This is very fast and you will notice a huge difference if coming from a mechanical hard drive. If your motherboard supports 4 PCIe lanes on the M.2 slot. If however you only have 2 lanes (Boards with a Z97 chipset for example) then not so fast but it will still be faster than a SATA SSD. You can however purchase a “M.2 PCIe NVMe or PCIe AHCI SSD to PCIe 3.0 x4 Adapter Card” if your board only has 2 PCIe lanes. The adapter will give you 4 lanes, provided you have a free slot on your Motherboard that uses 4 lanes. Also make sure to download the latest Samsung NVMe driver and the Magician software from the Samsung website.

Purchased 2 of these on the same order, I was very surprised when I opened the โapparentlyโ unopened box to box three pieces of perfectly cut cardboard in place of my 500GB Drive.
The label on the bottom of the box has been put on after the content removed to cover up the process, but the labels have a ver obvious issue, apart from just not looking right, the all contain exactly the same details.
You have been warned so if you purchase please be prepared to receive cardboard which will not store 500GB of data!

Box had a 1TB Sticker and a 500GB sticker on it. Inside was a pack of playing cards….

The first paragraph of this review is specific to Macbook purposes. Skip if this isn’t relevant to your situation.
I only bought one because I had to; the Macbook Air 2013-2017 don’t use 2.5″ SATA, so if you want to upgrade one you’ll need an M.2 drive like this and a third-party adapter bracket. I used this drive, fearing that the NVMe controller might be a problem, but happily it isn’t. On a 2017 Macbook Air 13″ it worked fine without any messing about. Older Macbooks might struggle because the built-in Internet Recovery service doesn’t have NVMe support, so if that’s the case make sure you have USB installation media for High Sierra before you begin.
Now some general points to put this SSD in context compared to other SSDs: yes, it has ridiculously fast data transfer speeds. No, it doesn’t matter to 99% of people. It can do sustained sequential reads around the 2.1GB/s mark, which is ridiculous. It uses 4 lanes of a PCI-express bus, which is massive overkill for normal domestic…

I eagerly awaited my new ssd card and when I opened it, all what was in the box were 3 perfectly cut cardboard squares and NO sdd card. VERY DISAPPOINTED…… Spoke to customer support who said they would send a replacement….. Still annoyed that it happened… Maybe dishonest staff at amazon???
UPDATE… I have my replacement and all is well. I installed the card to one of my m2 connections (the lower one on the rog Crosshair Formula vii … no heatshield required there and it doesn’t share the pcie with my graphics card in that port. VERY FAST to clone existing ssd drive.. 9 minutes.. All software loads incredibly fast.. Great Product.

Great product. Does the job. Fast. Reason why I only gave it 3 starts for “Easy to Install” is because the Samsung Magician Software for cloning SSD’s is crap. It didn’t recognise the attached USB drive for cloning. Having read various forums, the solution was to use free cloning software by a company called Macrium. Macrium was amazing – easy to use, recognised the Samsung SSD and made a perfect copy of the bootable drive. I bought several USB enclosures for the Samsung SSD and had to return as they did not recognise the drive. Finally, I bought the Adwits enclosure which recognised the Samsung SSD immediately in Windows. So would suggest you buy
“Adwits USB 3.1 UASP Type-C to NVMe M.2 High-Performance PCIe SSD Adapter, Portable HDD Enclosure Case for Samsung, Kingston, ADATA, DREVO and More NVM” to go with this drive.

Best hold off on purchasing these from Amazon as they have a fake batch of Samsung 970 Pro’s in their distribution stock. I received this on 20/10/2018 so until they sort this out best hold off. There is glue on the gold connectors, it is not even an M Key connector more like compact flash. It has no memory chips in between the paper cover. It is literally made of paper with some incompatible connector poorly glued. How this has occurred because the box was sealed?
