SAMSUNG 970 EVO Plus SSD 1TB NVMe M.2 Internal Solid State Hard Drive, V-NAND Technology, Storage and Memory Expansion for Gaming, Graphics w/ Heat Control, Max Speed, MZ-V7S1T0B/AM

Great and compatible Samsung quality and speed!

The card worked fine for me. Easy to install and fit my Asus motherboard perfectly. It does not come with screws or standoffs, so you should order some along with it.

I have a Dell Vostro 5590 laptop and ran into trouble when trying to clone its drive to the new Samsung SSD. For Samsung cloning utility to work, you MUST ensure in the BIOS that the SATA setting uses AHCI and not RAID. Trouble is, when you change that setting, you usually are required to re-install the OS which kind of defeats the purpose of cloning. I cant post links in this review, but do a search for Switch RAID to AHCI without reinstalling Windows 10 and you will find command line instructions on how to do it. Another wise suggestion is to disable BitLocker if you have it enabled. Otherwise youll need the BitLocker key, which even if you have it, is a 30 digit number to type in every time you boot into Safe mode. It takes a while to Disable BitLocker, be prepared. Once those two items were taken care of, the cloning to the new Samsung SSD went smoothly. It even cloned my Ubuntu WSL2 partition successfully. Regarding the Ubuntu partition--if you search you can find instructions on how to export your distro for later import. I exported to another drive just to be safe but because the cloning went fine I didnt need this backup.

Ive upgraded all my old laptops (Mac, PC) and desktops with Samsung NVMe M.2 and SATA SSD. With the sale price for 2TB, there is just no excuse not to replace HDDs with appropriate adapters if needed.

The product listing doesnt clearly indicate that this is incompatible with the PS5. The information is eventually mentioned minutely, but its really important that it be in the product description at the top.

I purchased this nvme really for extra storage of my battlefield games.( Battlefield1,3,4,5,) Having upgraded from a Samsung 850 pro ssd 250gb .Does this nvme drive enhance,speed up performance? Not really.Load games quicker! not really .Improve performance when gaming? Not really. So the samsung 850pro was the best ssd anyway, so i was not surprised ref performance .ps I have also installed another fan below this drive as it can get warm when using samsung magician software to test for performance.When im gaming it runs at aprox 38/45 degrees so its good.Hope this helps :)

Good

Its very fast. Its faster than SATA SSDs, but I also care that I dont have any nasty SATA cables strung across my build.

The hardware installation was straightforward using a PCIe adapter board. SSD setup using Windows 10 Pro software and drivers was equally simple and uneventful. The Samsung SSD software was downloaded and provides reasonable statusing of drive function. Everything works as advertised :0).

Great deal super fast shipping
