Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought a used HP EliteBook laptop, which is at least 10 years old, more than 18 mos ago. The old 500 GB hard drive was getting very slow at start up, not only because it is an old mechanical drive, but also because it is over 80% full. I saw this Samsung Refurbished Solid State Drive at a low price on Best Buy. After cloning and installing, the only issue I have with the new drive is that when I restart (Windows 10), I get error messages that no drive is found. I don't know if the issue is with the BIOS. I just shut down and turn it back on instead of restarting. Not a big deal. SSD drives should consume less power than mechanical hard drives. I don't notice much of a difference in how long the batteries last. There may be a slight difference though. In terms of performance, the difference is very noticeable with the new SSD. It is much faster, especially at start up. I'm posting my review after a few wks of use. I am pleased overall.

This is one of the fastest SSDs on the market. My old laptop was very slow, and with this SSD, I brought it back to life and installed Win 11. I recommend this SSD; it's reliable and the price is affordable.

I bought this to replace the hard drive in my MacBook 2012. It’s incredibly fast, runs incredibly smooth, and installing it was incredibly simple.

I bought this to use on my Home Assistant machine which is an old mini HP. There is considerable disk use due to the high volume of statistics and events Home Assistant handles, in addition to more common logs and application use. The device is nearly 70% full and still performing great, with zero issues to date.

If you can manage to get a hold of one of these for the right price, it is not a bad way to go for cheap storage. I typically buy these certified refurbished units for rebuilds. I install them into the laptop loading OS, download the latest drivers, and install the Samsung magician software to analyze the drive. So far I have not gotten one of these geek squad units that has had more than one terabyte written, ad has been in less than good health. If you’re looking for a second drive, or to get an old computer, running better than when it was new if it shipped with a mechanical drive not a bad way to go.

Just like every other samsung SSD its fast and always been reliable. Purchased to replaced the aging 2.5” HDD in my sisters laptop.

The SSD WORKS FINE. I use it in a homebase for my Eufy video surveilance system.

Worked as expected and it sped up my old computer sigificantly.

Great value with very little hours on the refurbished drive. The one I received had 10 hours and works great. Not a bit worried about using the drive in a PC or laptop. 870 has DRAM and that is a plus.

Good refurbished drive for the right price. Ran diagnostics upon purchase and the drive is fine.

Purchased as an HDD to SSD upgrade for an older Toshiba laptop at work I wanted to fix up as a shared workstation when needed. Install was straight forward and really sped up the machine and allowed me to install widows 10.

Fast, stable eztra storage. This should last a while with it's included dram. Worth a little extra money that the no frills ssd without dram.

This worked so good and made my Xbox so much faster bout to buy another for my computer and my other Xbox

I used this SSD out of the box. No issues at this point.

Great SSD. Well priced. Bought refurbished without any issues. Only problem was getting windows to recognize on fresh install. Eventually got it working. No issues since.

Samsung Geek Squad Certified Refurbished 870 EVO 500GB SATA Solid State Drive is a good product. It was installed and running with no issues. Thank you and keep up the good work.
