Samsung is great at all products!

I am not surprised to be writing this; because I am so happy with all the other Samsung products I own. The hard drive performance is everything I expected. I have several Samsung TV's and a Samsung monitor; all of which I love everything about them. Buying a Samsung SSD was a no brainer! The only reason I only gave it 4 stars for value; my personal feeling is, ALL SSD's are still overpriced.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Fantastic Installation and Performance

This was my second try at installing an SSD into my 2012 laptop. Over a year ago I had purchased a competing product and fought to install it. I imaged, cloned, used EasyBCD but I just could not get it to boot regularly. In fact, it would never "restart" but would boot if I turned off the computer then turned it back on. I gave up on it and installed a 7200 RPM HD. Oddly enough the competing product (I bought 3) installed and booted into an 7 year old laptop and a 9 year old desktop.
In 2015 I bought this 850 EVO. I had read the reviews for this around the time I had bought the competing SSDs but the price was nearly $200 for a 250GB SSD so I passed. I wish I hadn't. The EVO installed so easily, sooooo easily. I can't believe how easily it installed. It didn't care whether I booted from EUFI, or Legacy, or BCD or any other cryptic name the gearheads use when they build these things. I didn't have to know anything. This thing was basically plug and play. I lost a year of SSD speediness because I was being cheap.
I have had this EVO for a few months now. There are no heat or noise issues you might get from a regular hard drive. The computer boots faster than it had ever before. The only thing that seems to slow it down is program incompatibility between my operating system and my old school word processor.
Every Samsung product I have ever owned has been a delight. Maybe they will make cars some day.
Pros: Durable, Lightweight, easy installation
I would recommend this to a friend!

This drive is exceptionally fast compared to other ssd for the price. It is actually very fast regardless of price, but you can find faster for 1.5x$. I will never buy anything else, well at least for this decade or so.
Pros: Inexpensive, Durable, Lightweight, fast performance
