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.
