    I won't get into specs, just to state it scored 4.5 times as fast as my micron MX500 SSD in read and write. Be aware, it does not come with a spacer nor a screw so if your motherboard doesn't have one on it already make sure you can access one. My MB Dell MB came with the spacer but no screw. (an misinformation on screw size - it stated a M2.5 screw but took an M2.0 screw). 5 year warranty and Samsung name = reliability.

    I'm getting right at the advertised speeds. I use this for Windows and apps, and have everything else on a separate storage drive. The software is great. You can monitor the health of the drive, and optimize it on a scheduke. Overall, just a fantastic little SSD if you want lightning fast response times from your OS and apps.

    Replace the Failed "Intel" NVMe with "Samsung"

    Works Great in my laptop. Used to replaced the failed "Intel" NVMe. Expected Samsung might supply a short piece of heat sink tape with it. So if anyone buys it, expect to use your old tape that may be covering your old NVMe stick. Windows 11 reload went well. All is great again

    I had this Samsung internal drive installed in my laptop because I was having issues with it. So far, I have not had any issues with it, and my Microsoft Office programs, especially Word, Excel, and Powerpoint, open quickly.

    NVMEs are here to stay.

    They are fast and reliable. While the waiting time compared to an SSD is little, still noticeable. When I boot using an SSD it can take about 10-15 seconds. Nvme does it in 2-3 seconds. However, sometimes you still depend from external factors, like updates or downloading the update... last time I updated windows it took 2 hrs, not because of the nvme, that’s just how slow windows is with installing updates.

    Samsung make the best SSDs in the market. None of their SSDs have ever failed me yet. My Evo 850 from 6+ years ago still work great but this 970 Plus is a huge step up in terms of performance. Built a new PC and using this 970 Plus as the boot drive while my old SSDs(850s/860s) are used as extra storage and to carry all my old files into the new PC.

    Got this as I needed more space in my rig. Instead of getting something super large I chose this because of the read speeds. Holy cow does it load up games fast. Assassins Creed:Odyssey use to take so long to load on my HDD. Not anymore. would highly recommend if you are looking to get your first Nvme SSD. There are others that are cheaper for sure, but lack what this one is capable of.
