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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
