This drive is great. Much faster than the hard drive that came preinstalled in my 2017 dell xps 15. Double the storage and allowed for better speeds.

Solid hardware, The hardware changes to the 970 Evo Plus made by Samsung are actually better for most consumers from a day-to-day performance perspective, with the caveat that operating temperatures appear to have increased significantly with the revisions. It also appears to be relatively easy to tell which hardware revision you have, potentially without even opening the box, but certainly by confirming which part number is on the sticker for your specific drive.

Other brands have leveled the performance field. Samsung still is at the top. Price and performance was the main reason for the choice.

Very fast compared to my standard SSD I had. It does run hot according to Samsung Magician, but is actually well within the normal limits.

This is the best and by far the fastest and easiest to install I've ever bought. Built a PC and chose this module for OS and then some. It is fast.

After installing this into my laptop, it seems to be running so much faster! I have had it in there for about two or three weeks now and been able to use my computer without any problems. I have a HP laptop that was just running on a hard drive and wanted to add this to it, I watched a video on YouTube about my computer being upgraded and decided to go for it! I’m not disappointed at all! I highly recommend this product to anyone who has a product that is compatible.

Exponentially faster over an old IDE drive. No specs or benchmarks to provide, just really happy with the purchase. Plug and play easy to install.
