SAMSUNG 870 QVO SATA III SSD 8TB 2.5 Internal Solid State Drive, Upgrade Desktop PC or Laptop Memory and Storage for IT Pros, Creators, Everyday Users, MZ-77Q8T0B

This is not a review of the SSD, but rather a review of the item I received. Item was received in a plastic bag. No box, no instructions, no indication of any kind that this is the new item that I purchased. Will be returning and buying from New Egg instead.

I love the performance this SSD puts out. I put all my major games on it, and it hasnt slowed me down once. Would highly recommend any PC build

cheaper drives probably work nearly as good, yet for your expensive data you want a better product.

I wondered if I was able to upgrade my PS4 Pros hard drive, did some digging and plenty of reading, and found some of my best options for upgrading the hard drive. The 870 QVO and the 860 EVO were the two that I was looking at but the 870 was newer so I just went for that since benchmark ratings were relatively the same. It took about a day before it really started to kick in but it is most definitely noticeable and significantly faster than the standard Travelstar 5k1000 the PS4 pro comes with. Game loading times are minimal, video clips save near immediately, navigating through the XMB and all apps is always at peak performance, I am 100% satisfied with my upgrade.

I updated my old slow HDD to this 870 QVO 1T SSD in my 7 year old HP PC. The cloning process took about 2.5 hours using the free Samsung migration software. Once cloned, I removed the old HDD and the new SSD worked just as usual but faster!! With the old HDD, it took about 5 minutes for my PC to startup but now with the new SSD, it only takes about 20-30 seconds...what an improvement!!

I had an old Inspiron 17 5000 series computer that was taking over 8 minutes to fully boot up. Tried everything youtube had to offer to make my computer boot up faster. Task Manager kept showing 100% disk usage. So I swapped the HDD with this Samsung Solid State drive and my gosh. Its like I put a turbo charger in my computer. My system boots up in under a minute now. I recommend swapping out old disk drives and also follow yourube videos(deleting bloatware,stopping startup programs, etc...)

I initially had some problems making disk to be recognized by system. I finally found a low level test in my HP 15 Envy (pressing F2 just at the boot moment) and the USB3.0-SATA cable that worked with other SSDs failed on USB test ( even with other detected drives ). I found another USB-SATA cable and it worked fined. After that, I cloned my initial 1TB HDD in about 7 hours and made the replacement of drives ( about half and hour ). My laptop boots faster and handles all tasks with a notorious performance improvement. It has been a good choice and Im happy with my 2TB SSD.

Producto excelente.

Esse modelo Samsung 870 QVO é muito bom, é meu terceiro SSD que compro em minha vida. Todos os três foram Samsung Sata III, a cada troca eu aumentei a capacidade. Comecei com um 840 EVO 1Tb, depois o 870 QVO 2Tb e agora o mesmo 870 QVO só que de 4Tb. Por enquanto está rodando de boas e respondendo as minhas expectativas, enfim, recomendo.

I bought a new computer with a 256 GB NVMe drive to boot from, and a 2GB hard drive for storage. The hard drive was slow, and it was apparent when running disk intensive operations like loading and running a virtual machine.
