Samsung 840 Evo 500Gb Msata Solid State Drive

I used this product to mount Samsung 840 EVO Solid state Disk in a HP Envy desktop. Product is solid, comes with needed screws and installs easily. You can not beat the cost either.

very good samsung ssd 500GB 970 EVO Plus

What’s not to like when it comes to Samsung SSD’s? I have quite a few, including the 860 EVO, older 840’s and 850’s EVOs and PROs that seem to last forever, as well as the newer NVMe 960 and 970 drives which are easily the fastest drives on the market. Samsung drives always hit or beat the rated speeds in both the excellent Samsung Magician software and in Crystal DiskMark. Samsung’s free data migration/cloning software is second to none as it works every time, and I even use it to keep current boot drive backups using older Samsung drives. If I could save a few dollars on some other brand, I’d still buy the Samsung because of the level of confidence and benefits of owning them vs. other brands.

Installed it as C:\ OS drive - replaced 840 EVO - met specs right out of the box - now, about a week later, it is showing the fastest add most consistent ATTO scores I seen on any SSD.

Solid state drive worth it.

I use this equipment on Samsung 500GB Evo 2.5 SSD's and have never had an issue with StarTech products. This adapter is very well made and has a little amber light that flashes when it is communicating. Great. I now own three and will buy more later. I leave them connected to the drives.

I purchased this to install a new Samsung 500GB 860 EVO SATA III 2.5 Internal SSD in an old HP 530 with Win 7 Pro. It worked flawlessly. It also has a clean looking blue led on the corner of the SATA connector that illuminates when connected to a USB port that was not in the description. I would definitely recommend this adapter cable and purchase again if I happen to misplace this one.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I can't figure out why I was opposed to ordering my new computer with a Solid State Drive instead of a HDD. Perhaps I was leery of the technology. I since replaced the HDD with the Samsung 860 Pro Solid State Drive. Before it to several minutes for the system to boot, now it is almost instantaneous. The overall performance of my system has increased 100 fold. Kudos to Samsung for their continuously innovative products. They made me a believer.

the samsung is a reliable fast solid state drive, using them for workspace while editing video really speeds up your workflow and rendering times.

I installed the Samsung 250GB Solid State Drive in my Lenovo desk-top computer. I moved Windows and all my application software to the solid state drive and all of my personal files to the internal disc drive. The disc drive is backed by an external disc drive. The resulting system is much faster. The installation went very smooth, although I had the entire system backed up on an external disk drive incase anything went wrong.
