Best Windows 10 Pro Laptops 2018

I tried this adapter on two Windows 10 laptops. Windows did not find and install a driver automatically on either one, but I came to this site, downloaded the driver package, and was in business on both machines in a few minutes.

One of my Windows 10 laptops ran at 90-100% disk usage in task manager a lot. I found this SSD on sale at B&H and installed it. The bottleneck on the system is almost never the disk anymore. Happy IT person.

I use lots of brands of laptops. The Surface Pro 7 is really the best designed touch base windows device available. It is not only a super thin and light laptop but it is also a top of the line tablet. This is a winner and is fairly priced. Get one...

No problems. My 2018 MacBook Pro immediately recognized it. Best capture device I’ve used so far. Works great with my Sony a6400 when running 4K.

having several past apple laptops, mac pro's, mac air's, I was surprised the Apple logo no longer is illuminated when open. Apple is still as great as ever but had to research why and this is now normal due to thin lid and burn thru of apple image on screen. Otherwise 10 for 10

Product came fast within a couple of days. Windows 10 Pro UEFI booted very fast with this drive. Faster than my nvme running Windows 10 Pro in Legacy (Same PC). Does not boot up my software programs as fast as my nvme (obviously). Have had zero problems with this drive and running software programs for graphic design. Excellent price for a solid drive. After registering my PNY products, I was contacted by a rep. Very friendly guy who is very helpful.

Pros: Very fast startup, Very easy to install using Samsung's Data Migration Software. I installed the 850 PRO by migrating my boot HDD to the 850 PRO and replacing the HDD (my C: drive) with the much faster 850 PRO. Everything went very smoothly in my Windows 10 AMD desktop. Cons: Samsung could do a better job on instructing the user on how to prepare the system prior to the start of data migration. For example there should be a set of instructions informing the user to make sure the AHCI driver is loaded on the Windows 10 system prior to the start of data migration. If you don't use AHCI you will not get the maximum performance from your ssd. If you install the AHCI driver after migrating the data to the ssd and then replacing the hdd with the ssd, you may lose the ability to boot the computer from the ssd. Windows 10 does not install the AHCI driver in a fresh install of Windows 10. Samsung should have step by step instructions on what to do to make sure we get best performance for which the ssd was designed.

I love the clamshell design - slightly depress the button to open, but it also has the backup method of opening. I use different software to burn video/photos/audio to optical disc for those who still need optical, and I have not yet tried it with my software. I purchased two of these. One is for my boss & I needed get a matching one in case he ever has any problems. This review is for both devices - one on Windows 10 pro & the other on Windows 11 pro. The Pioneer was plug and play on both devices. I have not yet downloaded the Cyberlink software, nor have I yet had time to see if this works with my existing software. I can confirm that it played back both audio and video easily on both Windows 11 pro and Windows 10 Pro. Windows 11 used Windows Media Player, and Windows 10 Pro I use VLC & another player. Easily worked well on both, and was super simple to plug and play. Glad I got it & that I no longer have to use the trusty paperclip method to open an optical drive any longer. (did not seem to matter how new they were - until this clamshell design, I have not found an optical drive that didn't need a paperclip to open it occasionally - sometimes always) This one even if it does not pop all the way open, is so easy to open & close!

I have tried it so far on a Windows 10 Pro machine. I have tried it with 3.5 inch SATA HDDs at 7200 RPM and 5400 RPM. I've tried it with 2.5 inch SATA SSD. It works great.

This is the only adapter we found that actually worked with Windows 10 on a Surface Pro 3. Tech support was great to work with as they answered my questions finding something to work.
