    No problems, health check software said the ssd was running good. Good replacement for an old hard drive.

    Not sure if review for new or refurb evo 870. Either way the same. I've bought a bunch of these from various vendors. Possibly over 100. Swap out old school mechsnical HDDs for these. Great for adding speed to an older computer. BB is competitive on price, and same day store pickup is a great excuse to hit nearby chinese resturant for lunch. Cheers.

    Bought this for a 7 year old laptop and instantly it brought it back to life. Seems like a new machine after changing hard drives. Easy to replace, easy to clone the existing hard drive. Only thing you'll need is a way to connect this drive to your computer to run the program. I bought a hard drive case with USB ports.

    It's a great drive, especially for the price. I was worried that since refurbished that it would have a lower life expectancy but after scanning the drive I show it still has 97% expectancy left on it. I would also recommend that you get Samsung magician and run it in performance mode. Holy crap. It makes a huge difference in speed. Overall, I'm very happy with this purchase.

    Just like my Samsung 860 EVO 500GB SSD experience, the Samsung 870 EVO 500GB didn't let me down. I cloned my old drive to this one and had absolutely no problems and again had crazy good performance as always. Samsung Magician even let me know that there was newer firmware for the drive and took care of it with a reboot. Great drive from a solid company, can't go wrong.

    Very good deal. This made my hp pavilion laptop 50 times faster. I had hard drive before and it used to take minutes to start the laptop. Now with this Samsung Evo SSD it is like less than 10 seconds to start the laptop. Browsing is also improved a lot. I would definitely recommend this to try it out and see the performance...

    Got this SSD refurbished for a reduced price compared to new and still works like a charm. Not storing any important data on here so not worried if lifetime not as long.
