SAMSUNG (MZ-V7E500BW) 970 EVO SSD 500GB - M.2 NVMe Interface Internal Solid State Drive with V-NAND Technology, Black/Red

I think this may be one of the best purchases for my pc. Load time for windows is basically non-existed and games I put on this have crazy load times. For example rust would take 5 to 10 minutes on my old pc and ssd l, but now it takes less then 5 minutes for any server.

I was not expecting to see this much improvement from my mushkin SSD, but I get pretty much exactly four times the performance and unless its the placebo effect, I can really feel the difference in gaming. On sale at $59, this may be my favorite upgrade of all time. Make sure you look at your motherboard documentation to determine if a certain slot is faster. On my ASUS x570, it seems the one with the heat sink is meant for a storage drive and not intended for the OS.

When i plug it in. I get a message saying. Reboot and select proper boot device and I dont know what to do to fix it. Please help. Someoneeee

Samsung’s pioneered technology is truly impressive. It’s as easy to install as any other form of hard drive. I’ve owned it for a month with no issues. Make sure you download “Samsung Magician” with it. As NVMe drives tend to lose space over long periods of time Samsung Magician tries to help reduce that. Overall, nothing to complain about. It’s a solid product.

Super fast SSD and plenty of space for me. Samsung has makes these in Korea now while my 960 Evo was made in China.

Todo ok

The 1TB capacity one is $150USD more expensive than my local stores ON SALE PRICES.

Make sure that the original disk you are copying from is not encrypted, such as using BitLocker. Suspending BItLocker wont do it, you have to decrypt the HDD first.

Dang nabbit, the plus version came out right after I bought this with slightly faster timings. This are smaller than expected and better than imagined. Easy install and works pretty close to rated speed. Awesome upgrade from SATA SSD. Should’ve got a OS dependent drive but it didn’t cross my mind. I also bought the plus version shortly after this one and it’s just as good and I noticeably better.

My Gaming rig boots in seconds WOW. If your machine supports M.2 do the switch!
