What customers say about "Key Specs"
Samsung 860 EVO 1TB 2.5" Internal Solid State Drive
  • The boot time is ridiculously fast and the whole thing feels like a new machine.
  • My games are super fast to load in now. Significantly less stutter and lagging means im getting more fps than before.
  • Works great. Really fast starting up the games (specifically Ark and Space Engineers) and no time outs!
  • I bought several of these for storage of data that needed to be used on several workstations, they are fast, easy to use and seem like an excellent option.
  • The drive works as expected, i.e. delivers the advertised speeds, and after 3 few weeks use is reliable.

What customers say about "Features"
Samsung 860 EVO 1TB 2.5" Internal Solid State Drive
  • The difference with HDD is simply amazing, very fast!
  • Excellent SSD. Installed inside my 27 inch late 2013 iMac and it has decreased the start up time from 2 min 15 seconds to just 30 seconds!
  • Easy to install as I was only replacing an existing drive.
  • Worked straight out of the box for a clean Windows 10 install.
  • Installation was easier than expected and the hard drive works incredibly well.
