Customers are saying

Customers recognize the 970 EVO Plus 1TB Internal SSD PCIe Gen 3 x4 NVMe as a high-performance drive that's easy to install and use. Positive feedback frequently highlights its speed, ample storage capacity, and reasonable price. While some users noted that the drive may generate a bit more heat without a heatsink, the overall experience is overwhelmingly positive.

    This made my laptop super fast! My laptop can't utilize the gen 4 speeds but this EvoPlus maxes out my laptop performance! Recommended highly if your system can use gen 3.

    Very Fast! Doubled my storage and Windows and games load within seconds. Only downside: it does not come wiht the little screw that holds it down. Need to order those separately.

    Bought from Bestbuy and installed when I got home. Had a problem getting any of the Samsung data migration tools to recognize it was installed so I called Samsung and was told it was bad and to return it for a new one. After returning I installed the new one and has worked great ever since and is super fast.

    This was the first time I ever purchased an M.2 hard drive. I have sisters bought Samsung SSD because of their reliability and the cloning software. This was equally great.

    970EvoPlus 1TB NVME SSD works great and is easy to install. No issues with it. Did have to do an extra step with formatting it in a way for Windows to read it correctly though. Normal thing to have to do apparently though, so is good.

    SATA SSDs are great. This is even better!

    Easily beats SATA SSDs since the device sits directly on the PCI-e bus rather than behind an interface that was designed for spinning rust. Windows install and even Windows updates run in minutes. Highly recommended if your PC supports NVME on the motherboard, or use a PCI-e board with NVME socket(s).

    Worked great for the price. It slotted in easily , booted up , set up the drive and immediately worked . Been getting into 3d printing and needed extra storage space and this was the best choice for the price I was looking for . No extra cables no external storage taking up space .

    With this bad boy, you can basically kiss loading screen tips goodbye. Well not completely but it really is fast when compared to a regular internal SATA ssd and it makes HDDs look almost primitive. I load into most games in about 6 seconds. And open world games in 10 or less. Buy one and try it yourself.

    upgraded from a stock 512 nvme and glad i spent the money, my desktop snaps the life when you turn it on. processing everything faster than ive ever been used to. just make sure this would work for your desktop/laptop/gaming system 1st. do your research it will pay off.

    One of the best SSDs on the market!

    What can I say? It's the best 1TB SSD you can get, and since it's an NVMe and it mounts straight to your motherboard, there's no power cable or data cable to worry about becoming unplugged. Very small (about the size of half a candy bar). Just be careful when installing it - it's way too expensive to handly roughly.
