Beast of an SSD if you don't need PCIe 4.0 or 5.0
Memory Storage Capacity: 1000 GB
Why I ordered this item: I'm trying to breathe new life into an old computer that only has PCIe 3.0 and I needed a new drive. This was pretty much the top tier drive in its day, so I felt confident it would be a good option for me to use in this rebuilt gaming PC for my kid. Likes: * Install of NVMe drives is super easy. Plug it in, screw it in (don't lose the screw!) and install your OS. Connectivity is easy, and this will work on boards with newer PCIe versions too. * My computer detected it with no issues at all. I was able to install Windows easily. * It doesn't run anywhere near as hot as new drives, so no heatsink needed! It gets a little warm during operation, but I monitor my drives with software and it's not anywhere close to this drive's max temp. * Power consumption is almost neglible! * Speeds are excellent. Samsung truly was a leader with this drive and it still almost totally maxes out NVMe 3.0. * This is not super important, but it looks totally awesome. The label is so classy. No likes: * None Would I pay full price for this product: Yes, even at these inflated prices. Final thoughts: Maybe someday SSDs won't cost 4x what they did a year ago, but I'm still very happy with this drive and I can whole heartedly recommend it if you don't need PCIe 4 or 5. ... show more

Fast as lightning...
Memory Storage Capacity: 1000 GB
I bought one of these Samsung 1TB sticks about a year ago, and BAMM!! My laptop's read and write times got 6 times faster than the SATA SSD I was running... Windows loaded in mere seconds, vs. a minute... It doesn't sound like much, but as I advance in age toward my 60th year, A MINUTE IS A MINUTE SAVED... So when I saw this same model for $25 cheaper than the first one, I jumped on it... I bought it for my desktop I built 6 months ago... You just can't beat these Samsungs... I can't believe I can fit 1TB on this tiny stick... I still remember my first hard drive I ever had... It was an IOMEGA 30MB (yes, that's megabytes) for a Macintosh Plus... It was as big as a half-height cinder block, and had a cable as big around as my thumb (Centronics SCSI, I think)... Anyway, for gaming, how about NO LAG... Games load and play instantaneously, even the largest games... The 3 stars for EASY TO INSTALL has nothing to do with the stick itself... It's about my motherboard... The NVMe socket is located directly behind my video card... So when I was cloning OLD to NEW, I had to remove the video card, swap the sticks, and replace the video card... Because of the learning curve (screw-ups) of the cloning software I chose, that process took me 4 tries to get it right... Word of advice: If you choose to clone your NVMe stick, and you only have 1 slot on your motherboard, MAKE AN IMAGE of what you plan to clone first, and save it somewhere else... If you screw-up the cloning process, you'll have the image to try it again... Oh, by the way, you'll need to buy an external enclosure for the new stick for the cloning procedure... It's the only way to do it when you've only got 1 slot on the motherboard... When the process is complete, put the old stick into the enclosure, and you'll have it to transfer/share files with your buddies, or for permanent backup... GOOD DAY... ... show more

Perfect drive for everyday consumers that want speed
Memory Storage Capacity: 1000 GB
Samsung makes a great product the 980 is a fast, reliable, long lasting hard drive that is an awesome fit for any compatible PC (and some that aren't) I got this NVME drive for my DELL XPS 15, which comes with one drive and a second expandable M.2 slot. With just a couple minutes of work the drive was up and running, the second time around anyway. The first one I got was dead on arrival but I got a replacement next day before the defective drive was even picked up. In tests the drive hit its claimed read/write times and it is fast enough for just about anything you need. I use this one when I'm video editing and gaming, both tasks it excels at. This is an awesome upgrade if you need more storage and especially if you are looking for more speed. It preforms many times faster than a traditional HDD (with the spinning disc) and is also much faster than a 2.5 in. ssd. It is also faster than a SATA M.2, basically NVME is what you want if your PC is compatible. If it's not this is also a great product to use in a high quality external NVME enclosure. You can use it as an external hard drive on the go or with multiple PCs or to back up important files. The NVME drives are also more durable than a drive with moving parts or even a 2.5 in. drive making it perfect to go in an enclosure that you can throw in your backpack without worrying about damage. ... show more

