Needed a fast large desity SSD
on August 25, 2015

AS a traveling engineer, I needed a large density SSD to handle large 3D models. The Samsung 1TB EVO was a perfect choice for speed and size. I expected the price, but the time savings was worth it. I reserved 20% for reliability using the Magician software and the reliability so far has been great.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Potentialy great SSD

This SSD could be great, the problem I am having is that Magician 4.6 does not support Windows 10, so I cannot run the SSD in Rapid mode.
But the SSd works fine, and was great value for money.
This is the second SSD on my system, so cloning with the Migration tool was not possible (only works for the first/OS disk).
I bought the 2.5/3.5 inch mounting bracket separately, is not included in the box.
All in all I am happy with the SSD.

Makes my computer new again

The boot time is reduced to a third of what it was before. There is no lag in programs. It boosted my seven rating from 5.9 to 7.9 in the drive category. I have a overall rating of 7.6 Due to my graphics card. I have a dell precision Dual quad zeon processors and 32 gigs of ram. This hard drive has unlocked the performance I could not get before. It is the best upgrade for your money. I would recommend this to everyone. The samgung magician app. Will help you to get the most out of your settings.
Pros: Inexpensive
Cons: none
I would recommend this to a friend!

This SSD replaces an existing one from a different vendor. I definitely notice it's faster and I've had no problems with it. I'm using this with my iMac and I've enabled TRIM with no issues either. I am happy with my Samsung Evo SSD!
Pros: great performance
