Arrived today and it's pretty awesome. I've tried 7, maybe 8 or so different brands of SSD drives, and various models within those brands over the years, and have to say that once again going with a Samsung doesn't disappoint. This Pro model is fast and snappy. Of the 2 testing programs I use the 860 Pro has outscored everything else i've ever tested. Simply awesome.

Returning this $1,500 piece of junk! There were hiccups from the very beginning, I figured it was "user error" because I was able to get it to work. Today I tried to use it and the drive cannot be read by ANY of my computers, PC and Mac. I wish Crucial had 4TB drives. Crucial SSD's are the absolute BEST! I have a Crucial1GB SSD that I've had for 4 years and it works great never given me any problems. *Crucial MX500 2TB* <<< I'll be purchasing a 2TB drive from Crucial, maybe 2. I see they only cost $389.99, total $779.98 for 2 which makes me feel even more ripped off that I purchase this $1,500 piece of Samsung junk!

This product boasts a slightly higher transfer rate and longer lifetime for double the price of the evo equivalent. I have several evos that have been constantly used for the past 4 years and have no issues. Perhaps these are more durable and last longer than the evos, but realistically I do not see having the same high speed storage medium for long enough to experience this. I would suggest getting the M2 version of this instead. The transfer rates are much higher and it is in the same price range.

This was 2nd ssd from Samsung, first one did not work. This installed OK, then about 3 weeks ago kept getting chk dsk on start up. I called and they were going to send me an email with shipping instructions fro sending it in for checkup. Two weeks ago and still nothing. This morning I got a restart. The error was critical in event viewer. Support sucks!!

I attempted to install this drive (1T) multiple ways and in two different laptops and one desktop. All modes resulted in the same result; the drive was not recognized. I don't know if the drive was defective when built or if it was somehow passed through a magnetic barrier or what but it was defective right out of the box. Might just be one of those unlucky 2%. Returned, refund recieved. Researching alternatives.

The white product label doesn’t match the product box. The white label is for the ‘PRO’ model and the manufacturer's label and box are for the value priced ‘QVO’ model which is over $100 less.

I have three of these. One of them has failed within a year. Used within a desktop gaming PC and a laptop gaming PC.
I love the performance of these SSDs but that one that failed really hurt my wallet.
