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

It works phenomenally. Very fast and very large. Im happy with it.

Great for gaming. My kid says it works great on his computer.

I bought my Evo 870 exactly a year ago to run my xbox one x through it. Initially, the SSD was running amazing but over the summer I noticed that the performance started to slow down but not enough that I had to be concerned about. As November approached my Xbox console started to crash once in a while including loose of save game data, I thought it was a Xbox issue so I ignored it but my mid December my console started to crash almost every day including loose of data, again I thought it was a Xbox issue so I used all their recommended solutions like recovering the console, and power cycling it. The issue still continued which resulted me not gamingon Xbox anymore. I never assumed the issue was with my SSD due to Samsung great reputation in this category but after doing an extensive research I just found out that SSDs are dying faster than other SSDs regardless of which model you are running. For now I have switched back to my old HDD that came with Xbox one x and everything is running fine again. I am in communication with Samsung support via phone call but lets just say they are not understanding my problem properly. I dont have access to a PC so I cant take my SSD out of my xbox and connected with a PC to running their software mitigation program.

Definitely made the computer run better.

This was an upgrade for my existing hard drive in an HP Pavilion laptop. The old hard drive was a regular spinning platter using the SATA protocol.

Bon SSD tel que décrit

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.

Great way to add new life to an old computer

My sons computer is not recognizing the drive and we cant get it to work. Checked cables. Ports for functionality with another ssd and they all work. Even worse our return windo is closed so we are stuck with an expensive paperweight This drive is junk spend your money elsewhere.

Product met expectations. Thank you.
