Bought it for video editing, really great

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this computer for video editing because it was the best bang for the buck. I upgraded the ram to 32gb and added a 2nd SSD. The 2TB hard drive is good enough for storage, but not fast enough for working on big video files in 4k. The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 with 8gb ram is superb for my projects and allows multiple 4k monitors. This computer has no bays for CD burners, so I bought one and just placed it on top of the case.

I needed it for test listening my CD Masters. When moving it around while listening, you really need the anti shock switched on, which gives you 60 seconds of skip protection so your music isn't interrupted. I will also use it for my CD retail, for costumers to listen to my CD's, like the quality of sound.

Simple does it and its portable.

4TB portable storage was what I needed and it is small enough to go with me on the road for 3 month. I was tiered to run out of storage on my travels. For my video editing I have an 1TB SSD in a portable case, but for the finished products I don't need that speed.

It's 2017 and they are still working great.

I bought them 3 years ago and use them in my music studio to view all the tools of my software on this 2 monitors and my laptop monitor ( so 3 monitors all together).
Depending on your video card, you will need a USB-to-HDMI adapter to use 3 monitors at the same time.

Still working, BUT.

I am happy that I hooked it up to my wireless router, but I do not really know what I am doing and sometimes the older versions of my 3 computers do not view this network hard-drive, and I have no idea why?
After restarting the computer this network hard drive shows up again.
The main advantage is, that when you store files on this NETWORK DRIVE, they are accessible from all computers on your NETWORK.

Speed up your Computer!
on March 15, 2017
Posted by: PeterAK
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is my second SSD from SAMSUNG. I had first the 500GB version for my video files on my desktop (the OS was already on a SSD, but the data needs to be on a separate SSD to speed up reading), and now the "Samsung - 850 EVO 1TB Internal Sata III Solid State Drive - Black" version for my Laptops main hard-drive, OS.
If money is no problem, take the "pro" version of this hard-drive. Otherwise the "850 EVO" last long enough until you have to upgrade your whole computer (every 5 years!!!). (5 computer years is like 72 human years!)
There are 4 important ways to speed-up your computer:
1. Upgrade the ram to the maximum (I did)
2. Upgrade the Video card (I did Nvidia 1080)
3. Upgrade to SSD (now I did for my Laptop)
4. Separate the OS system from the data storage (Have 2 SSD's, one for data, and one for the OS).
BUT to make it clear, the biggest impact is the SSD upgrade for the OS.
OS = Operating System (like Windows 10, or ... )
Hope that helps you ...

Using them for over 3 years now!!! GREAT!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I am using this AA Duracell Rechargeable Batteries now for over 3 years. Originally I bought them at SamsClub, but now with the price-matching at BEST BUY, I bought them here!!!!
With 2450mA and an average of 1.25-1.4V they work just fine with my Sennheiser Wires-less equipment and my Roland Speakers. Some utilities need 1.5V, but not mine. This rechargeable hold the main V of 1.3 the longest. This batteries work longer in my equipment then regular throw-a-way batteries!
I am charging them with my "Powerex MH-C800S 8-Cell Smart Charger for AA / AAA NiMH / NiCD" which takes only 2.5 hours, and they are still running great. I bought 3 x 4batteries again, because I need more batteries available, so I do not have to recharge them during my 3 day GIGs. Also I recommend to recharge them after every use. They loose very slowly there charge, The have still 75% CHARGE after a year of not using, real slow discharge batteries!

They did it, it works and so far so good, no leaks and the peace of mind, that we got a professional installation and are insured and protected including the Geek Squad plan.
Why save money (and so little) and be at risk?

Did not know if I need it, but better save than sorry. I wanted to make sure that there was no delay in the delivery and installation process of our new fridge.And, we actually need this part to replace the old connection.
BUT I also knew, that it was very easy to return the part if it was not necessary.

You're excited to buy a new refrigerator or freezer — now, make sure to protect it. Geek Squad® Protection enhances your manufacturer warranty and gives you extended coverage when the warranty ends. Geek Squad Protection often covers important repairs that your manufacturer warranty doesn't (like failure due to a power surge). If something goes wrong after the manufacturer warranty ends, rest easy; you won't be stuck with a huge repair bill. Geek Squad Protection has your back and will take care of any covered repairs or replacement of your product.*

Does it fit on a Dell XPS 15?

I have a Dell XPS 15 notebook - model L502x. Does this drive replace the notebook's HDD?

Thanks!

Difference between ssd and ssd pro

SSD pro has a longer warranty, so should last longer.

Since I would replace/upgrade my computer every 5 years, I would put the OS (Operating system on a regular SSD and the data on a SSD PRO. When upgrading to a new computer, you can remove the old data SSD and place it in the new desktop or in an external drive compartment. In this way you save yourself time to transfer the data. Samsung lets you choose in the SSD setup between "Performance" and "Data-security."

So, choose "High performance" for the Operating System (like Windows 10) and "Data-security" for the DATA-Drive.

I recommend the "Samsung - 850 EVO 500GB Internal Sata III Solid State Drive" for any computers OS, no matter Laptop or desktop. 250GB is sometimes to small.

4. Separate the OS system from the data storage, have 2 SSD's, one for data, and one for the OS.

BUT to make it clear, the biggest impact is the SSD upgrade for the OS and the separation, have the data on a second SSD.

The NETGEAR AC1200 WiFi USB 3.0 Adapter with high-gain antennas provides 3x faster access than USB 2.0. Wirelessly connect your notebook or desktop computer to an 11ac network for applications such as lag-free, multiple HD streams throughout your home.
 

Is this wifi adapter any good for PC gaming?

YES, very fast and reliable! Just make sure that you are not too far away from the router, also, this is the strongest receiver I ever had. Of-cause you need the right router with it which deliverers 5000MHZ.
