- Very fast, getting over 14k read and close to 14k writes on b850 AMD motherboard - Price is amazing compared to the samsung 9100

Definite boost in performance over the previous SSD. It lives in a Dell Precision workstation and bumped up performance about 33%.

Easy to install

- good packaging. - this is a single sided SSD (500 GB).

We use this for the main data drive on our gaming, streaming and editing PCs!


- Similiar performance as competing full-size high-end 2280 M.2 PCIe SSDs - Sequential write speed exceeded advertised rating of 6,000 MB/s (Avg 6,228.30 MB/s of 5 tests) - Great capacity X performance X format X price - Small size for use in various handheld gaming or media devices - 5 Year Warranty

The fact Samsung software was available for the installation made this go pretty smooth. I wanted to clone my old SSD to the Samsung and it worked like a charm with all the files mirrored perfectly. Now I have plenty of extra space for future needs.

- Cheapest price I've seen compared to most popular brands, at the 4TB level - Easy and straightforward to install - Safely packaged and sealed (came with M.2 screw) - I like that the packaging references the model year that the drive was manufactured (I assume?), since I received the latest 2024 model

well made, great drive, fast, reliable.

Easy to install



- Measured benchmark speeds meet advertised speeds - Heatsink is unlikely to interfere with components - 5 year warranty

Good Quality Fast Comes with heat sink

- Faster option is nearly twice the speed of the "fast" option, I recommend spending the few extra dollars for it.

Super-fast on my machine surpassing 400MB/s, zero heat transfer like the hard drive did on my laptop keyboard. Of course, no noise and price was right. Also much improved will be the battery life but I'll never know since my laptop stays plugged in.


I like getting a 1Tb M.2 by a know company for $54 (tax) It was installed as a game drive on my MSI x470 Gaming Plus with a Ryzen 7 5700x, I needed to run Dead Space with RTX 3070. drive is in top slot without heatsink, my video is side mount on PCI Express 4 riser mount and not like normal install of your video. HWin64 info has been track the drive temps, 42c was max after some Forspoken benchmarks, about a good hour of Dead Space was 41c in 1440p high settings /DLSS Balanced mode, I order a GLOTRENDS M.2 Heatsink PS5 Installation for Large Capacity for $8.99 and will be installed.`

Received way in advance. Format OK Thank You.
