(MZ-V7E1T0BW 970 EVO SSD 1TB - M.2 NVMe Interface Internal Solid State Drive with V-NAND Technology, Black/Red

Brilliant!! Never be the last person loading into a game lobby ever again!! Pros: FAST Reliable Easy to install Reasonably priced Not a lot of tools required :D Cons: NON!!!!

I bought the 1Tb version of the EVO 970 to replace the 500Gb SSD in an Asus UX501VW. The drive worked great with no need to update the BIOS. I was worried that this SSD would run too hot in the laptop, but looking online it appeared that it was actually cooler under load than the old drive (Samsung XP941). I think this has proved to be the case and the laptop appears to be running cooler under load than it did with the old SSD installed, although this is just my impression as I haven't taken any actual temperature readings. The drive also appears quicker than the old one, disk to disk copies are very rapid. I wasn't sure that there would be much performance improvement as the laptop only has a PCIE x4 2.0 interface, not 3.0, but this drive is definitely quicker. It was the increased drive size, relatively cool ssd (compared to the existing one), the fact that the drive was made by the market leader, and the hope that as I was replacing a Samsung drive with a Samsung drive compatibility issues would be less likely, that steered me towards the EVO 970. All in all I'm very happy with this drive.

Going from a regular sata m.2 to an nvme isn't a huge jump but this i noticed. When i have most applications on my computer open on startup, the old sata m.2 would struggle but this beast powers through at lightning speed. I've even shifted some of my most played games to this drive and loading screens have been slashed which is a welcome change. No issues with this at all, excellent drive.

Very easy to fit, just one small screw required to secure under it's own heatsink on my motherboard. Using it as my Windows 10 system drive and it was recognised during the install with no problems at all. At approx £150 it may seem expensive but when you think of the advantages you get from a M2 drive, vastly reduced loading times and no messing about with SATA cables it is well worth it as far as I'm concerned.

It is what it is ... a rapid M.2 1TB SSD. Whacked into a new build PC as boot and software storage ... it's great. Very speedy and plenty of capacity for the future. Pricey but you get what you pay for and these samsung M.2 drives review superbly. Now I can see why. Great SSD.

I bought this to improve the performance of my computer. It was simple to install, hardly takes up any room because it is so thin and was well worth the money.

It has been very trying to get this drive working in my laptop, and I'm not sure it's even over yet. But, having said that; I bought it because a few of my games had load times so long as to render them unplayable... and they don't anymore. So I got what I wanted, but it was substantially harder to get there than I expected. (This is my personal experience using this product with an Alienware Laptop. Your experience may be different.)

Even if you dont need one id recomend purly on the speeds these can acheive, nothing better then seconds in boot time to get in to windows from the time you power, on great load time when playing games compared to SSD or HDD, the price in 2020 for M.2 NVME is also another reason for recomending these. A++++ product.

This is definitely a product to purchase if you are looking for a quick, easy and cheaper upgrade of your laptop. I have a MacBook Air early 2015 with 128GB SSD storage. I was looking to trade in for a newer Mac when I stumbled upon this product. Product was delivered on time, and it was very easy to change the existing SSD to this new one. It has been over 6 months now and my laptop works just fine, with both Windows and Mac running smooth.

What you see is what you get. Performance wise is speechless.

I like it use it to upgrade my ssd hard drive in my laptop

Hi Everyone, This review will solve most of your doubts (If not all) regarding SSD and how to install it and DIY in the home without anyone's help. This is the best NVME SSD available in the market and if you have the money to spend on the SSD then go for it. It is the best. Now talking about compatibility yes it is compatible with all laptops which are having M.2 NVME slot and having M keying. M keying means it will be having a single notch on the PCI-E slot as well as on the SSD. For this review and youtube video, I am using the Asus FX553VD laptop which is beast and have the best configuration available in the market. So talking about compatibility it is compatible with all modern laptop having M.2 PCI Express slot and the popular Laptop list is below. Well if you want you can even clone your older windows onto this SSD without losing anything ( every program and setting will work same as it was on the older HDD ) using Samsung Data Migration software which is free and It will work flawlessly, although if possible go for a clean install as it will improve system performance. You can still use your previous HDD without any doubt as a normal storage and this SSD is very well detected in bios so no issue on that. Also talking about boot time it has reduced to one - third than my previous 7200 rpm hard disk which took around 16 seconds to boot. Apart from that major changes, you will see when you open browsers like chrome and Mozilla which will open instantly and also if you are doing editing stuff then opening time of Programs like Premiere Pro, Lightroom, Photoshop, After effects take very less time and work very well. The rendering time is really awesome earlier for a 5-minute full HD video was taking around 30 to 40 minutes which has been reduced to 5- 10 minutes which is a huge improvement and I really love that. So if you really want blazing fast speed then this SSD is for you and is worth for every paise you spent. Also, the benchmark test results can be found in photos.
