just amazing, even on my sata 3Gb/s it still gets a 7.8 and loads faster than my last SSD.
Pros: fast, reliable
Cons: a little pricey but worth it
I would recommend this to a friend!

Still a tad pricey...

While Samsung makes some of the best SSD's on the market, some of their products still remain a tad pricey for the performance and per GB cost.
I just picked this drive up yesterday and already its made a marked improvement over my 64gb Samsung 830 SSD. I will continue to support Samsung SSD's so long as they continue to be reliable and speedy, but I really wish they would make some things a little more affordable.
Pros: Lightweight, fast, samsung quality
Cons: slightly expensive
I would recommend this to a friend!

Been using a couple of these for a few days now. Been flawless to date
Magician software works well also. Lets you optimize ( trim ) or Secure Erase the drive.
I would recommend this to a friend!

A very good SSD for my new computer

I have installed it with an asus p8z77-v pro. And a new windows 8 pro 64bits.
I choose it to have a fast hard drive for my PC game.
And it's really fast when I launch FSX or another more recent game. Like F1 2012, Max Payne 3,...
Hope it will work long time (5 years without trouble)
I would recommend this to a friend!

Not too good

Upon initial Win 7 install my 4K read/write speeds were 32/81MBs respectively. After just 4 days this dropped to 21/42MBs. The machine lags, program open slower, freezes and generally lackluster performance.
Pros: Lightweight, 7.5mm thickness
Cons: Did not meet expectations, slowed rapidly
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Everything great that I heard about this SSD turned out to be true and rooted in fact. It's just a superb product, more than fulfills my expectations.
