I was having issues and asked for the drive to be replaced. WD & Seagate have an advanced replacement where I give them a credit card, they ship me the replacement & I ship the old drive back. Samsung does not do this, this is their policy: We do Repair First procedure now.

I just got it for my laptop and it was really it to migrate everything with the Samsung migration software. And it is very fast : my laptop now boots in about 8-10 secs, which is great for me.

Fast SSD; Good price; Looks great; Easy migration software

Just what the doctor ordered for my gaming laptop Lenovo Y50-70. The Crystal Disk Mark 5 and AS SSD scores are off the roof after enabling the RAPID and Over-provisioning function using Samsung Magacian (see attached pics). The SSD has catapulted the performance of my laptop.

Installed the 1TB 850 EVO as my factory hard drive was failing. Admittedly I dont really know what I'm doing here, but after gettting the proper SATA-USB3 cable the installation was fairly painless. My BIOS time is now less than 4Sec, Protools loads in probably less than 10sec.

A month ago I purchased the EVO 850 mSATA variant and was so impressed, I decided to upgrade my Corsair Force GS 240GB SSD with this item. Well, I am so glad I did. Not only am I getting a larger SSD (500GB vs 240GB), but one blazing fast SSD and totally a reliable one as well.

Installation was easy. Performance was greatly improved, most seen at startup and shutdown. Just order Item 9098819 to clone the old hard drive to the new hard drive. This item is a Universal SSD Cloning Kit for Win XP thru Win 10. It is suitable for anyone who can follow the on-screen directions.

installed this on 2 different computer and it increased boot and load time of games from your standard hard drive. Windows 10 boots within 15 seconds from a complete power off state. Total load time with 20 background apps is about 30 seconds.

Out of the box, into the machine. Minimal fuss and it just works. It also delivers exactly what it says it will. Everyone should get an SSD, when you do you could do a lot worse than one of these.

You will see much improved boot times, and applications will open considerably faster. they also improve battery life on laptops as these do not have motors or mechanical They are pretty much the best upgrade you can do to a PC or Mac.
