Craftsmanship

The memory card hold up well and isnt easy to ruin. I got mine wet on time and all my files were still in good shape. I'm very happy with it and couldn't ask for more better in craftsmanship

Nice sturdy storage solution

I had way too many photos and videos on my phone but I did not want to simply get a small thumb drive. This drive was a decent price and presented itself as an option. Drive has been excellent with respect to download speed, ease of use, and construction. While it is substantial enough, I can basically stick it in a small bag with the cord, I don't anticipate it's breaking anytime soon. I recommend the product and will visit back in a year or so to see if it maintains it's excellence.

Excellent reliability and endurance

The Samsung 870 EVO 1TB SSD is one of the most reliable and popular SATA drives on the market. With its proven track record, it offers excellent performance, long-lasting endurance, and broad compatibility for both desktops and laptops. In terms of speed, the 870 EVO delivers up to 560 MB/s sequential read and 530 MB/s sequential write speeds. While it cannot match the performance of NVMe SSDs, it is still one of the fastest options available for SATA, making it ideal for users upgrading from older hard drives or slower SSDs. Everyday tasks like booting up, loading applications, and transferring files feel much faster and smoother. Durability is another strong point. Samsung's V-NAND technology and Intelligent TurboWrite help maintain performance over time, and the drive comes with a 5-year limited warranty. With a rated endurance of up to 600 TBW, it is built to last even under heavy workloads. Installation is simple thanks to its 2.5-inch form factor, and Samsung's Magician software provides useful tools for drive health monitoring, firmware updates, and optimization. Overall, the Samsung 870 EVO 1TB is a great choice for anyone seeking a balance of speed, reliability, and affordability in a SATA SSD. It's especially recommended for users upgrading older systems that do not support NVMe drives.

Built Like A Tank With A Jet Engine

I've bought multiple of those model over the years, starting in roughly 2015, every single one is still perfectly functional and performing above the listed spec. This is my go-to storage device, and Samsung overall is the first name I think of when it comes to SSDs

Great product of its time, no regrets buying it.

This product has been running inside of my gaming PC since 2020, has gone through much rewrites, and is still running till this day. Great buy when it was new, but now I see the price has gone up. There are better buys now (especially from Samsung), but this was a very good purchase that I have no regrets on. Love this product, even if the world shifted to M.2.

Peak EVO-lution : Samsung 870

Solid piece of hardware, has never let me down. Stored so much content on it from my hiking videos to old screenshots from games I used to play. Pretty speedy storage, downloading large apps is a breeze. Very responsive and efficient. Can't go wrong with this staple piece of hardware.

Great storage and great speed. I was looking for some extra capacity when it came down to storage and this is a great choice. Yes it might a big purchase, but I always says that you can't put a price on a priceless product and this is what it is.
