970 Evo Plus Review

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Been using the 970 EVO Plus for around a year and haven't had any problems.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using the 970 EVO Plus for over two years now. I have the 2TB and 500GB models, they are reliable and the performance cannot be beat! I utilize them for the main operating system and use them to house virtualized machines, I will continue to choose the Samsung EVO series, thanks for a great product!

Idles a couple of degrees cooler than the 2TB 970 EVO Plus.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The 970 EVO PLUS NVME M.2 is very fast and reliable. So far among the M.2 NVMe in the market now SAMSUNG 970 EVO PLUS is the BENZ of SSD

Using the Samsung 1TB 970 EVO Plus in my new NUC11. Works great.

I used this card to hold a Samsung 970 EVO Plus SSD to replace my existing hard drive. My Dell 8900 recognized both the PCIe card and SSD and loaded Windows 10 with no hiccups. The card hold 4 SSD but I only used one (1TB). Both the ASUS card and B&H are great!

I'm coming from a normal 970 EVO, which was great. The 970 EVO Plus is even that slight bit better, with extremely fast boot times and loading times. Has been great so far.

This 970 EVO Plus model has the read/write speed, powerful multicore controller chip, the DRAM cache, and the TLC NAND you want for endurance. You have to step up to the 980 EVO Pro to have better specs. If you are asking yourself why this model is more expensive that the newer 980 EVO, it is because you only get the old features of the 970 EVO on the 980 EVO Pro.

I have a Samsung 1tb 970 EVO Plus as a boot drive, OS and general purpose applications. I also have a Samsung 500gb 980 nvme as a games drive, but was quickly running out of diskspace. I decided to buy another Samsung 1tb 970 EVO Plus. It was an easy swap on the motherboard, but the performance is definitely a step up from the 980. All my games load just that much quicker than it did before. I know the specs are almost identical, but the 970 EVO Plus is definitely faster. I think pricewise, I paid the same for the older, better performing and larger capacity Samsung 970 EVO Plus as I did for the lower capacity and less performing Samsung 980 (which my wife got as an upgrade from a mechanical drive :-) ) Win, win. Highly recommended.
