Your games will maybe load 1 second faster. OS maybe boots slightly faster, but who does that?
The only thing I can objectively tell is different is I can move and delete huge files instantly. Perhaps it is more effective for someone who is doing 4K video editing.
If you're a gamer or just average user, just buy a regular SSD. Trust me.
Edit: Included a benchmark. 2,759 MB/sec write, and 2,313 MB/sec read. If you remember 3.5" floppies, this is like reading 1915 diskettes every second.
Edit2: After realizing that I wasn't getting the rated speed (which no one will probably actually see), I started to look into it and I made sure that I had the latest BIOS update, the latest chipset and storage drivers, and the Samsung NVME driver. After doing all that, I re-ran the benchmark and now I'm over the 3000 MB/sec mark! It's fast out of the box but with proper setup it can be much faster!

well, the usual Samsung witchcraft ensued after a few months of use. Contrary to what the benchmark test still says this drive is now as slow and unresponsive as the Kingston drive that I have since thrown away. it's mojo and badassery dissappeared after an update installed. It's still a cool little drive but it looks like it's been throttled back possibly due to faster drives being in the works.
Original review:
so far so good. I had a pre installed Kingston m.2 sata drive in my MSI gaming laptop and it did the job, just not very quickly. After cloning my system over to the 970 EVO I was eager to see the difference in speed. To my surprise the boot time didn't really change, it might be half a second faster, so little I began to wonder if the price was worth it. I decided to open Adobe Lightroom as that is what I primarily use this computer for. I had processed a batch of photos with the old drive and it had taken roughly 5 minutes to finish. I processed the same batch with the 970 EVO and it blew my mind, 45 seconds from import to batch adjustment and export. I am so happy with this drive, my photography work will happen so much quicker now.
Attaching the CrystalMark scores for both my old Kingston and the 970 EVO. I was hesitant to spend this much on a drive but now I can't wait to upgrade my desktop with one of these.

Second: installation was a pain. Not because the hardware itself is difficult (you just angle it into the m.2 slot and then tighten the screw that holds it down) but the software that you use it with i.e. Windows. Windows kept giving me errors so I eventually abandoned the idea of doing a disk clone and did a straight up fresh windows install. This seemed to work but obviously now I have data on my old disk that I'll need to pull off at some point.
Back to the SSD itself though - yeah, it IS really that fast. For the price, this has got to be one of the best improvements you can make to your system, especially if you're still using a traditional hard drive like I was. Highly recommended.
P.S. They're tiny! I wasn't expecting them to be just this small. It's about the size of my index finger/a stick of gum. Half terabyte in that size....... guess the future really is here!

- Está casi igual en precio que una 960 NVME.
- Compatible con LENOVO LEGION y720
- La diferencia a un HDD es enorme, mi computadora tardaba 40 segundos hasta 60; ahora solo 3 a 4 seg, puedo cambiar de sistema de forma muy rápida y abre los programas bastante rápido también.
- Es una excelente inversión si quieres sacarle provecho a una computadora gamer como la mía que tenía un HDD y eso atrofiaba su poder, 1060 GTX, I7 7700 2.8ghz, 20 gb ram ahora si vuela.
A++++ product.
