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. The small size is also mentioned, with some seeing it as an advantage.

    I've had the 1tb version in my system for a little over 2 weeks now. It runs very smoothly and I would overall recommend it. So far, there is nothing I do not like about it.

    I’ve have 2 of these SSDs and I’ve had excellent use for the past month or so. Comparing to the M.2 variant (MSATA, I’m looking at you). Just a bit more performance and load times out as well as reliability I’ve had with these Samsung Evos.

    I was building a PC for the first time, and after insurmountable research, a lot of people were pointing at Samsung SSD V-Nand. Samsung is already a renowned company with SSD cards. So, I bought them right away and so far, they work great.

    Super fast and super simple plug and go setup. Reccomend looking up “how to install 970 Evo Plus NVME” online for how to find the correct drivers/updates and such. DEFINITLEY worth spending a few extra bucks over other brands.

    Building a new PC with an AMD Threadripper 2 CPU and a Gigabyte motherboard. I installed a Samsung - 970 EVO M.2 (NVMe) SSD to use as the boot drive. Windows 10 installed on it without a hiccup. I don't have a lot of mileage on it yet but so far I'm impressed.

    Remember how much faster your PC booted up when you upgraded your boot drive from an old school hard drive to a SATA SSD? Well you get that big speed boost again when you upgrade from SATA to NVMe. I highly recommend this drive, you will love it!

    These newer hard drives are amazingly fast. Plugs right into the motherboard and Windows 10 pro installation recognized it right away. Using this for the operating system and some storage. Also added a 1TB solid state sata hard drive for archived storage.

    This drive has been the hallmark of all of my PC builds over the last few years. For consumer grade NVMe its durable and the speeds are second to none. You can tell it was made with high quality PCB board.

    I recently purchased a brand new laptop from Best Buy that only came with 256 GB SSD. I really needed more than that so I talked with the Geek Squad and they were able to upgrade my laptop with the Samsung 1TB SSD which is awesome! Great job!
