Review: Great SSD on a sale - Overall a good SSD and the improvements are insane. Came quick through the post and the speeds are all top notch. I am a newbie when it comes to these sort of stuff so I didn't realise you needed a sata cable alongside with the ssd so either make sure you have a spare in your case or buy a new one. Instantly feels like a new pc and boots up windows really quick. I used the data migration tool to transfer most of data from my HDD to the SSD and was really easy and simple, although I found it tricky to pick certain files I wanted to keep and its interface was confusing at first. Games see a massive improvements in load times and in some games in helped with the stuttering I had due to me only running 8gb ram set. Again this doesn't apply for all games only a select few had their stuttering issues disappear when playing watch dogs 2, Kingdom come deliverance and Black ops cold war. Now I got this ssd on a sale for £52. Its definitely worth the price however, if this isnt on sale or retailing at its msrp of £99 then your probably better off getting any cheaper models such as crucial mx500 or bx series. Yes it is from samsung which historically I known to have better build quality and better endurance but usually SSD only last for 5 years before you need to change them. So I say pick this up if this is on a sale if not just go for the cheaper companies. The difference in speeds are hard to see in the real world and more and right now just does not justify the extra £40 compared to its cheaper competition. If its on a sale grab one as personally Samsung products are better in build quality and offer better endurance for the long haul but at £99, your better off getting more storage capacity from a different company at the same price.
Review: Samsung SSD 860 Evo 1 TB SATA3 - The best consumer 1TB SATA SSD - Great for Playstation 4 as well - Samsung SSD 860 Evo 1TB SATA3 When it comes to SATA3 SSD’s, there were only 2 brands for me which I looked at – Samsung and Crucial. This time I opted for this Samsung SSD 860 Evo 1 TB SATA3 to replace a standard HDD as a secondary drive in my laptop – there was already a Nvme SSD as a primary drive for system, etc, but I was fed up with speeds of traditional HDDs. Installation was super easy – I simply replaced a HDD with SSD. Nothing complicated at all – just swap and connect. After powering on, my computer detected SSD without any issues and the only thing required was to format it to to desired format. All done within 30 minutes. Did the swap change anything? Abuslutely yes. My games load several times faster, searching my photo collection is superfast as well as access to my music library. Video editing, encoding and audio editing are absolutely hassle-free. SSD does not also generate any noise and generates less heat, especially with normal usage. I tested my Samsung 860 Evo with AS SSD and CrystalDiskMark – results are great, as expected (disk is half full/half empty) - please see the photos attached. A few details about Samsung 860 Evo 1TB SATA3 (different models may have different specs): - NAND: Samsung V-NAND TLC (aka. 3Bit MLC) - Controller: Samsung MJX Controller - Cache: 1GB LPDDR4 - 5 years warranty or 600TBW - SATA3 Would I buy it again? Absolutely yes. I cannot imagine going back to HDDs, especially not for tasks I use it for. I used Samsung SSD 840 Pro previously, so I knew what to expect from Samsung SSDs (although I could not justify spending extra for Pro series this time). I understand that the price of this disk has not changed for years nearly at all, but the reason for is that it is probably the best SATA3 SSD, which can be purchased. It is also a great disk for PS4/PS4 Pro, although neither Xbox One nor Playstation 4 make a full use of SSD technology. Loading times are still better though, sometimes cut by half. Tested with PS4 Pro out of curiosity. 10/10 score and full recommendation. Warning: Please do not make a mistake and do not buy Samsung QVO SSDs unless you are absolutely sure you want QVO series for some, unknown to me reason. They can be slightly cheaper (but sometimes can even be slightly more expensive), but their performance and reliability due to use of QLC NAND in comparison to Evo and Evo Plus (TLC NAND) is a lot worse. They are still good SSDs in comparison to other brands QLC SSDs but in my opinion there is no reason to buy them as Evo SSDs are a lot better and for similar price.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Needed a bigger SSD.
*by S***R on 24 December 2018*

My 6 year old OCZ Vertex 4 (with only 128GB capacity) has served me absolutely flawlessly, but I just needed more space. My previous SSD was plenty fast enough, so I mainly bought this for the higher capacity. I installed it to the motherboard with an old, but well made and previously unused, SATA1 cable. I did a bit of research beforehand, and basically you don't need a special SATA3 cable to get full SATA3 speeds (but if you do run in to a problem using an old cable, a new cable is probably the first thing you should try). From there, I entered Disk Management in Windows and Initialised the new drive with GPT (use MBR if you want better backwards compatibility with older systems). You need to do that, otherwise the drive will not be recognised in Explorer. I then downloaded Samsung Magician by mistake. I wanted Samsung Data Migration instead. While I was in Samsung Magician though, I read the warning that my firmware was out of date, so I updated it at the click of a button and a restart. While browsing in Samsung Magician I noticed you can also "set aside" some room on the SSD to prolong its life, and I decided to sacrifice 5% for this purpose. After switching to the Samsung Data Migration tool, it automatically identified my old SSD and my new SSD and cloning the drive was done quickly and easily - no configuration needed. The only thing you need to do, as the software says, is close any running programs (like antivirus, nVidia control panel, game updaters, browsers, documents etc). I'm actually surprised (and was quite nervous) that it could clone a live system. I was expecting to have to boot via USB and clone from the cloning program's user interface. That's the way I have cloned drives before, and it's far less user friendly. I'm glad this Samsung tool worked so well, and that it was so easy to use. After the clone was complete, I went in to my UEFI Bios and changed the boot order to the new Samsung SSD, and it booted perfectly from the Samsung. It's great looking at all that extra space! After that, I simply formatted my old SSD, so now it's completely blank, and I'll use it for additional storage. I did some benchmarks to make sure things were OK. I'm getting much better Sequential Read and Write speeds - 562 MB/s read and 531MB/s write - which is like a full 100MB/s faster than my old SSD (which I still consider really quick!). Random Read and Writes are about 100MB/s slower though, and I'm not sure if that's because the drive is bigger and has more space or what. I might do some more investigation in to that, with some googling and maybe a SATA cable swap. It's not urgent, the system feels just as quick as before, no noticeable slowdown or speed up - I just have loads more space now!
