    Samsung M.2's have always worked for me. Needed some extra space on a laptop. Just put this in the slot and 2TB of fast storage. Use Samsung Magician for more features and updates. Simple and works great.

    This card is very fast. I got it to upgrade my laptop, which had 2 slots for ssds, one gen 3 and another gen 4. I swapped the disks, the one that came with the laptop was gen 3. The software to transfer data that came with the disk was very easy to use. Very happy with my purchase.

    I have purchased several NVMe M.2 drives of which 3 have been Samsung. Samsung has always been dependable and top of the line. These things boot up like nothing, I installed windows 10 in 10 minutes. Very fast on certain downloads (compressed files downloads don't exist) temperature is great, stayed at 50c for 10hrs. Gaming load times decreased significantly. So far, so far a great purchase

    Can't go wrong with Samsung. I've been looking for Gen 4 2TB SSD's for a while and the other counterparts seemed good but had certain trade-offs I disliked. I'm not a NVMe SSD geek so I didn't really do any tests, but it works...so I'm happy.

    Solid performance but runs hot

    Solid performance. Expect high reliability. But keep this device tends to run quite hot relatively to other Samsung NVMEe's that I've owned. Purchased an aftermarket heat sink since the one included with my motherboard led to very high readings occasionally over 80 degrees C. With the aftermarket heatsink, the device is consistently between 52 and 58 degrees. I took off a star because I had to spend time & additional money to cool the drive. I do like the performance just be aware it's hot!

    Excellent drive. Samsung is known in the industry with the best NAND compared to competitors and this drive exemplifies this nicely in the consumer space. While other drives post better benchmarks in synthetics and even real world transfers in some comparisons realize this: Samsung can do exactly the same if they choose to do so via Firmware. I know since I test NAND, FW and Drive Controllers for a living from all vendors. Samsung’s 980 Pro 2TB not only delivers competitive performance the price premium some are concerned over gives you more reliable NAND after the standard warranty offering as well as a reliable in-house process from R&D to production. You won’t go wrong on this product as it keeps up with the heavy hitters and you will have peace of mind as to NAND reliability (which is where your data is stored) long after the manufacturer warranty period. Samsung ARR on this product is very appealing over say competitors including those who outsource their NAND sourcing. One final word: Samsung’s FW design means they spend a lot less time in Background FW processes that will eat your NAND endurance quickly. Consider that compared to the competition.

    Super fast add on storage for PS5. Purchased this to expand the lack of storage the PS5 comes with. Purchased the Jeyi finscold copper 80 series heatsink (I bought my 980 pro before Samsung started selling the units with a heatsink) and have had no throttling issues due to temps. Install was a breeze only wish Samsung offered a 4TB in this model.
