SAMSUNG 850 EVO 500GB 2.5-Inch SATA III Internal SSD (MZ-75E500B/AM)

I originally posted a negative review because it was running slowly and getting BSODs, but then I realized that I was running it in IDE mode instead of AHCI mode. After switching it over and reinstalling Windows, it runs great!

This drive is fantastic. Im so glad these things finally came down in price as Ive been waiting to upgrade the hard drive on my Macbook Pro 13 mid 2012. Installation took less than 5 minutes thanks to a quick youtube video and I set up the drive using a Time Machine backup from my external hard drive. The difference in read/write speeds was 13/14 times faster, respectively. Boot time is at 10 seconds; from the time I turn on the computer to the time I can click a program. No more beachball when trying to open programs and shut down is just as quick too. This drive was definitely worth the price. Great value!

Samsung is the best ssd brand

Great product that comes with very friendly software that makes the Operating System transition from a regular hard-drive to solid state very easy.

I was hesitating if I really need to upgrade the hard drive for my laptop - it turned out to be a wise decision! Right now my 4 years old laptop becomes excellent again - quiet, fast, just like what I had years ago. Highly recommend!

This saved my McBook Pro 13 2011. I also got 16gb RAM and now my laptop is as fast as an iPad. I was about to throw it away and now its super fast.

I am very happy with it because my Toshiba laptop boots faster and programs run smoother. However, it has minor connection issues if you use a slower rated external hard drive. If you open and close a proram, then immediately open another program one second later, it may freeze or error because it may be faster than your processor or RAM memory can handle. I have learned to count to three before I open a second prgram.

Used this to replace the old hard disk drive in my computer. Its been working great. Was an ease to install the operating system.

I bought this SSD for may mac Pro and Im super pleased with the performance of it. Write and Read speeds over 250 MGs per second on the SATA Bus, perhaps the Read & Write speeds will be higher if place the SSD on a PCI-e card. Boot time of 20-25 sec. Super pleased with the performance.

This is Blazing fast. I just have my operating system and a few core programs on this, the 500 GB might have been overkill but the difference between this and the 250 was only 50 bucks. Plug and play, super easy.
