Part of a whole storage system upgrade

After much reading of reviews, decided on the 850 EVO for capacity/price. Installation was accomplished via a 3.5 adapter (bought separately) and went smoothly. (The sata and power cables hung a little low in the bay without the adapter). Also installed a 1TB Seagate Firecuda for file storage, etc. Loaded Windows 7 on the EVO and the speed increase in the sys op load was tremendous. Other loaded program performances are also noticeably quicker and consistent. The accompanying Magician software was 4.5 (I'm installing 5.0 now). The 5 year warranty is also nice as most other SSDs run from 1 year to 3 or so. After using Samsung cell phones for years without problems I am hoping this new SSD drive will reflect the same commitment to quality.
Pros: Durable, Inexpensive, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

I researched all the popular ssds and although Samsung was a little higher cost I went with the reviews and I am glad I did. Easy transfer with the migration cd, easy to install ( I did it myself ) and finished up with the magician cd. Started up and all went well. I will be using Samsung ssds in the future and I hope to get the 500gb version next !!!

Best SSD on the market

I purchased this drive 2 years ago. The performance is great! I am totally satisfied and it out performed other brands that I tested. Don't waste your money on cheap SSD Drives because they are not worth it at all. If you want something reliable and stable just spend the extra few bucks and buy The Samsung EVO
Pros: very reliable
I would recommend this to a friend!

Slow Computing or Gaming? ...Not Anymore!
on April 5, 2017
Posted by: PoorGamer
I noticed a slowdown in my PC, response time was getting slow, and it was taking longer to load programs, FPS in games dropped etc. So, I decided to upgrade my system with a new Samsung SSD. The improvement was phenomenal, gained 5 or more FPS in games, no more load lag, and my system is like new again. If you're a Gamer, or if you've noticed a slowdown in your PC and you don't have a SSD, upgrade now. You will not regret it.
Pros: faster than other ssd's at the same price.

Whilst looking at ssd's I knew Samsung were the best but also the priciest. I didn't know till I installed the rather 'ordinary' 850 EVO how much better Samsung is than Sandisk ssd's which I have two of. I now have two Samsung EVO 850's in a separate machine and they are noticeably quicker. I am also waiting on a 960 PRO M.2 drive for my newest computer - now that's spendy but I can't wait to speed up ingame load times some more.
Pros: unobtrusive
Cons: none
I would recommend this to a friend!
