Review on πŸ’Ύ SAMSUNG 970 EVO SSD 1TB - M.2 NVMe Interface Internal Solid State Drive with V-NAND Technology, Black/Red by Micha Kowalski Czajo ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great quality, did not expect at all for the price.

I loved the drive overall, although it became pretty hot when I used it, which is to be expected given the high speeds it can get, so I'm considering getting a radiator for it. M2 format drives, which I'm using for the first time, appear much more practical and compact than the standard 2.5 or 3.5. Even though they claim there shouldn't be any difference (application download speed should be practically similar), it's worth noting that working in Windows has gotten more pleasant (previously, it was 2.5 hdd on mlc from patriot).

Pros
  • The rate at which you work. Reviews suggest a very high degree of dependability. A guarantee for 5 years only. Using a memory with 92 layers (9x-). Similar to the cost of the newer model (970 EVO).
Cons
  • Price. Extreme heat.
