Skip this drive. Returned and will never buy again
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am a huge fan of samsung's storage options and have been for quite some time but this is definitely the worst to come out in recent time. Do yourself a favor and skip this one, as the reliability and quality is not there. It overheats, throttles transfer speeds, and ejects randomly if you use it in a premium thunderbolt enclosure. Doesn't matter which one either. I've tried them all out. Had to return this just few months later even though I still have some of my oldest samsung drives from YEARS ago and are still working flawlessly. If you're on PC or mac, I highly recommend the new 980s.

Great storage at a reasonable price
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Owned the 1tb, now got the 2tb. Fast, though it does get hot. Reliable drive, and samsungs magician software is great for cloning an old os drive onto this (though its better to just reinstall windows)

A Samusng M2 SSD
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.At this point M2 SSDs are a commodity. That said, Samsung usually commands a premium. This was a solid deal. I cloned the old drive with clonezilla, and the final partitioned space was about 1.6TB. I don't think I had 400GB of stuff to transfer from a 256GB drive, so *shrug*.
