SAMSUNG 860 EVO MZ-76E500E 500 GB Solid State Drive - SATA (SATA/600) - 2.5 Drive - Internal - 550 MB/s Maximum Read Transfer Rate - 520 MB/s Maximum Write Transfer Rate - 256-bit Encryption Standard

Not for retail sale, something is not on the up and up.

I had to purchase a cable to connect the SATA 3.0 to USB. No biggie got one on Amazon. Plugged the SSD into the cable, then into the laptop, and used the Samsung software to copy/mirror/transfer the old hard drive. No hitches and copied perfectly. Installed this in the older laptop and now it boots lightning fast. I love it and highly recommend this product. It gave my old 17 laptop new life (along with 4 gig memory) I am beyond pleased.

Works good

Easy to install and it helped

good

The drive is perfectly fine, but I worry about the warranty. This drive I received was packaged as a OEM Not for Retail Sale drive. Many OEM products do not receive end-user warranties from the manufacturer. The end-user is expected to go through the computer manufacturer who installed the drive. So if my drive fails, who do I go to on the warranty? Amazon? Performance Tech?

I have been buying the EVO series since they vame out and havent had a single problem. They are fast and run cool. All around its a great SSD.

Item arrived as described. Thank you.

My third Samsung 860 EVO drive. Love them.

Tremendo equipo
