Definitely worth every penny, I've seen A lot of people comparing to the Fire Cuda and I would go with the Samsung for the reliable build quality. Also with customer benchmarks and not company Spec sheet. I couldn't find anyone sharing the results of the Fire Cuda actually out performing the 980 Pro. The results could be out there somewhere but I wasn't able to find A reliable source when doing my research. The only thing I can say is I wish I would of purchased the 2TB version instead of the 1TB. Great drive and well worth the money and Speed is in A league of it's own.

Dont let the refurbished condition fool you! This drive i received is almost competely brand new with only 6 total power on hours. After installing your drive i would still suggest running a disk management utility like crystal disk info to ensure that the drive you received is in good condition, but in my case at least the drive i received was perfect. I would highly recommend!

I got this as a refurbished drive. It had been used and resold to me.
It's still a great drive! Still has plenty of cycles read/write left on it.
Samsung PRO series M.2 drives are so good.
It's fast. My computer and games start up so quick it's crazy.
I haven't had any issues with this drive.

I pre-ordered a Framework DIY laptop and opted to not get the SSD or RAM from them. The options from Framework were WD which were not SSD's I had experience with, so I opted to find a Samsung 1TB. This 980 PRO showed up in the refurbished at a great price so I jumped on it.
I've ordered most of my Samsung SSD's as Geek Squad Certified Refurbished and have had no issues with them.
So, I'm happy with my purchase.

I purchased this when it was on sale. I was skeptical having read some of the reviews regarding receiving a used device. However when I examined the drive it had only 1TB written meaning the entire drive had likely just been wiped one time. This is rated for 600TB so that's practically new.

If you don't know, Samsung is THE industry standard for SSD / m.2 / NVME drives. You will NOT be disappointed. And these refurb drives are never a disappointment. They always work and are a great discount.

The item works as designed with the specified performance (as far as I know). It was easily installed. But it did take almost 2 weeks beyond the initial availability date indicated for it to actually reach the pick up store I selected, with no update to the prediction (even though two other stores within 20 mi stated they had it for immediate pick up).
