    I had a new hope to build a computer. Using this component, I was able to reach my destination.And it even loaded the hi-res Kessel constellation image in less than 12 parsecs. It may not look like much, but it has it where it counts!

    Bought my wife a new laptop. Was able to expand to 2 Terabytes so I put this Samsung Evoplus 2 TB. Works great in her computer with all the space she will ever need. Samsung just makes a great SSD. Would not use any other brand.

    Used this drive to upgrade several MacBook Pro 15" 2015's. Used a cheap adapter and have added extra years of life on several laptops that would otherwise be obsolete. Some of these are on Open Core Legacy Patcher and some are on various distributions of Linux including Linux Mint Cinnamon, Redhat Enterprise, and Ubuntu Pro. Also have used these in external cases that I found for $18. Great way to have something light, small, and fast when I need to run another OS (Kali). Has enough space and speed to allow multiple virtual machines from the base OS with still retaining decent performance.

    FAST! That is how I would rate this SSD. Dump your internal SSD and get one of these if you are a gamer or enthusiast. Samsung consistently delivers great products, and this is no exception.

    Great nvme drive as always. Good speeds and good reliability. One of my go-tos for NVME drives. Good for laptops and everyday use if you do not need PCIE gen 4 speeds.

    This Samsung-970 EVO Plus Internal Solid State Drive made my laptop run so fast. It was extremely slow, so I purchased this little miracle, my son installed it and then reinstalled windows and oh my gosh is it fast. My laptop went from dragging along to running at warp speed. It would take my laptop (also worth mentioning my laptop is about 3 or 4 years old and an Asus) from a complete shut down about 5 minutes to fully restart, now since this solid state drive is installed it only takes about 30 seconds. It's amazingly fast. I thought about purchasing another laptop cause I though mine was done for, my son said this solid state drive would fix it and boy did it. If I knew how much better it would run I would have installed this a long time ago. Its simply amazing!

    Very very pleased with this. Had an unused gen 3 nvme slot on my mobo and was using an ssd through my sata port. Wow. Game load faster and run smoother. It is gen 3 so if you have a gen 4 slot you could consider something faster

    It Was super easy to install and this one was priced very reasonably. Got this for my laptop which only came with 512 Gb of space. The extra 1tb that this Samsung ssd gave me was not only just space but speed as well. I installed all my games and some video editing softwares into this ssd and everything felt so much snappier. Would 100% recommend this product, especially to anyone that has limited storage on a laptop and not too many slots to upgrade.

    Crazy how cheap these SSDs have become. This is basically a no brainer. If you still own a sata ssd or an hdd what are you even doing. This is 100$ and will change your life
