    Great SSD if its compatible with your PC

    I don't know about you guys, but when I build a PC the first the I do is look up the parts I am going to purchase and the reviews that go along with those parts. The 980 Pro had a fairly substantial group of users who were experiencing slow read and write speeds. But Bestbuy had an amazing special on it back when it first came out so I purchased one. To my surprise I had no issues and was hitting the benchmarks set by Samsung themselves. But I did set up an entirely new computer with zero compatibility issues between the SSD and the Motherboard. I have had it for around a year now if I am not mistaken.... And it still runs like new with no issues or problems to be had. That is also after at least 6 to 8 hard formats reducing it to nada each time. Only issue I had was with the heat pads being uneven due to the the main controller being lower than the rest on the SSD itself.

    I purchased a new PC on sale from Best Buy that had only a 500 GB SSD drive. This little gem was on sale, Installed easily. Windows 11 recognized it and formatted with ease. I keep my 4K Gopro videos on this drive. Very fast!

    I bought this SSD with expanding the storage of my PS5 in mind. After doing my research and also finding out this SSD was on sale at the time of my purchase, pulling the trigger on it was a no-brainer. The installation process of adding this SSD into my PS5 was a breeze. The SSD performs has expected....BLAZING FAST (of course).

    Prices dropped massively after I bought this thing but it performs so I can't complain. It's my OS drive and it does the job, and now SSD's are super cheap so you can snag 2tb drives for roughly the same price, if not less.

    I love Samsung drives and never had one fail on me before and why I will away buy them over the other brands. Got a new motherboard that supported a 4th Gen and upgraded for faster speed.

    Bought one of these for my PS5 and another for my PC! Both work flawlessly and are very quick. I load everything on my PS5 straight to this drive in hopes of saving the soldered drive for as long as possible on my PS5.

    I've been a Samsung consumer for some time now, as soon as I upgraded to PCIe 4 I upgraded from the 970 PRO and have it as a secondary drive, this new drive helps my system boot in near a blink of a eye (jk) gaming has been amazing and I like the fact that I don't need to put a heat sink, definitely worth it

    With a custom heatsink, this one is great and reliable for expanding your PS5 storage for collection of your games without wait times to download them. Speeds are great, there’s not much of heat and throttling, great drive overall
