    I've had this a few months. It looks and works just like a new one. It's SOOO much faster than the original disk in my laptop. I've gotten several of these for other laptops and had absolutely no problems. Yes, the 860's are a little faster and a little more expensive. These are still really fast. You won't be sorry if you get one of these.

    Buying a refurbished SSD is a great way how to get the most bang for your buck for storage. Quick load times for my PC.

    Looks pristine, also performance was good. But decided to save some money and also I felt comfortable getting the 860 EVO 500GB. So returned it.

    One of the best SSD's in the industry

    Honestly I own new 500GB and 250GB versions of this SSD but I figured since the only difference they have to this is memory amount that I could still offer my insight. Despite the price differences between this drive and its competitors (SSD and hard disk), it is well worth the budget jump. This thing boots up my desktop quicker than my phone turns on. In addition to the boot time upgrade, you will also notice how much smoother loading files or applications is when you have this drive in your computer; for example, my time to load GTA 5 (which usually takes a few whole minutes on a good day) is approximately halfed from the typical load time on a hard disk drive. If these points don't have you convinced enough, this SSD is a super easy to install drive into a PC and looks so sleek in the drive bay, with the best part being that there are no moving parts so it tolerates almost any vibrations or shock given. This is definitely a must have in a desktop build, especially given the price-to-performance ratio.

    Reliable!

    Using this since the beginning of time (first year of release) on my aging laptop, running as good as the first day I put it in. Only downside was that the laptop it's in supports the slower Sata 2 so I was never able to use the SSD to it's full potential, but It did give new life. Look for a minimum 500GB if you ask me as they recommened to leave a bit, i think 20%? The Samsung magician software does that as well, can't go wrong with Samsung on these!
