    Purchased to replace too small SSD drive that came with laptop. This particular SSD drive was highly recommended to me. Due to extenuating circumstances, have not installed yet, but will do so soon. I know it will be excellent replacement.

    Great NVMe for replacing an existing one in your laptop. All you have to do is clone your current one with this one and you'll notice a big speed bump. I was getting speeds of 3,500 MBp's

    I generally don't purchase Samsung products with exception to their drives, which I really can't complain about. This one has been in my daily driver for over a year and the speeds are still pretty good. Drive health still shows 100%!

    If you want lighting fast storage this one is a must have for any computer. PC boots up in seconds programs and software lightning fast for the price it's really worth it. Samsung magician software is one of the best to monitoring your storage.

    Samsung 970 Evo Plus has always been my go to for m.2, PCIe gen 3 drives. This one is no exception. Performs very well at a glance. Have not ran any read/write tests yet but should be on par.

    Samsung makes the best SSDs

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Samsung SSDs are simply the best on the market. Yes, 500GB is more than 90-95% of computer users need, but the higher capacity (above 250GB) doesn't cost much more, and in theory, due to load leveling, it doubles the amount of data that can be written to the device before it wears out. The other reason for buying a large storage capacity is that Samsung devices will probably last longer than your computer, so you can use this device on your next computer or refurb a friend's computer with it.

    Best recommendation I ever got from Geek Squad. The gentleman that suggested the PCI Express SSD knew what I needed by just asking a few questions that I answered. Price was worth it without trying to oversell. My PC runs faster & smoother than ever.

    With write and read speeds ranging between 3000-3500mbps there's no wonder why this card is at the top of it's class especially with it's vland technology to help reduce temperatures. I purchased this m.2 drive originally for my boot system but then converted it to use for the upcoming game titles being released. The max temperature this card has recorded in my rig is 122 degrees. Overall I'm satisfied with this card. Don't have any real complaints about the card minus pricing, but you get what you pay for.

    Copying large files/virtual machine disk files takes only SECONDS. If your motherboard has M.2 drive support, then this really is the way to go. (make sure it's the right key, there are multiple types of M.2 specifications, look at your motherboard documentation)

    Bought this to replace a sata based pcie drive. The difference was night and day. The old drive (stock dell Sk Hynix) could barely hit 300 read speed. The new Samsung topped 1800. (Motherboard limited to pcie 3*2) amazing performance increase across the board.

    Currently working on a new PC build, haven't installed it yet. However, past experience with the same brand in an SSD has been fantastic. Choose either the regular SSD or M.2 SSD you can't go wrong.

    As expected from Samsung, great and reliable SSD for the price. Easy to install, was able to open up my laptop at pop it in and just one screw was needed to keep it in place. Really fast storage, hasn't had any issues for me at all.
