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 installed it into my laptop which came stock with a 256gb ssd. It works as intended and is well worth the money.

    Has worked very well, I had geek squad install it and they did an amazing job like always. I do a lot of photography and the occasional gaming. So I wanted something I could trust and this hard drive was one of the better reviewed.

    This is an amazing upgrade for a good price. Highly recommend going with a well respected brand because this replaced multiple "budget" versions that didn't perform as they claimed.

    I didn’t have any issues with it. It’s speed is satisfactory for the purpose that I use it for. Will probably purchase a 2TB one when they drop in price. Just put it in my m.2 NVMe supported slot and it worked like that.

    Works as advertised. No problems so far. I just wish they would put the stickers on the bottom of the PCB because it does add a bit of heat to the chips and you void your warranty if you remove the sticker.

    Good bang for buck, technically bought 2 cuz i returned a motherboard and accidentally left it inside. Although it would be nice if the 2gb version was listed on the app, thinking about getting it in the future.

    I bought a Samsung drive in order to clone the 256 GB SSD that my system originally came with... purchase included the ability to download software to clone the drive... it turned out my original drive was an M.2 form factor so I ended up buying this 1 TB Samsung M.2 drive and used a Samung 870 as a temporary to clone the original M.2 drive and then as the source to clone onto this new M.2 drive... the process was quick and my system is working great - I have plenty of storage capacity.

    This is a solid drive to recommend, even at its higher price. The drive has been extremely reliable for editing video and photos on, and I have not run into any of the slow downs with larger files like I had on a previous drive.

    This is a must have. The first thing that I did for my new computer is to replace the legacy hard disk with this NVMe SSD. It is so reliable that you can install and forget that it exists.

    Fast write and read speeds, I throw my most played games on it. Just be aware that binary is funky being base 2 (versus base 10) so one only gets 931GB in storage when formatted on Win 10. Great deal durning the holidays

    Samsung NVMe drives are the best. 970 evo plus is still a great option if you don't want to spend the money or you don't have a system that could take advantage of the 980 pro drives.
