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.

    Updraded my older hard drive to this ssd, and what a difference. Start up used to take 3-4 mins. This one is up and running in 10 sesconds. Apps also run much faster.

    I got my first Samsung SSD a few years back. After using it on my old Alienware I decided I wanted another one for my new Laptop. I’m a little disappointed in the speed. It seems a little slower then my other one, however, it could be just me. Still worth the upgrade from whatever cheap hard drive Dell, HP, etc uses.

    It mounted easily. Does not come with the mounting screw and that might slow you down on installation. Performance is very good. I would buy again. Wished the price was a bit lower but you do get what you pay for.

    Replaced stock Intel Optane monstrosity that came with my HP Envy 15. Definitely snappier than the 2-lane Intel. Unlike OEM Samsung drives, this one is supported by the Samsung Magician tool.

    Fantastic and speedy drive for replacement of a 128GB NVMe in my HP Desktop. It took a little effort to clone the 128 to the 1GB, but it's working great.

    Nice SSD at a good price.. seems like Best Buy is the "Source" for on hand computer parts. Now if the can only stock Graphics cards like the Nvidia RTX series the store would be PERFECT.