Easy Install, Lightening-fast boot!
Memory Storage Capacity: 1000 GB
I bought my wife a Lenovo ideapad 3 - 15ITL05 laptop last year. Was working normally then, out of nowhere, we got locked out of the computer. After many tiring attempts at trying to get into Windows, we discovered that a Windows app named BitLocker was enabled and keeping us from getting into the system. We tried finding the key to unlock it, no luck. Tried to clean install Windows 11 and Windows 10, no luck. So finally, I opened it up, removed the factory drive (128 gb NVMe M.2) and ordered this masterpiece. Installation was very easy, had to go into BIOS and disable Intel VMD to be able to select the drive in the Windows installation prompt, then proceeded to install Windows 10 Home 64-bit. I went with Windows 10 because this computer is low-end and I thought it would be more efficient. After the install and setting up some apps like Chrome and installing some drivers, I did a restart. And O-M-G, this thing went from the push of the power button to the desktop screen in about 6 seconds flat. At just $65, Amazon and Samsung has come through for me to no disappointment. Will be ordering more of these 1 tb monsters. Easy, cheap and super effective.

Been using Samsung products ever since I swapped to SSDs. They are the best and provide reliable performance. I concurrently own the 850 EVO, 960 Pro, 960 EVO, 970 EVO Plus, 980 Pro and now the 980 all at 1 TB storage capacities. Each of them have been blazing fast, significantly faster than standard SATA SSD's. Clearly the 980 is an excellent NVMe drive. I cloned this ssd just using it for a backup drive. Currently I use 980 Pro. Actually I really cannot tell the difference between these two on a PCIE 3.0 motherboard. With a Asus ROG Strix Z390-E Gaming PCIE 3.0 motherboard, this SSD is stupid fast. Very happy with the performance. I agreed with the argument that NVMe PCI Express Gen 4 drives would likely not really make a huge difference over a fast the PCIe Gen3 SSD drives. I know PCIe Gen5 SSD is not far behind. Also the drives obviously cost more.  When connected through the M.2 to USB NVMe SSD Adapter, it could not be initialized. When I tried to initialize hard drive via Disk Management and receive error message such as “This request cannot be completed because of an I/O device error” or “The device is not ready”. The is something wrong with the hard drive connection cable or adapter. M.2 NVMe Interface Internal SSD drive is easily initialized in m.2 slot on motherboard. This also needs to be installed in the M.2 slot closest to the CPU which has a direct connection to the CPU. Using EaseUS Software, I imaged my existing 980 Pro 3-partition hard drive onto this SSD and it booted perfect and have not had a single problem.

If your using alot different larger files this drive is perfect since it dose not have ultra fast cache but still has an great average speed. This drive dose amazing despite the fact that it dose not have ultra fast cache like the evo series dose. If you plan on editing 4k video or load alot DIFFERENT games this drive was made for you & you can save 20 bucks without seeing any performance lose... \/ for people who need drive clone \/ I'm not happy that the samsung software would not allow me to migrate my data from a sanDISK to this 980.. I had to use sandisk software to get my games moved over to this drive that is pathetic it makes no since that the samsung clone utility requires BOTH drives to be samsung it should only require that the NEW drive be samsung... that restriction basically suggest to potential buyers that if they owned a different brand before hand THEY SHOULD NOT buy this drive... Samsung don't you realize your TRYING to get market share are you brain dead ? if you don't understand please have a 12 year old explain elementary marketing to you! There is ZERO negative to samsung as a company to & you should ALWAYS allow cloning to a new samsung drive regardless what the old drive brand was OMG that is so painfully obvious ... show more
