just as advertised with plenty of storage 1TB ssd by crucial!!!

I recently received this product on the mail and immediately noticed something very odd. Unlike the previous one I bought a year ago, this one came packed in a plain white box. It did not come in a fancy branded marketing box, the glossy type with the picture and the description of the product on the outside. So now I am wondering if this Mickey Mouse type of box (plain with a couple of barcodes and a label that reads Mot for Retail Sale) means that this is not the real product but a reap off or if this is really refurbished. Very disappointed and now I am thinking of returning this item and go for another brand.

I only buy Samsung SSD’s. Generally, either 500 GB or 1TB versions meet my needs. I’ve worked with a few other brands, some didn’t last long, and had poor reviews, but never an issue with the two dozen Samsung EVO units I’ve purchased.

Replaced an HDD with this and man my hp probook 450g1 is lightning fast now running Linux Mint 20...Id give it more stars if I could.. Highly satisfied to say the least

Dead on arrival. Would not identify. Did not show warmth on thermal scan. DOA.

Complete diagnostic software included. SSD worked right out of the box.

Got these on two W10 computers as the C: drive. Both come back from SLEEP in about three seconds? The supplied Samsung migration program is the cats meow. It works, and is easy to use. You will end up with an SSD that has your C: drive on it. I neglected to mention that I have ALWAYS partitioned my hard drives so that my data is not on the C: drive, where WINDOWS lives? Your experience will probably vary. Yar! Buy one. Keep your other HDD for data. ...

I went from a hard drive to SSD this is an awesome product would recommend to anyone have not had issues at all

Great upgrade over the original SATA drive. It was super-easy to install, and makes the computer run so much better. Recommend!

Regular hard drives suck. SSDs are easier to install and are the future of computer storage
