Question 1

Does it come with mounting and cable?

Accepted Answer

This SSD is an OEM, which means it does not come with mounting and the cable. However, the cable is a standard SATA power and data cables. The mounting bracket is very inexpensive and can be purchased from Newegg. The mounting bracket can hold up to two SSD's, which is why I purchased two of them because I fully intend to purchase additional SSDs.

Accepted Answer

No. The two Samsung 750 Evo SSDs do not come with software.  All modern operating systems will recognize the drive and do not require extra software.  I'm running mine in Windows 7, Linux and Mac OS X.  If needed, you can download free Magician iutility soeftware from Samsung's website,

Question 3

Is this 3D drive?

Accepted Answer

All drives are "3D Drives."  Data be Data, almost.   It depends on how long or how slow you want or can write/stream the data.  Oh, what is your cash flow?  The interface is everything i.e,, PCI-E  or M.2 etc.

Question 6

Will this work in a MacBook Pro 2009?

Accepted Answer

You will need to check the technical specifications for your MacBook for HD size and interface requirements.

Question 7

Will this drive fit into an HP dv6636dr Pavilion Laptop.  I need to replace my old hard drive?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it can.  Your laptop take a 9.5mm hard drive (HD) with bracket. Most HDs and SSDs are 7mm.  You may need to use the existing bracket on your current HD or get another.   I have mine in the 7mm drive bay of a Dell e7440 laptop and so did not need a bracket.  Check your maintenance and service guide on the HP support web site.
