I'm still installing. Had to dig out an old motherboard to find screws for this. Really? And now I can't find a driver. I'm sure I won't be disappointed with performance, but this is kind of a drag.

Fast read and write. One of the fastest, if not the fastest M.2 SSD and the price is reasonable vs other major brand.

Good buy. The bad thing is the Samsung magician tool, no magic at all. My friend died because the app would not update the firmware.

Very fast Gen 4 drive. For the right price this is one of the best values I've seen for an NVMe drive. Great longevity and great real world performance.

I bought this because it was listed as being compatible with the PS5. Finally got around to installing it just to find out it is, in fact, not compatible with the PS5. I'm assuming I'm outside my return/exchange policy as well. Very disconcerting.

It works fine. Great to have the extra space. I did have some initial blue screen issues Iwas able to resolve. The screw hole sizes to secure the drives are different. I had to use a motherboard screw. :-(

Quality SSD (read the reviews online): very fast, lots of room, easy to install. Glad I replaced my 256GB SSD, giving me lots of room to grow.

A bit slower than my 990 Pro and 980 Pro, but does the job. Not issues yet with the device or microcode.

I have always had great luck with Samsung products. They perform as advertised or better. I have never had a problem. All my M2 memory is Samsung and I have all capacities from 500's to 2tb's.

I love this nvme ssd card because it is blazingly fast. I couldn't imagine my OS on a regular ssd or a especially a standard hard drive. Knowing that it is of the best quality and backed by an excellent warranty, which Samsung is known for, I can sleep at night like a baby. I love my computer even more. Also, I am really into Samsung's Magician software.
More space on my C: drive.
