Bought this m2 ssd to provide additional storage in my new laptop rather than use an external ssd or hd. I was a little apprehensive about using a refurbished product but it has worked flawlessly. Couldn’t resist the price!

Samsung has been my go to for Solid State Drives since introduction to consumer marketplace.
Hopefully this drive will last as long as my 7-year old Samsung PM951 (NVMe 1.1) used on three builds over that time as main drive.
970 EVO Plus is a fast PCIe 3.0 drive (NVMe 1.3) still had cache unlike a few of other drives. Price premium for PCIe 4.0 drives makes the EVO Plus a good choice.

Solid gen 3 nvme

Nvme price has dropped recently. It’s still a solid gen 3 nvme drive. Samsung usually add a brand surcharge, but this time due to the fiasco of the 980 pro and 990 pro. Even Samsung price is now dropping.

Great value. Mine only had a TB written previously so I guess it was fairly new. Data transfer rate is excellent!
Installed it in a legion 5 gaming laptop. Installation and Setup was a breeze. Managed by Samsung Magician software. Though there are plenty of other options, magician is simple and easy to use

BestBuy typically put it on sale which makes it even better. Speeds are great and even know it was refurbished it only had 100GB of wear when I got it, a friend had also purchased the same SSD and it had 50GB of use on it. Not bad at all.

Outstanding Gen 3 NVMe ... one of the best. I got this refurbished 970 EVO Plus 1TB for 115 dollars and it had 0 write/read hours on it. Came in original packaging also. Working well so far and temps for me stay around 41C. My benchmark shows 3400+ Seq Read and 3300+ Seq Write.

This is my 2nd certified refurbished Samsung SSD that I bought from Best Buy, and for the price, this is a pretty good deal. Works and functions like new, and it's a 970 Evo Plus, one of the best performing PCIE 3.0 NVME SSDs out there.

Geek squad certified carries with it a trust and here's to hoping it doesn't burn me later. This alongside the Wd sn750 are great options given the speeds they can achieve while remaining relatively affordable for 1tb variants.
