we now have the space we need and the speed. It was a good price and the geek squad member that worked with us was outstanding. He made sure we were doing the right thing and not trying to sell us another computer. That's why I am keeping my membership with Best Buy's.

I've been using AI models for image generation on my computer. The AI model files are huge (26 GB) and they need to load into memory for the program to use them, On a standard HDD, this would take over a minute. With this SSD it takes 10 or 15 seconds. Huge improvement!

Worked well with my ps5! Finally, I can download more games and not have to go through deleting older ones that I might not be done with. This ssd has good running speeds and a whopping 2 TB of storage. Liked it so much that I put one in my pc and another in my ps5.

Super easy assembly, along with slight necessary internet searches to ensure correct instalment/software setup. If you're buying yourself a new ssd, you should probably have enough knowledge to know the basics behind your pc or laptop.
Also fit great in the random heatsink I bought for it; if youre gonna really use this thing, its better safe than sorry.

I recently upgraded my storage to the Samsung 990 EVO Plus 4TB SSD, and I am absolutely blown away by its performance. From the moment I installed it, everything from boot times to file transfers became lightning fast. The read and write speeds are phenomenal—reaching up to 7,000 MB/s and 5,100 MB/s, respectively. This has completely transformed my workflow, especially for heavy tasks like video editing and gaming.
The 4TB capacity is perfect for me, providing ample space for large projects and games, without worrying about running out of room. The drive is also extremely reliable with Samsung’s industry-leading V-NAND technology, ensuring long-term durability.
Setup was incredibly easy, and the drive is super sleek, fitting seamlessly into my system. I also appreciate the low power consumption, which helps with heat management and extends the lifespan of the SSD.
All in all, the Samsung 990 EVO Plus 4TB is an absolute powerhouse, delivering incredible speed, reliability, and value for the price. Whether you're a content creator, gamer, or someone who simply needs top-tier storage, this SSD is a game-changer. Highly recommended!

Needed a new m.2 with bigger storage for games. I haven't had any issues so far, bought around February which is running great as of today. Hopefully this drive will last a long time to come. The speed of the reads and writes are running as advertised. This is my 1st m.2 with Samsung and so far I happy with what i paides for. Will buy again if prices drop in the future.

Samsung has always been my SSD choice. The EVO line is the best price-to-performance value. 4TB was the sweet spot, mainly for the convenience of needing only one drive for your operating system and games. Easy install.

Works Well So Far

Works well. I haven't had it for very long yet but so far it does what it says it does. Installing it was a bit scary since I am not used to working with the internals of my computers. But installation was fairly easy all things considered.
Also, 4TB is a lot of storage. I don't think I am running out of room on my laptop for a long time after getting this.
