SAMSUNG 870 QVO SATA III SSD 8TB 2.5 Internal Solid State Drive, Upgrade Desktop PC or Laptop Memory and Storage for IT Pros, Creators, Everyday Users, MZ-77Q8T0B

This product is well worth the money. I purchased this for my gaming desktop pc. I installed this and cloned my old HDD to it and the difference is night and day! If you’re still running HDD- MAKE THE SWITCH. I promise you won’t regret it. I used to experience slow loading times in games like GTA or even simple windows tasks. My pc loads GTA in under 2 minutes now from start to in game, it used to take 15. I also can restart my computer in under 30 seconds. Anyone saying this doesn’t work obviously doesn’t know how to format and boot to SSD because this product worked wonders. Buy it!!!!

Added this to my new MAC for additional external storage. Working like a champ one month later.

I have a PCIx 3x NVME Samsung drive as my boot drive and recently purchased this to replace an aging 6TB hdd. What I can say is that for storage purposes this is plenty fast and unless youre running 10 Gbps ethernet will provide you all the bandwidth you need for streaming, games, files, or network sharing. The built in cache is tricky in that it reads extremely fast at a small file size (faster than the maximum of SATA 3) with speedboost on so to get an accurate idea you have to run larger and deeper Queue Depths. You can see in the images as the size of the file goes up the speeds drop. Now keep in mind the write speed is still way too fast for an SSD so Samsung Speedboost is likely using a combination of writing to RAM and writing that to Cache. Perhaps useful if you have a large excess of RAM but something to note. Temps on the all aluminium enclosure never exceeded 6 degrees above ambient temp with a slow 1500 rpm fan sort of in the vicinity of the drive so no need to worry about temps with this drive. Overall Im pleased with the drive, and happy to finally remove all hard drives from my desktop even with 5+ TB of files to store. Its quiet, fast, temps well, and is significantly more power efficient since its speed means its active time is tiny compared to an HDD.

We purchased this drive to replace a 2TB drive that was too small. We use this drive to store years worth of videos. We needed 5 years on the drive and one year would use about 1TB. The drive replaced a Samsung drive so installation was smooth as you would expect. The new drive has been in use for two months and has worked seamlessly with the system. Very happy with Samsung drives.

The SSD works as intended, easy installation no hassle. Great value for money

The device is used before

Este ssd (2T) lo utilicé en un PS4 slim y lo instalé sin ningún problema. Asi como lo saqeu de la caja, lo instale sin tener que cambiar el tipo de formato o algo por el estilo.

fonctionne tres bien jusqua present

Easy to install. Remember, you must format so your computer can find. Blazing fast!

I bought this for samples libraires (Kontakt, OPUS, Vienna) which mainly utilize 4k random reads (QD1). While NVME drives will load patches faster, the streaming performance at QD1 standard is about the same, and youll get better thermal performance with SATA.
