    Fast and stays cool. Used for an upgrade build from an ssd. The system feels snappier, and has helped with load times in the Adobe product suite.

    On paper it's not the "fastest", so you get a good price on good quality. And i can still reboot from Windows to linux in @ 5 seconds.

    Made this my OS drive. Definitely one of the faster M.2’s I’ve experienced so far. Read/Write/Download speeds have been more than adequate.

    The Samsung 980 is a perfect culmination of storage technology, I find it to suit my needs as an open world gamer. I'm running it on Gen 3 Asus ROG Maximus X Code. And benchmarks with over half used capacity show 3395mb/2728mb sequential and 326171/27381 IOPS on Random which is doing a perfect job for games with world streaming like Star Citizen. Game loads are in seconds not minutes and that makes for a happy gamer. The 980 also boasts solid longevity having good thermals for me it's at steady 40c and a write life of 600 TBW

    I’ve used this brand before. Simple install. Simple migration software. Depending on how you transfer data, you may need a card reader.

    I bought this ssd based from good reviews. It is easy to setup. Its reading and writing rate were extremely fast but it was last only 15 days. I used it as primary disk of my busy work desktop and very heavy usage. Unfortunately can’t return to Bestbuy, need to file RMA at Samsung site and don’t know when get a replacement. In the mean time, need to look for a different disk and re-installed windows and softwares.
