Customer Ratings & Reviews

Easy to install and works perfectly. My MSI motherboard recognized it with no issues. After install and updates, system cold starts within 10 to 15 seconds. 2tb had over 1.8tb of space.

Super fast, super reliable. Magician software that it comes with is intuitive and easy to use and does anything you would want it to. As far as SSD's go, it does what you need to, but Samsung gives you some extras that you wouldn't get anywhere else.

This hard drive and is super fast and was really easy to install. It has improved the performance of my PC and shipped very quickly. Would definitely buy again!

Installed the Samsung 980 PRO 2TB in my PC with no issues. Speeds are excellent — boot times, file transfers, and game loads are noticeably faster. It runs stable and consistent, even under heavy use. I added a heatsink just to keep temperatures lower, but even without one it stayed within a reasonable range. The price is on the higher side, but if you want a reliable, high-performance drive, this is a good choice. No complaints so far. Pros: Very fast read/write speeds Easy installation Stable and reliable Cons: Higher price compared to some alternatives

Found it on sale for $299.99, a must have for PS5, speed and performance is great about a month later it was on sale for $279.99 got a price adjustment even better. This 2TB gave me enough storage for all my PS5 without moving it back and forth from an external usb drive to play the game.

I have had this for a while now and all I can say is its absolutely amazing. Its fast, reliable, easy to install and all around just great!

Added this to my new Alienware X15 R2. Was easy to install. Added heat sync as these are supposed to run hot. Everything works as expected. I am using this as my games drive and everything is running great from it. Will probably buy this drive again to expand my PS5.

It's a genuinely good ssd, if you're looking for just 2 tera of space especially on say a gaming laptop. :) Been in my computer for a year now, and no problems at all. Installation was simple, just make sure you back up everything on to a usb or look up how to do it. You don't want to mess up your systems.

This is an excellent upgrade to my laptop and a true Best Buy pricing when compared to others online sellers. I was beginning to exceed the disk space on my original factory PC SN730 NVMe WD so this was a great upgrade. These are a few of my recommendations, - Search Youtube for tear-down instructions. - Use the free Samsung Data Migration for cloning. - Place the upgraded SSD on the empty slot (labeled SSD2) which will appear as Disk 0 in Disk Management. - After cloning, shutdown the laptop and remove the original SSD. - Reboot into Windows and let it run through the re-scan and reconfiguration. - Once everything works fine, then shutdown and reinstall the original SSD so you will have a second drive for additional space.

This SSD seems to perform well, but it failed after about a year. I could not write to the disk, and many files were corrupted. Fortunately, the disk was fully backed up. I took the computer into Best Buy. The tech said that they had recently received a memo from Samsung about this exact device failing due to a firmware error. The memo went on to say that sometimes updating the firmware would fix the problem. But sometimes the SSD was not fixable. Further, Samsung would NOT honor the warranty for failed devices in this case. Since I have TotalTech membership and the SSD was still within the Best Buy warranty period, I didn't need the Samsung warranty. Best Buy replaced the SSD, and verified that the new one had the firmware update. Happy ending. Samsung has a great reputation for SSDs, and the failure by itself I would not consider alarming. But I do find alarming that Samsung would not (according to the Best Buy tech) honor a warranty for a defect that was clearly Samsung's fault. If Samsung behaved ethically, this review would be 5 stars.

I needed more storage for my games and I could not beat the price at $90 Best Buy made me buy it. All joking aside I went from an SSD to an NVMe and you do notice the difference.

I bought two of these a few years ago when they were the newest thing, for different machines. We needed the extra space and our HP Spectre 360s only came with 1TB SSDs. Installation was painful because of the tiny, crappy, and glued in screws that HP used to hold the cases together. I cloned our installations without issue using the then free version of Macrium Reflect. Since then, the drives have been flawless and very fast. No complaints, except how quickly we were able to fill up 2TB.

One of the best purchases I have made for my PC from Best Buy. Read and write speed on this ssd is fast. 2TB is more than optimal for holding multiple documents, games, and videos. Price was fair and worth paying for. Installion is easy if you are computer savvy. I am still using it till this day.

These drives maintain a reputation for reliability and quality because they earn it. Everything loads fast and accurately as you would like, but its just quicker than you can grasp if you dont own one. Game levels or maps load in seconds, where a typical ssd or even a budget gen3 NVME would take multiples longer. I cant say it does the claimed write life because I doubt i will ever write that much to it within the timeframe they claim. But so far all of my 980 Pro drives have yet to let me down. Speeds when measured mostly live up to the claims of Samsung as well. As long as they dont pull a switcheroo on the hardware like PNY and other NVME manufacturers then this drive should remain near the top of performance for a long time to come.

Easy to install, quickly worked, and holds all 2 TB of space with fast data transfer as promised from SSD

With 6GB/s Read and 5GB/s Write speeds, this drive is blazing fast almost doubling the performance of my 3rd gen Samsung Evo 970+. I am very happy with the performance I'm getting from this drive and the price wasn't bad either.

Installation was a breeze in my Acer Predator Laptop that I purchased in March 2023 at Best Buy. I have an NVMe enclosure and use Macrium Reflect to image my current 512 GB drive to this one. Although, the Acer does have two NVMe slots, so I could have installed it in the second slot and imaged it, but felt it was just as easy using the enclosure since i had it. Drive has been workkng flawlessly since installation as primary drive. Installed Samsung Magician to make sure it was up to date and running fast, and it was. May get a second one for the other slot in the Acer.

What can i say about samsung and their Pro/Evo line? I won't ever buy a hard drive from anyone else. Samsung has done an amazing job with this M.2. Speeds are so high it writes faster than my computer can download the file. It transfers files almost instantly and it is extremely reliable. I put most of my games on this hard drive and they load instantly. I haven't ever had a bad experience with samsung and their m.2's. This includes the 870 evo ssd. Everything they make is great and i highly recommend you make the switch.

A friend was complaining about not being able to play any of his games on his gaming laptop and asked me to check out his laptop. I noticed he only had one drive that was almost full and needed more drive space. I’ve actually bought a few of these for upgrading storage for my husband’s laptop, my sister’s laptop, and my own pc. It is so easy to install and format. We use this specifically to hold our game files and we can hold quite a few games on this. So I installed this on my friend’s laptop and he has had zero issues since. I highly recommend.

Super duper fast and reliable. I've had it for a year or two now and its holding up great. games load so fast you can't even see the hints on the screen. Sometimes life feels like its moving in slow motion when I step away from my desk...
