    Good balance of heat/speed/size and cost for now given the recent price drop. Migration software Samsung has definitely made the transfer from 1tb drive painless.

    Games run up pretty good on this. I'm happy with the purchase. It took a few restarts in order for it to pick up but other that, things no problem here.

    It works perfectly with my motherboards (mb). FYI - verify that your mb supports 3x4 or 4x4 to spend less or buy faster SSD. Both of my PCs have mb supporting 3x4. Good price.

      Posted .

      Smalls:

      I’m sorry to hear that your Samsung 970 EVO Plus SSD did not meet your needs. The PS5 only supports PCIe Gen 4 drives, making the 970 EVO Plus not compatible.

      Our 980 PRO, 980 PRO with heatsink, 990 PRO or 990 PRO with heatsink are great options for PS5 compatibility.

      Please give us the opportunity to find a drive that best supports your needs.

    Bought this for my new laptop due to the fact that my laptop only came with about 500gb of storage and wasn’t enough for the amount of applications and games I use. It is pricey compared to its competitors although it’s a trusted brand so I believe it was worth the investment. I have a ASUS Rog Strix laptop, so after installing this into my laptop I had to configure my system prior to the laptop actually registering the change.
