Easy install, easy to initialize,

On my new motherboard it works as a gen 5 2-lane vs gen 4 4-lane. So with Samsung magician, its performance compared to another stick operating at 4x4, is just an epsilon poorer - but not enough to complain about. Its performance almost matches its spec. When I can get a 5x4 at a reasonable price, I'll upgrade and get twice the speed.

Samsung reliability Top-notch performance Samsung Magician Software for drive management and maintenance


Fast and cool drive. Have no issues so far... Works as well as my WD Black 850x

FAST! It is plenty fast for my home pc and server needs. Great drive so far

- It worked out of the box. - It is fast. - I cannot keep up with the speed of the SSD.


Decent price, fast, and worked right away.

Delivers good real world performance.

Holds all my games, even the ones I don't play but installed anyway because it's way too much space.

- Performance - Temps - Value

runs fast , read/writhe 13559/13259 runs cool, like 52c with my gygabyte x970 normal board cooler i had the lastest bios, so cant momment on that, what immediatly reconize

Fast transfer speeds, fantastic read/write speeds

There are none, it's garbage. Update: works great, very fast transfers. Update: After trying retrieve data from the first Kingston M.2. I was unable to. I contacted Kingston for an RMA. It was super fast and after sending the defective M.2 the turnaround was about a week.

I upgraded a Dell Latitude e6540. I purchased a simple ssd/usb cable from Newegg, and the used the free Samsung migration software. It copied my entire C:\> drive and full bootable OS onto the new drive in five minutes with one click. it took ten more minutes to remove the Laptop main drive door, slide out the old ssd, and put in this new one. The PC booted right up in 15 seconds (Win 7 pro, not speedy Win10). Easiest Upgrade I ever made. I now have 1TB to record my high speed astro photography on.

Installed a Linux distribution on this blank drive, revived an old windows machine. Snappy and lots of storage.

Runs really fast and boots windows almost instantly

Easy to install, comes with a heatsink sticker, and games run way better.

This is the best SSD you can get, and it seems to work great.
