    The Samsung - 970 EVO Plus 500GB Internal PCI Express 3.0 x4 (NVMe) Solid State Drive with V-NAND Technology is hands down the best NVMe SSD out there. If you can afford more space get it. It's super fast for gaming!

    I bought this for my gaming set up. First gaming set up. I love the fact that it’s a lot better for cable management. Much faster that ssd. But you can’t really tell the difference because they both boot fast.

    My first NVMe solid state drive. It took the industry long enough to finally improve the form factor of HDD. Installs similarly to RAM, and no need for extra PSU connections.

    I had an NVMe from a different company that was a dud so I had to run out to Best Buy to grab this. I'm so happy they had one in stock so I could install and restore my laptop right away. Works like a charm and fast as heck!

    Upgraded with this drive from a regular 970 EVO and confirmed that it is as advertised - getting over 3200 mb/s reads and over 3000 mb/s writes in my XPS 9570 - not bad for a laptop.

    Good SSD for the money.....and essential for computing in 2020 or the 21st century. Typically, Samsung is a brand that I stay away from (especially from their clothes washer/dryer), but they make a decent SSD.

    Boot time is less than 10 seconds with this it is fast. However the price is alittle high for a 500GB nvme I found other 1tb ones for the same price. I guess you pay for the Samsung brand name because these are reliable.

    Purchased to be the primary memory for my first computer build. Paired with an AMD Ryzen 5 3600 CPU & an ASUS Tuf Gaming X570-Plus motherboard. So far it is running awesome. Would certainly recommend.
