SAMSUNG 870 EVO SATA III SSD 1TB 2.5” Internal Solid State Drive, Upgrade PC or Laptop Memory and Storage for IT Pros, Creators, Everyday Users, MZ-77E1T0B/AM

As the title suggests, this is a very easy hard drive to install and works very fast despite it not being a NVME drive which was my original concern. This purchase only comes with the SSD so you will have to provide your own screws for installation.

Worked fine until a mass amount of bad blocks started to appear. Ive only had this drive for half a year.

Im 51, ben an IT person since 1992. Ive worked with a lot of different makes and models. This drive performs extremely well not to mention the price is excellent. Not cheap ..... but all these cheap foreign non familiar brands flooding Amazon .... people need to be aware cheap usually doesnt equate to quality. It results in a higher chance of data loss.

I purchased this EVO 860 500 GB SSD as replacement for the 5400 RPM HDD in my ASUS laptop. Insalled same day as reciept - entire process took less than an hour with most of the time spent cloning my old drive via USB. With new SSD, my laptop boots up in seconds and everything runs faster and snappier. Installed alarger one in a desktop several months ago and made a huge difference in gaminig load times. Other than a new GPU, having an SSD boot drive is the best uprade you can get for any computer.

Wow, its amazing how such a small investment can absolutely transform an old, sluggish desktop PC. Were talking first gen i3 processor! On top of that, it was just recently upgraded to Windows 10. Ugh. It literally took 4 minutes to go from power on to fully functional.

Major performance upgrade for old HP G60-244dx laptop. Installed Windows 10 Pro on this old laptop, runs like a charm, better than when it was new. Decent price to performance ratio, being that its a Samsung EVO.

I put this into an old 2013 iMac and the performance increase was ridiculous. Made it feel like a whole new machine. If you don’t have an m2 slot for an nvme drive, I would definitely recommend this!!

I dont. know what Samsung are up to but I got my SSD drive in a small white box with zero other packaging. sticker that is placed over the barcode says new item - if so, where is the original packaging? Also learned recently that Samsung have been swapping their internal components for cheaper ones with worse performance. Hugely disappointing.

3 year old laptop with 1TB hdd running at 100% and slooow needed an update. Not so easy to open laptop, but installation was simple after that. Used Samsung Data Migration and allowed me to clone 1TB drive (30% used) to 500Gb easily. Took about 5 hours. Boot up time is seconds and not minutes. Performance data shows 5x the speed and now running at 10-20% max

easy to install
