Review: Samsung rocks..... For now. - This M.2SSD rocks... Works perfectly and very effective. This is my replacement to the Kingston 2000 I bought 3 years ago. Don't know why I shifted to Kingston, turned out to be my greatest mistake because I buy samsung eer'thing. Looks like I'm selling my: Lenovo 330s RAM 8GB M.2SSD 500GB HDD 1TB in the next 5 years.... Perhaps never selling it altogether. Also, speed is good. I recommend this drive again and again.
