Samsung Laptop Driver Tool

Worked great with my Windows 10 laptop. I did not need to use the Driver DVD.

I used the tool to assemble a Laptop computer.

If one is looking to take their Photoshop expertise to the next level this tool is invaluable. The driver download was easily performed and the tablet was readily recognizable once the drivers were in place. It does take a few hours to start to master the device. I watched several YouTube videos on how to start with the device. I think that took a lot of the learning pain away. I do still try to use mouse strokes when locating my cursor; that may never get fully relearned. I hard a tough time deciding between the three sizes and finally landed on the Medium. I am certain that for the amateur photographer/graphic artist the large would have been overkill. Likewise, I now believe the small would have too little active real estate to allow for free brushing.

I use this case as a tool box for road travel. This model is perfect fit under the driver's seat and is pretty much bullet proof.

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.

This SSD supports the new PCIE 4.0 standard. My laptop supports only the previous PCIE 3.0 standard. So, I was thinking the speed would still be the same as before given the situation. I was mistaken. This new SSD boots up faster than my previous 970 EVO Plus, so it is in fact an upgrade and future proof. However, the problem is not with the drive, the problem is with the Samsung driver. Samsung is at this writing only, making a driver available for their SSD's UP TO AND INCLUDING the 970 series only. There is no Samsung Elpis controller driver for this model. So, Windows 10 uses the built-in standard Microsoft NVME driver for Windows 10 that was written in 2006. Almost 15 years ago. So, I imagine that as soon as Samsung releases a new driver for this device, it will be even faster. Love it.

I bought this for myself for Christmas, hoping to scan all the family photos. Because there is no scan driver for an iPad at this time, I was unable to use the scanner. I borrowed a laptop from a friend and was able to scan just fine. The photos scan very fast, does batch scanning, even clears up imperfections and red-eyes. I absolutely love it! The only thing they could do better is to have a downloadable app/driver for mobile devices so I don’t have to borrow my friends laptop to use it. I can run my TV as a remote with my phone and tablet, I should be able to work computer equipment as well.

When I first purchased my laptop, I was worried about what kind of external driver I needed to purchase along with it; for the simple fact that I did not want to carry extra weight. However, contrary to my expectations, this driver is rather small and slim, and can easily fit into a purse pocket. The usb cable used to connect it to the laptop is also a short length, which freed me from the terror of having to wind up a long cable, in order to place it in my bag. I was finally able to install all my programs, and save my favorite music. Not only that, but I was also able to burn cds too. The only complaint I have is, for a lot of my movies on dvd, it refused to play them, reading them only as files instead...but I do believe it could be that I need to install an extra application in order to veiw my movies. Other than that, its a great product and does its job.

With a little driver/applet adjusting this worked a treat in my XPS laptop's combo 3.5 port. I also got it to work GREAT in my Pixel 4a..in both the 3.5 port and in the USB-C with an adaptor. Unreal value here...really improved my YT video's audio.

Magic Mouse on Windows-7 (Toshiba Satellite Laptop) works great! After searching the web and finding a driver that would work (AppleWirelessMouse645 driver application). I was able to quickly and seemlessly get the Apple magic mouse work on my wifes laptop running Windows-7 64bit. The Bluetooth 2.1 USB Micro Adapter by Iogear, goes great with this mouse. My wife loves it.
