SAMSUNG 870 QVO SATA III SSD 8TB 2.5 Internal Solid State Drive, Upgrade Desktop PC or Laptop Memory and Storage for IT Pros, Creators, Everyday Users, MZ-77Q8T0B

Lo mismo que un SSD convencional, nada del otro mundo por el precio

Perfect drive to give an aged desktop with a spindle hard drive an easy upgrade to make it faster

One day I went to turn on my PC & was met with a message no boot device detected after this I installed the Samsung 870 qvo 1TB SSD to my test rig & was met with the same message no boot device detected. After this I threw a spare 128GB Kingston SSD into both machines detected & booted as normal. I spent a lot of money (to me) on this Samsung SSD for the brand recognition & because I thought it would be a good investment, but that turned out not to be the case. Ill message the seller to try & get a replacement but I dont have much faith in corporations doing the right thing. Oddly enough, the product support window from Amazon closed the same month my Samsung SSD mysteriously stopped working, go figure.

Ive been doing computers for three decades and this has been the single worst drive I have ever used. I bought it for some external storage for the Xbox, but the system kept losing track of the drive and its contents. Trying several different enclosures on two different machines (Series X and S) made no difference. Then I tried using it for some movie storage, but the file transfer rate was abismal. I read somewhere this specific drive chokes on the transfer of large files. So I began using it for some MP3 storage. The transfer rate was better, but then the contents got locked in a GPT Protective Partition. Seriously. Are you kidding me? Whilst I am well out of the return window, I still FEEL a full refund is due for all this drive has done for me. I dont even know anyone I dislike enough that I might give to.

I wanted to build a quiet NAS for my home network with a Raspberry Pi. These SSDs fit the bill nicely, since I couldnt find any cheap hard drives in as large a capacity, and I dont have the budget for 100TB enterprise SSDs.

Works great and the quality is obvious. Lot of and lots of storage with the 4TB. A bit on the pricey side, but then, one usually has to pay for quality--and you often get what you pay for ... and I believe I did in this case!

I think the majority of users will not even notice, but these things are SLOW when performing large file transfers. Were talking HDD level of performance for concurrent writes once you fill the SLC cache. The SLC cache is something like < 80GB, after that you get about 160MBps writes.

I connected the drive via a USB cable to my Toshiba Satellite C55-C and installed both the Magician and cloning software. I rebooted and made sure that the cloning software was the only thing running and put the laptop on airplane mode so it wouldnt be interrupted. Two hours after the start it was at 99% complete and a few minutes later it reported that the operation was interrupted. The event manager reported the following:

Folders magically disappear? One second, Im editing a video project for a client and then - suddenly - a portion of the footage disconnects from my editor. No problem right? Just restart the progam... hmm still not there. Maybe Ill go look at the files and wow... One of 12 folders suddenly vanished into thin air. Not in the trash either...

Bought it for hard drive upgrade nothing wrong with it very good
