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

Installed quick, made my 6 year old computer feel faster than it was brand new!

It does exactly what its supposed to

A must for an older computer that you dont want to throw away yet. My laptop is 7 years old. It powers up in 30 seconds and runs everything smoothly now.

I t was very effective in speeding performance. Software worked easily.

Ordered one and called Samsung for help installing. Told by Samsung that SSD more than likely defective. Sent back SSD and ordered another. Second time with Samsung, after 30 minutes with support, told that SSD is not compatible with my older system even though it showed up as compatible. Still waiting for refunds.

The QVO series has a serious failing -- large writes bog down badly. When the write cache gets full, the driver performance TANKS. The screenshot shows trying to write a file around 1.8Gb. As you can see, it was fast for a while, then dropped precipitously. At the point the screenshot was taken, it was showing 710 KB/s (Yes, KILOBYTES per second). It actually went to 0 a few times. If you never do much writing, the drive would probably be OK, but not for anything large. Buyer Beware! Luckily, Amazon return policy is very good.

So I bought this item when it was like 140 something plus tax. So I wait and it refunded itself even though I didnt want a refund so I had to buy it again and its now 160 plus tax thats like 180 so wtf I need answers wtf did you refund it when I didnt ask for it

Easy install on my PS4 Pro.

The seal on the ssd box was already broken and the ssd was missing from it. So begins my arduous process of getting this replaced or refunded....

No cons, great product
