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.

    Great throughput for the money. I've had this for quite some time now and it has been great. No complaints and my boot times are extremely quick.

    I recommend for anyone who wants to use this as a boot device (definitely for that, it’s 100% worth it). My pc is on the desktop in under 10 seconds. Games noticeably load faster and everything overall just feels smooth.

    ...SSD! This is my second drive in the last three months, you just can’t beat the speed and build quality of this SSD by Samsung. Of course thanks to Best Buy for excellent pricing on this as well.

    An excellent value and very good SSD. I upgraded my SSD on a new Lenovo desktop. I have Samsung SSDs in several PCs. They have never let me down.

    Best PCIE Gen 3 NVME in my opinion. Has DRAM and works with Samsungs Magician software. Great Option.

    This drive is very fast in everyday use, in excess of 3.5 GB/s for sequential read. The downside is an older PCIe Gen 3 interface.

    Best decision I made to upgrade my gaming experience and just computer quality of life since I cloned my Windows to my NVME for start up boot. Games like GTA V load considerably faster than on my old HDD.

    Ran out of storage so needed an upgrade on space. This was great after initial frustration (Samsung software didn’t work bc of enclosure) but used a different program (macrium) and made of an easy clone.

    I moved my operating system to this M.2 SSD and it's never booted up so quickly before. I've also added a few games and the load times are extremely minimal. It's a little pricey but definitely worth the money
