    Using this as a boot drive for Windows and it runs super fast. With 4th gen out there now definitely try to get it on a decent sale but otherwise it works as expected!

    Very Fast PCiE 3 NVME but on the pricey side. If you don't need the write speed/read speed that this offers I'd look elsewhere because there a cheaper alternatives out there for a better price.

    The Best Buy geeks did a great job of installing my new Samsung - 970 EVO Plus 500GB Internal PCI Express 3.0 x4 (NVMe) Solid State Drive with V-NAND Technology. They added the memory to my HP laptop and I now have more memory than an elephant! As always, professional service with a smile.

    The 970 EVO NVMe improved the startup time on my HP Envy. It now starts in 9 seconds from pushing the power button. The Geek Squad at Best Buy did a great job installing it. I brought it home, plugged in the cables, turned it on, and presto. It's like a new one. Thank you.

    Great product for the price, but since the Pro just launched it depends on your wallet since 500gb is gonna run you 160 in the Pro version but the speed is noticeable.

    Great and simple nvme ssd to install if your motherboard supports it. All you need is a screw and your set to install this product unlike traditional hard drives which require SATA cables and a mounting area. After installation computer boots in mere seconds and everything runs fast and quick.

    Excellent SSD, have had 10 without a single failure. You get a discount on these over the “+” for the slightly reduced write speeds. Unless you’re a digital artist, you’ll never know the difference. Even if you are, you prob won’t notice. Buy it!

    Easy to install, works with my ASUS H110M-E/M.2. Doesn't come with a motherboard pin, so make sure you have one handy from your motherboard set or purchase another set.
