Customers are saying

Customers find value in the 970 EVO Plus 250GB SSD's impressive performance, ease of use, and significantly reduced boot times. Many appreciate its straightforward installation and the compact size, although some feel the price is high for the storage capacity. Positive feedback also highlights the reliable performance typical of Samsung SSDs. The drive's relatively cool operating temperature is another frequently cited advantage.

    Wow I'm a little offended just a hair over a year after I bought this how cheap it is now. If I could've I'd have wanted the 500 GB model it's priced lower today than what I paid for this even the 1 TB is too also ... insane.

    With a name like SAMSUNG you expect quality, and that is what I got a superb quality SSD that works over my expectations. Great speed for my processors, seems like it is in warp speed, because thing I load just appear on my screen instantly. I believe you to can experience this, but you need to buy it to do that. You will love it.

    My laptop and desktop both boot with this M.2 They boot in less than 10 seconds!! I would recommend this to graphic designers, gamers, and anyone who wants to build a workhorse computer or improve an existing one. If you don't have experience installing drives like this, please have Geek Squad do it for you to avoid damaging your PC.

    Great performance and Samsung reliability. This is a great drive but does run warm so ensure you have proper air flow over it to maintain maximum performance. I'd also suggest the samsung magician software to enable over provisioning and any rapid/cache modes. One of the best warranties available!

    Holy load times! Installed this and didn't quite realise this m.2 was 3500mbps compared to my pny being 500mbps. Loaded up programs like it was nothing! Only complaint was that it doesn't come with any screws for install, thankfully I had one laying around. Great product overall

    This ssd boots in a matter of seconds! I really don't even have much of a need for an nvme over a traditional ssd. But bought the drive mainly because I was intrigued with the technology and its frees up my other ssd lol. But it does read and write at ridiculous speeds, and I'm not disappointed in my purchase in the least bit!
