M.2 NVMe Storage is phenomenal...
Memory Storage Capacity: 1 TB
First, I am kicking myself for buying a motherboard in 2016 that supported NVMe storage and NOT buying one. I got an SSD storage device instead. After reading this, you will KNOW you need to get and use NVMe. Here is a brief non-technical description of the 3 storage devices out there with there evolution. This is generalized to give you an idea of the technology involved. It is by no means intended to cover all things. I'm also keeping it basic. BRIEF AND SIMPLE EXPLANATION 1). The first is the spinning disk drive we've all used for decades. It stores information on a metallic platter that spins with an arm that reads said information off the surface of the spinning disk. Effective in its day and was the commonly used storage device of time. It's slow... though, for its day, it did the job. 2). The second is the SSD. It stands for Solid State Drive and, basically, the moving parts of the old spinning disk drive were replaced with circuitry that 'emulated' the spinning disk drive. Why? This allowed an SSD to be put into motherboards without completely redoing the architecture. SSDs continued to use the AHCI standard (not all of them) which has been around and evolving for awhile. Basically, without the moving parts, and by using persistent, rewritable memory, the speeds of 'diskless' storage improved dramatically. It is quite fast. 3). The new technology is NVMe and it requires a certain type of motherboard (or a riser card using one of your PCI slots) in order to even install (see note below). Simply put, the architecture of the new motherboards support the M.2 standard for INSANELY FASTER 'drive' speeds. The new storage is inserted into a special slot that has INSANE bandwidth (remember, I'm keeping this simple) and uses the INSANELY fast M.2 NVMe memory. HOW FAST? I replaced my SSD that I used with this NVMe storage and went from 30 second boot times to 10 seconds. You might say that's not terribly fast, but I'm talking about the moment I press the power button on my desktop computer to the moment I get the Windows 10 log in screen. Most of that time is the BIOS power up process which I cannot speed up, period. So, roughly 5 seconds to boot from 25 seconds previously. Also, EVERYTHING loads and saves faster. This is the most advancement in performance I've ever experienced since the first computer I got that used an 8086 CPU. NOTE: If you don't have a motherboard that natively supports NVMe, you might be tempted to get an adapter card that will use one of the slots on your PCI motherboard. You would install the NVMe chip into the adapter card and then install that to motherboard slot. I can't speak for how much that will improve your storage performance, but it certainly can't compare to using the new M.2 technology on a MB with the right architecture. THIS TECH IS INSANELY FAST AND WELL WORTH THE PRICE. 1TB is cheap! I'm going to get a second one and try them in RAID 0 or 10 format. No idea if it will work or if it will be better. GET THIS TECHNOLOGY! :) ... show more

"Evo Plus" = vastly simplified NVME upgrade for 2013-2015 macbook pro
Memory Storage Capacity: 1 TB
1TB Samsung 970 Evo = 4 hour OS install In late 2018, I installed a 1TB Samsung 970 Evo in one of my main workstations: a 2014 Retina Macbook Pro, model ID: 11,2. OS install was the hardest part - a long process, really a total a pain. I can't remember all the steps, but it took about 4 hours to complete, and some folks weren't having success with it at all. I managed to get through it without any issues, and the 970 Evo expanded capacity while allowing me to work faster with exponentially faster read and write speeds. So, it was totally worth it. I do heavy graphic work and travel often, so I expected the 970 Evo to last no more than 3 years. It actually lasted a little longer - nearly 4 years! The way it failed was curious though: bricked during a security update. (Can't even read or reformat it.) I decided to start with a fresh OS install on a fresh SSD. So I ordered a replacement NVME SSD, and I went for the 1TB Evo Plus. 1TB Samsung 970 Evo Plus = 0.5 hour OS install While waiting for the Evo Plus to arrive, I got on another workstation, downloaded Mac OS Mojave installer, and used Terminal commands to create a USB boot disk. The next day, the Evo Plus arrived. I installed it right out of the box and connected the boot drive. Started up from the boot drive and used disk utility to format the Evo Pro. All I had to do after that is install Mojave from the boot drive. Less than 30 minutes to replace hardware and perform a fresh OS install. Nice! I've been using it for a few days now, and it's just as fast as the last Samsung M.2 I bought. Price on these drives is much better than now too. If this was a new PC build or a video editing MBP, I'd go for a 980 Pro. I think these more affordable drives do very well for the price, and last exactly as long as I need them to. ... show more

