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 upgraded the 500 GB SSD that came with my Dell PC with the Samsung EVO 1TBSolid Sate Drive. Works great and gives me the extra space for photos and movies.

    crazy fast drive topping the charts for pcie 3.0 m.2 drives. Newer pcie 4.0 drives have now taken the crown but from price to performance ratio, this is still one of the best drives available.

    If you're stuck with an Intel platform without PCIe Gen 4 support or some really old AMD platform, this is some of the fastest, most consistent, non volatile storage you can get. That said, it's a little pricey..

    One of the most reliable highly efficient storage available. It checks all the bid and is highly recommended by users like me and experts ratings. You may check for deals though it is definitely worth the getting.

    My motherboard only supports up to PCIE 3.0 so this was a no brainer to set as my boot drive. Increased my boot time from 40 seconds to just shy of 25.

    Samsung makes excellent products and the EVO 970 is no exception. After upgrading my hardrive I now have double the drive space. The drive works great and was easy to install. I would recommend this to everyone.

    Samsung SSD have always been good to me. There is no better NVMe SSD better than these out there. The Samsung Pro is better in terms of reliability but not necessary for consumer products and usage.

    Super fast NVME ssd, I pretty much only run Samsung NVME drives for their amazing speed but more importantly the longevity that Samsung EVO and PRO drives are know for, no one likes losing their data.

    Using the one I have in a new Dell optiplex 7070 and these things are very quick with very good performance. No issues, as just install and screw down into the motherboard. Then just clone other setup over, or setup as new install.

    These drives are crazy fast... For a few extra bucks you get insane speed - why not? These regularly go on sale, so if it's not and you can wait, do.

    This product has sped up my computer so much from what I was used to with a traditional SSD. Games load too fast to even read the loading screen tips in some cases. If you’re considering this product, get it. You won’t regret it
