    I got tired of the slow performance and data lost to old spinning drives. Moving to NVMe drives is the most logical decision any computer owner should make. Sorry that I did not do it

    Bought it to speed up the load time of a gaming pc. The spin disk that came installed took near a minute to load , With the M.2 SSD installed it only takes 15 seconds.

    Solid storage solution. Met my needs and was easy to use. Is it worth the premium over cheaper alternatives? No, in my opinion. Unless you are transferring files within your system frequently, there is minimal gain for the money. Games and programs did not load nor perform justifiable better.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    But overpriced considering the current market, however, Samsung and Best Buy staff by the products they sell. So, although others may be less expensive, this is the better choice.
