Samsung Laptop Disk Images

Could be faster but makes a good target for travelling storage. I transfer my images to my laptop disk every evening when traveling. Then I copy the folder to this drive and reformat the card for the next days shooting. The metal case takes care of heating.

Disk arrived amazingly quick (next day!) I love the disk, except I never did get it set up for over provisioning. Samsung could do a better job with software to facilitate this. Even so, I'd still buy this SSD again. As always, BH Photo is my go-to provider.

I use this drive to create a disk image of my c: drive on my laptop. Easy to use.

Bought this to add to my new laptop as a second disk. Holds all my Lightroom pix.

Great reviews, product performs well. Installer could not clone, but did not use Samsung install disk.?

Got this for backups. But then the Samsung T7 I got was so slow I decided to use that for backups instead. This spinning disk drive is actually faster than the Samsung SSD! It's the most utterly stupid thing Samsung ever did with the T7. The T5 was a solid performer, the T7 a dud that can be lapped by a normal old hard drive! Anyway, this works exceptionally well for a bus powered spinning disk. I keep all my projects saved here when travelling, then I make copies to a disk array when back at home base. My only gripe is that I wish it was USB C.

After reading Lionel's recent review here, I spoke with Samsung customer service and was assured their data migration software would work with the 860 pro.� So I took a chance and purchased this item.� Just completed replacement of the 120GB SSD system disk in my W7 desktop and the process worked perfectly, aided tremendously by having a Sabrent EC-DFLT external hard drive enclosure that was housing a 3.5" drive used for storage.� After removing the 3.5" drive from the Sabrent and replacing it with the 860 Pro, I installed the Samsung data migration software, which did update after its installation, from version 3.1.0.1 to version 3.1.0.3.� I then ran the data migration software - the process took 17 minutes and prompted me to install the 860 pro after it finished.� I powered down, swapped the 860 Pro for the old 120BG disk, rebooted, and the system started with no apparent change except the system disk now has 380GB of free space. On the basis of this experience, I recommend this product and send Kudos to Samsung for providing the very helpful software.

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.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I only get Samsung or San disk for SSD's or NVME's. Fastest speeds and most reliability on the market

I install Samsung SSD in all my client machines, as well as my personal ones. They have no moving parts, which makes them ideal for laptops that get moved and/or tossed around. Performance is stellar. Win7 and new can use the Magician software to enable RAPID mode (disk cache), which is ideal on battery powered laptops to ensure no data loss from a power outage. The PRO is more durable than the EVO series, and priced accordingly. PRO is for heavy use. Leave 5~10% of the disk as raw/unallocated for automatic wear leveling.
