I have always gotten a lot of help from the Geek Squad. I also want to thank HECTOR at your Aventura Store in Aventura Florida for his patience and technical skill while helping me with my laptop computer. Not only did he solve the problem with my computer, I also got to learn some things about my laptop. AGAIN, thank you GEEK SQUAD AND THANK YOU HECTOR.

This part is very beneficial to me and the best part? It actually works! Unlike other sites selling me faulty hardware and not compensating me for it. (*cough…Amazon)

You can go wrong with Samsung drives. This my second Samsung SSD. I replaced a WD Black spinning drive with this 980 and what a difference NVMe makes. It would have been nice they had included a screw for mounting the drive.
So far so no,issues.

Bought this SSD for an external 10Gbps USB-C enclosure and it works great as a portable steam drive. Loading time is almost the same as if it was installed in the PC.
