Best Quality and reliability

I research this ssd "Samsung - 850 Evo 500gb Internal Serial Ata Solid State Drive For Laptops" for a longtime on very different web-pages and asked my friends for there experience.
I chose it over cheaper versions because of the lifetime and speed. It is not as expensive as the PRO version (10 year warranty) because I need it only to last 5years as an upgrade in my old laptop.
After 5 years i will buy a new laptop and by then they will have better hard drives and software.

It's right next to my bed and provides recharging power for my GALAXY S7 and my iPad over night. It feeds the night lamp and my humidifier with electricity, so I can stay charged and moist all night.
Hey, and the price is right, ... many chargers cost more.

It works now over a year and the only problem I had was, that I misplaced the first one. Now I am happy again, because I found the old one and keep one in the Van to never run out with juice again.
I know, its a little too pricey, I cried for 5 minutes when I had to buy it. "Just don't loose it," I tell to myself!!!

Still working after over a year.
I used the security software which comes with it to protect my personal DATA. Gave me peace of mind in cases I loose it. Just make sure to have the password somewhere backed up, because there is no recovery option.

Still working perfectly after a year ...

Verified Purchase:Yes
Still working perfectly after a year ... I am a musician traveling Nation Wide through the USA and never had a problem to find a spot with this GPS System.
I recommend to download all software for your computer and update all maps on a yearly base.
It holds exactly 1000 custom favorites which I filled up in an year, what is too less for me, a 40,000 miles a year traveler. To make space for my new events, I had to go through all saved favorites and delete the double once and the place I am sure I do not need. That was quite some time and also fun, because I got to remember were I have been, all over the place, a thousand places! ... So I gave it one star less for that.
And YES, I have also a Smart Phone with GOOGLE MAPS which could do the job, but think about the data that would eat, and what about the places without cell reception? I save the data for tracking my hiking adventures and use the Garmin - nüvi 2689LMT 6 GPS for my Touring Van.

YES, BUT

Verified Purchase:Yes
I used it for some time. BUT I should have listened to the sales person who warned me that it does not fit perfectly on my SAMSUNG GALAXY S7 Cell Phone. It had a 2mm ring around the whole display, where it did not attach to the glass screen, which is curved backwards.
I wanted some protection against scratches, so I left it on until these edge, which did not bend to the form of the glass, collected to much dirt and i removed it.
So, 2 points for the time it worked.
BUT: Do NOT use it for the SAMSUNG GALAXY S7 !!!

Will never run out off battery again
on November 21, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
I got this "Pocketjuice Portable Charger" for charging my cell phone while tracking my hiking and making photos. The GPS and the photo making killed the battery of my cell phone much too fast. THAT'S NOW FIXED thanks to the 7800mA extra-charge.
1. I wish the product would be a little smaller, but I did not find anything else with the mA I needed (above 7000mA). Its like having 2 cell phones with you.
2. It fast charges my Samsung S7, which not all portable power-packs can do.
3. It lasts for 3 charges (not 4 like in the description).
4. Comes with a very short usb cable at home, which is very practical.
Don't buy any portable power below 7000mA!!! For a day hike with GPS tracking and photos, perhaps a view short videos, you will need this amount of mA.
My worries of running out of power is over.

This Samsung 850 EVO MZ-75E1T0B/AM solid state drive features 3D V-NAND technology to provide enhanced performance while taking up minimal space in your compatible Windows computer. The 1TB capacity provides plenty of space for media and more.
 

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!
YES!

I am not familiar with the new solid state drives. Would like to get some general information and how much to purchase and install into existing emachines desktop with windows 10? Thanks, Don

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 ...

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.

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 ( buy a new one every 5 years!!!). (5 computer years is like 72 human years!).

2. Upgrade the Video card (DESKTOP: Nvidia 1080). Laptops video cards are mostly not upgrade able.
3. Upgrade to SSD for the OS.
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.

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.
