    5.0 out of 5 stars Massive Storage, Supercharged Performance, and Easy Installation!
    Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2024
    I recently upgraded my PC with the SAMSUNG 990 EVO Plus SSD (2TB), and I’m genuinely impressed by how much of a boost it’s given my overall system performance—especially for gaming. The advertised up to 7,250 MB/s read speed isn’t just a flashy spec; I’ve noticed significantly faster load times in all my favorite games. Even large open-world games boot up in a fraction of the time they used to.

    Performance & Speed
    Blazing Load Times: The difference is immediately noticeable when launching games or heavy applications.
    Smooth Gameplay: Once in the game, maps load faster, and textures pop in seamlessly—no more waiting around.
    Storage Capacity
    Ample 2TB Space: I can store my entire game library and still have room for video editing projects and other files. No more juggling which titles to uninstall just to make space.
    Ease of Installation
    Straightforward Setup: This was my first time installing an M.2 SSD, and the process was surprisingly simple. I just popped off my PC case panel, slid the drive into the M.2 slot, and secured the screw—it took under 10 minutes.
    Compatible & Hassle-Free: My motherboard recognized the drive instantly, and cloning my old drive data was quick thanks to Samsung’s software tools.
    Price & Value
    Great Price Point: For the speed and the large capacity, I found this SSD to be a solid value. It’s certainly cheaper than many other premium PCIe Gen 4 drives on the market, and well worth the investment if you love to game or handle large files regularly.
    Overall, if you’re looking to breathe new life into your PC or laptop, the SAMSUNG 990 EVO Plus is a stellar choice. It combines huge storage, lightning-fast speeds, and an easy install process—everything a PC enthusiast could want. I absolutely love upgrading my computer, and this SSD is hands down one of my favorite additions!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Made a huge difference in my computer's performance, but check prices elsewhere.
    Reviewed in the United States on October 19, 2024
    The HDD that came with my computer was becoming a bottleneck for performance or either it was failing. The disk performance from task manager showed the disk pegged at 100% most of the time. My research indicated that replacing it with a SSD would solve my problem. I purchased this SSD, same size as my HDD and used the software that came with it to clone the HDD to the SSD (about 35 mins.) and made it the boot drive. The changing of the boot process was a little complicated and had to view many help videos to accomplish but finally did it. Don't get me wrong, it was an involved process but this old woman got it done! The difference is incredible. No more performance problems!

    My biggest gripe is that 2 weeks after I purchased it the price dropped and Amazon doesn't refund differences. So suck it up if that happens to you or buy elsewhere. That is why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5.
