Noticeable performance boost

If you are in the market for an SSD, this should be your first choice. The 840 EVO series is phenomenal, just take a look at some of the reviews. The 250GB model has improved speeds over the 120GB, so this should be the minimal size you're looking for.

Best cosummer SSD in the market

I have Crucial and Adata. The Samsong is the best. The software came with it is a plus. The Migration software make the installation very easy and the Turbowrite makes the different on speed. It took less than an hour to transfer the OS & date from my Laptop and replce the HD.

Package was opened before

I've got the SSD in a package which was obviously opened before. I did not notice any information on the website while buying. I give 2 starts as the price was 15$ lower than typical competition. -T
