First and foremost, the speed of the 970 EVO is mind-blowing. From the moment I installed it, I noticed a significant improvement in my system's responsiveness. Boot times have been reduced to a fraction of what they used to be, and applications launch almost instantly. The read and write speeds are simply outstanding, making data transfer a breeze. Whether I'm gaming, editing videos, or working on demanding projects, this SSD handles everything with ease.
The durability and reliability of the 970 EVO are also worth praising. Samsung's V-NAND technology ensures exceptional endurance, allowing me to perform intensive tasks without worrying about drive failure. I appreciate the peace of mind knowing that my valuable data is stored securely.
One aspect I particularly admire about the 970 EVO is its advanced thermal management. Even during extended periods of heavy usage, the drive remains cool and maintains optimal performance. This feature has contributed to the overall longevity of the SSD and further enhances its reliability.
Additionally, the encryption technology employed by Samsung ensures that my data is protected against unauthorized access. It's reassuring to have this level of security for my sensitive files and personal information.
The installation process was straightforward, thanks to the included software and easy-to-follow instructions. Samsung's user-friendly interface made it simple to migrate my data from my previous drive without any hassle.
In terms of value for money, the 970 EVO is definitely worth every penny. While it may be priced at a premium compared to traditional hard drives, the performance and reliability it delivers justify the investment. This SSD has breathed new life into my computer and has undoubtedly elevated my computing experience to new heights.
Here's some things I've noticed since unpackaging my SSD. The first is that this thing is SUPER small. But the size definitely helps make this install much easier. If you have multiple M.2 slots on your motherboard, I recommend making sure you have one that is small enough to accommodate this item. My motherboard has 2 different M.2 slot sizes, and this card is definitely made for the smaller M.2.
Compared to my SATA SSD, this drive was about just as difficult to install. With the SATA SSD, I had to attach a power cable to it, as well as the cable that attached to the motherboard, as well as ensuring it was secure in a chassis. With an M.2 drive, this isn't necessary. You unscrew the tiny screw at the end of the M.2 slot, insert the card at roughly a 30 degree angle, and gently push it down and screw it into place. I say it's about as difficult because the screw is small and can be hard to get threaded again once it's removed, especially with the added complexity of having the M.2 drive in there as well. However, it's not anything that would take much effort at all.
I knew what I wanted to use this SSD for, so I opted for the 1TB drive. This is more than enough space for what I need, and the drive is insanely fast. I have several games loaded on it, including Red Dead Redemption II, Grand Theft Auto V, and Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege. These are frequently played for me, and I figured installing them on a drive like my new NVMe SSD, I'd see some performance improvements. I absolutely did. Rainbow Six appears to load instantly every time I try the single player options (Training Grounds), and I remember hearing the other day as I loaded into a competitive match "How is this guy in already?" Red Dead Redemption II does still take some time to load, but considering the loading the game needs to do, it's forgivable considering it is still much faster than my PS4 Pro when loading up the game. GTAV is in a similar boat, but I'd argue that game has an even bigger load time boost than Red Dead. The performance of this drive should make any PC player happy.
Overall, this is a fantastic product, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking to give their PC an extra speed advantage.

Então assim, se você ver ele com um preço bom em relação a outros SSDs do mesmo tamanho, vale a pena comprar.
.
Caso esteja muito mais caro, talvez não valha todo o investimento. Para um usuário comum, um SSD Sata pode ser suficiente para dar aquele UP no PC. Agora, para quem quer desempenho máximo, essa é a peça.
.
É importante lembrar que seu PC precisa suportar SSDs M2 do tipo NVMe e tamanho 2280 para instalar esse bichinho. Outra coisa a se considerar, principalmente se seu PC não tem dissipador de SSD M2, é comprar um dissipador avulso. O 970 EVO, por conta do desempenho, gera altas temperaturas. Sem nada dissipando, passa dos 70 graus brincando. Comprei um dissipador barato da China e instalei nele, hoje não passa de 59 graus em uso máximo.

Update: it’s been nearly 2 yrs that I installed this drive. Seems to be working fine. Perfect integration with the Mac OS. Have noted some heating issue but not sure if all of it is due to the drive since my Mac is 5+ yrs old. But it has increased longevity of my device no doubt. I would absolutely recommend this to all.

If your tower can accommodate a second SSD for programs, that would be even better if not you may want to bump up to 500GB if you install a lot of programs.
I would have no reason to recommend it, since most people would be fine with a regular 2.5 sata SSD. I probably would in all honesty. Unless a regular SSD is bottleneck for you, and many have never even used older SATA SSDs. It is definitely good quality and value for anyone who needs it.
