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.

Great upgrade for a Standard HDD in a laptop or PC.
Samsung's transfer tool makes it easy to migrate data from old HDD to the new SSD and the performance gain is amazing.

Easy to install. Fit like the one I replaced it with. Very happy with the performance of this drive. Also at Bestbuy it was at the same price as on the internet. But no shipping and best of all curbside pick up.
