kicking out software licenses on Quickbooks products. I have had that issue with Crucial drives where I've had to do some troubleshooting to get those licenses reactivated. Now with the Samsung drives

    I needed a new drive to store movies to playback on my tv. Once this was attached - it was very clear that this was fastet and much more responsive that my previous drive, which broke down. Quality for movie playback did not make too much of a difference, but the reading of files and indexing take no time. The only problem (for my use) is when files get deleted, the remaining space is not properly accounted for. That could be the tv's os conflicting, but who knows. I only deal with NVME drives, but these are good for storage and to start replacing mechanical drives.

    Recommended by the Geek Squad when my laptop hard drive died in November; so far so good, definitely faster, more storage, and feels more stable overall. Reasonable price as well for the performance.

    The personnel at GEEK SQUAD were very professional in taking care of the issue with my laptop! I left my laptop with GEEK SQUAD, was told the Samsung Solid State Drive would be installed, give them 2 or 3 days. I was called the next day, informed me my laptop was ready for pick up! The GEEK SQUAD rocks!
