What customers say about "Key Specs"

Samsung 970 EVO 1TB M.2 NVMe Internal Solid State Drive

The only thing I can objectively tell is different than my prior ssd is I can move and delete huge files instantly.
It is very effective and fast for me coz i rec 4K video.
Better then expected! Very high speed!
I had processed a batch of photos with the old drive and it had taken roughly 5 minutes to finish. I processed the same batch with the 970 EVO and it blew my mind, 45 seconds from import to batch adjustment and export.
If you're a gamer or just average user, just buy a regular SSD. Trust me.

What customers say about "Features"

Samsung 970 EVO 1TB M.2 NVMe Internal Solid State Drive

The NVMe interface (PCIe M.2 2280) offers enhanced bandwidth, low latency, and power efficiency, perfect for tech enthusiasts, high end gamers, and 4K & 3D content designers. Superb SSD!
Can't beat the speed of the nvme interface. Fastest i/o currently available.
I would definitely recommend this product as Samsung has an excellent reputation in solid state memory and the upgrade is well worth it if you have an M.2 NVMe socket available.
The 970 Pro has no components on the back side of the card, so it should fit in even the lowest-clearance applications
You can benchmark all you want, but there is 0 perceivable difference between an NVMe and a Sata3 SSD.