Great so far BUT READ ME
Memory Storage Capacity: 1 TB
It works as expected and is simple to install. Using their migration software, I imaged my existing 2-partition hard drive onto the SSD and it booted perfect and have not had a single problem (it even let me change the size of each partition before imaging which is useful). BUT, in order to get it up to full speed, you need the latest firmware update which you get from the management software, SAMSUNG Magician (which you download from the site, then update from the program...because the latest version isn't on the site's storefront), then you update the firmware with it, then add Overprovisioning, then run the optimizer. Until I did all this, I was only able to get 2800 mb/s read speed, but after everything, I was able to get ~3200 mb/s and 3000+ mb/s write. I have a Gigabyte Gaming 5 motherboard, i7 7700 running at 4.7GHz, and screaming fast memory and I can't reach the "read up to 3500 mb/s" speed claim. It's possible if I had a new motherboard like a Gaming 7, I could get it going that fast. So beware. Regardless, I am really happy with it, especially for the price. Load times are ridiculously fast, the whole thing is a lot more snappy all the way around. I Highly recommend it. Two concerns, the temp can run high so make sure you have decent air flow over the area. The other is the lifetime...the 970 Evo Plus only lasts 600tbw whereas the previous generation of 970 Evo and Pro supposedly last 1200tbw...not sure why the newer generation lasts half the time. Just beware. ... show more

Fast, Reliable, & Reasonable
Memory Storage Capacity: 1 TB
Let me start off by saying I concurrently own the 960 EVO, 970 EVO, and now the 970 EVO Plus all at 1 TB storage capacities. Each of them have been blazing fast, significantly faster than standard/traditional sata SSD's. Clearly the 970 EVO Plus outperforms the previous iterations but that was to be expected and is an excellent NVMe drive that typically reaches its claimed read and write speeds. All that being said, this SSD is geared toward a targeted consumer group, specifically PC enthusiasts or professionals. For starters, you need to have a compatible motherboard on your PC or laptop that can support M.2 drives. Chances are that if you are looking into this product, you probably already know if your hardware does and that's why you're researching this. Furthermore, this SSD is expensive (although not ridiculously so) compared to older sata SSD's. You can currently purchase the Samsung 860 EVO 1TB for $127.99. The 970 EVO Plus drive is almost double the price but almost 7x the performance. However, you have to put it into perspective with previous NVMe's and the market saturation that has occurred with SSD'S (the 960 EVO initially launched at a MSRP of $419.99 for 1 TB), $249.99 for an NVMe drive starts to sound incredibly reasonably priced. Now, if you're a gamer or the average user who basically only stores media (pictures, videos, etc) then you should probably stick to a sata SSD with a larger storage capacity. You'll get more for your money as NVMe drives are marginally better with load times in games. However, if you are a content creator/professional who consistently moves large files that can take advantage of the read and write speeds , this drive would be an excellent choice as there is a night and day difference compared to a sata SSD. Regardless, this is a quality product and you won't be disappointed in the performance. *Please note that if installing on a PC motherboard you do not receive a screw with drive. You will have to buy it separately or see if your motherboard supplies one. ... show more

So far, so good.
Memory Storage Capacity: 1 TB
Great price, fast shipping, easy install. Best of all, it's not one of the failure-prone WD/SanDisk SSD's. I'm probably one out a thousand folks who have upgraded to an M.2 SSD AND been able to locate the hold-down screw that came with my motherboard - seven years ago! I have learned to keep original boxes for important computer peripherals! This stick installed without a hitch, and it actually provided me an opportunity to vacuum out all the accumulated dust inside my case. It also enabled me to double my storage capacity (which I needed for work), and it future-proofed my custom setup for a few more years. My exisitng drive, a 500Gb SATA spinning disk, was aging. For the price of this Samsug 970 EVO Plus, I figured I couldn't go wrong. I seized the opportunity to do a clean install of Windows 10, and isolate all the garbage still hanging around from my earlier free upgrade from Win XP to Win 10. And NO, I steadfastly refuse to upgrade to Win 11, primarily due to my incompatible AMD processor and lack of TPM support. This 970 EVO Plus has far more capability than I need - I'm am not a gamer, nor do I really need its exceptional read/write speed. In that regard, this drive is overkill. Frankly, in daily usage, I can barely see any difference in performance. But again, for the price, it gives me a helluvalot of legroom. The only thing I regret is that my motherboard's M.2 slot is located directly beneath my graphics card, resulting in insufficient clearance for an aftermarket heat spreader for the SSD. But, that's a function of the motherboard layout, not a complaint against this SSD drive. I'd recommend this drive to anyone looking to prolong the life of their legacy system, providing of course that their motherboard is compatible. ... show more
