Samsung SSD 860 EVO 1TB 2.5 Inch SATA III Internal SSD (MZ-76E1T0B/AM)

I bought this for my Xbox One to cut down on loading times. It worked exactly as expected and makes loading less aggravating. I’ve used it on the likes of Red Dead Redemption 2, Forza Horizon 4, and Destiny 2. All load faster than the internal HDD. It is an internal drive, so an enclosure will be needed to keep it safe. Or at least a USB 3.0 adapter to connect it to the Xbox.

Installed in 7 year old laptop that took 5+ min to boot, took a little bit to open laptop but easy to install, boot time now 20 sec.

I purchased this drive based on years of experience with Samsung SSDs and was not disappointed. This drive is installed as the boot drive in my new rackmount server. Its fast and runs cool which were my two main requirements. It comes in multiple sizes but since this only houses the OS for my server, the 250gb drive was appropriate.

i have an older computer that is use for backup. slow boot up... drink a cup of coffee and eat a donut. my hard drive went out and out this SSD in and WOW... thing boots in 28 seconds... heck... the old spin hard drive was the bottle neck. this has made getting on the backup computer less painful... had to give up the coffee and donuts though.

It works so well every time. It cloned my OS drive with ease and hassle free. This my second and will buy again as needed.

We bought two of these, for two of our four computers in the house. We had less-than stellar experiences with another brand, so we were kind of holding our breath.

Ive purchased many of these. In 99% of the cases, theyre great. Every so often Ill encounter a system with an AMD chipset that these wont work in. If youre planning on using this in an AMD Chipset, do your web homework to make sure the motherboard is compatible. Most of the time they work great. In the AMD cases that Ive experienced.. the IO controller says that it is getting errors from the hard drive and this triggers a retry. The retry works... but the system slows to a crawl. Intel chipset, no problems with the same drive.

I bought this SSD when my M.2 that i have on my gaming rig was almost maxed out, the Installation of this item was very simple and it worked great right out of the box i do however have to say that it is not as fast as the m.2 but that really does not matter to me because it is still better than a regular HDD. so far i have put rainbow six siege , steam , Iron sight game , Call of duty modern warfare and everything works fine . i will be buying a 4T size in december and i would definitely recommend this SSD to any one who will be using it for gaming and even using premier pro although when exporting videos from premier pro to the ssd do take about 10 minutes longer than it would take to export to my m.2 SSD drive im still ok with that .

I downloaded and installed Samsung Magician and followed the instructions to Clone my 840 EVO SSD to my new 860 EVO SSD.

Updated my HP 15 cheap laptop and it runs like a racehorse. I followed one reviewers directions and Googled Samsung Migration Tool and it did the job with little effort on my part. I already had a sata connector so all went well. I found a YouTuber that held my hand through every step of the process of taking apart the HP 15 and exchanging the drives. Ricardo Gardener was an excellent teacher with every bit of the process carefully explained and demonstrated. Very happy customer here.
