> 3 dayExcellent product, easy to install. Does not come with screw if you do not have a stand off post or screw or a kit from amazon for $7.00. It will come with screwdriver and like 5 standoffs and 5 screws. For anyone who hasnt installed one. Locate your m.2 slot on your Mobo(Motherboard). Make sure you got the correct keying. M key vs B/M key. If your unsure check with your mobo supplier. Okay first install standoff post. Just until it stops. This is not car mechanics there is not ft lbs of torque. So be gentle. Slide the m.2 into its slot. Its going to take a little push to get it to slide in. It will be at a 45ish degree angle about the post. Then with 1 finger push it flat to the stand off. The stand off post is what it rests on to make it flat. Take the stand off screw and screw it into the stand off post. The card should be held down by the screw. Thats it your done. 2nd tip, if you have multiple m.2 slots pick the one farthest from your graphics card or cpu especially if you overclock. The drives run warm already dont want to make it hotter with Overclocked parts. You will have to partition the drive once installed. As far as cloning goes. Samsung does have cloning software on there website. However be sure if you clone windows you clone it in uefi mode or it will not work right. If your unsure my suggestion is to do a reinstall of windows onto your new m.2. Its stupid fast install. Will be buying more of these. They do truely out preform on read/write speeds compared to pretty much every other manufacturer. The only other one that comes close is the WesternDigital black edition. But still edged out by Samsung. If you want the best and expect the best, get this. If you care about price over performace, well then you could pick up any m.2 and it will be faster then an ssd.

> 3 daySamsung has always produced great products and their NVME SSDs are top of the line. I upgraded from the Samsung 860 EVO SATA, and though from SSD to SSD, I still can see a performance boost. Initially, i was concerned the m.2 SSD was heating up to around 50 deg C seen in the Samsung Magician App due to insufficient airflow being so close to the motherboard, which got me worried about the heat affecting the lifespan of the product. But after a week, it has settled down to around 38 Deg C, which I am still not sure of the reason. But overall, great product, great price from Amazon, and great performance!

> 3 dayI bought a Lenovo Thinkpad T490 with 256GB SSD, cheaper that way. I now bought this SSD to upgrade the storage. Easy to install and blazingly fast. I run a couple of VMs and I can perceive a major improvement in performance and response of the VMs and Host.

20-11-2024it works. It was a bit difficult to assemble but once I got the SSD all the way in the slot it went together fine. Seems to be built well and the aluminum case does a decent job of heat dissipation.

> 3 dayFini les vieux disques durs mécaniques (5400 et 7200 R.P.M.) Maintenant la technologie est bien présente et cest bien tant mieux. Nous avons maintenant des machines qui tirent en masse, très rapide et les d.d. devaient suivre lévolution de la machine. Nous y sommes et ce produit répond bien à cela. Je recommande ce produit mais attention.... Vérifiez vos cartes maîtresse pour savoir si vous avez la prise M.2. dessus sinon votre achat sera inutile.
