Question 1

Could this SSD help my computer run faster?

Accepted Answer

Yes, I replaced an old HDD (hard disk drive) and the read/write speeds are now 5x the previous drive.  Boot up time is faster too.  If you are trying to move your whole OS to the same computer, you would have to have the proper empty bay, power / data cables, and a means of software to clone the old drive.  That depends on a person's technical ability; but was worth it for me to keep my business production PC operating, in lieu of a whole new computer and time of reinstalling applications.

Question 2

can I used this to upgrade my Thinkpad T430 HD? is this compatible

Accepted Answer

I used a Samsung 860 Evo (previous generation) on my T430.  You won't reap ALL the benefits of its speed, but it certainly WILL improve boot times.  This latest version should be compatible.  HIGHLY recommended.

Question 3

Why doesn't this come with the SATA cable to connect to the motherboard?

Accepted Answer

Hard drives almost never come with a SATA cable.  If you're replacing a HDD in a desktop then you already have a cable.  If you'replacing the drive in a laptop, a SATA cable isn't required.  You can buy a SATA cable when you purchase the drive if you need one.  No need to be cheap

Question 6

could you show me a link to sata cable to use with this?

Accepted Answer

Any SATA III cable.

Question 7

Will this work with a  Odense 2B47 Mother board ?

Accepted Answer

Since that motherboard uses standard SATA connections, it should work fine. However, imo, anyone needing to ask such a question should seek outside help when replacing hardware.

Question 8

adding this SSD to a desktop PC which has SATA motherboard ports. I have a standard HDD sata cable, do I need any special cables for this HDD?

Accepted Answer

Nope. As far as your computer is concerned, this is just a standard SATA hard drive. A blazingly fast one, but just a regular hard drive. Standard mounting holes in the standard places using standard threads with a standard SATA connector.

Question 9

What is the TBW warranty?

Accepted Answer

The TBW warranty for the SAMSUNG 870 EVO is up to 2,400 TBW under a 5-year limited warranty.

Question 10

Nope, nor a SATA cable which I just found out as I opened it to install
