Nice product, fast but runs at high temperature

I chose Samsung 850EVO (250GB) to upgrade the main hard drive of my Thinkpad T440p for performance. The product is light, fast and economical but runs at high temperature typically at 42C (108F) which is higher than my previous HDDs. This keeps fan running and hence makes the system a bit noisy. The performance for the past 8 months has been good with slight drop in average read speed and increase in access time. The long term performance/durability would require more time.
Pros: Inexpensive, Lightweight
Cons: higher operating temperature
I would recommend this to a friend!

Nothing not to love

If you are thinking about buying this, just do it. You won't be disappointed.
The only complaint I have is that the accompanying Magician software still doesn't recognize Windows 10, but that is only a problem if you want to enable RAPID mode.
If that isn't a deal breaker, then I fully recommend this drive.
Pros: fast, energy efficient
I would recommend this to a friend!

Samsung SSDs Rock!

Samsung has made it even easier to migrate to SSDs with their cloning software. This sets them apart from other SSD providers, in my opinion. Great product, easy to install, looks good...
Pros: Inexpensive, Lightweight, great software.

Great SSD and easy install

The included Migration software was easy to use and the included Magician software made optimization clear and straight forward. For a non tech person like me, the whole process of install, migrate, and optimize, went better than I had expected.
Pros: performance vs. hhd
I would recommend this to a friend!

SSD ROCKS!

WOW !
SSD is great, it's given new life to an aging 2008 computer.
I'm using the SSD as a boot drive and my computer is so much faster & responsive
than it was with the stock 5200RPM Hard Drive.
I look forward to the day that SSD can give me 4 to 8 TB drives.
