    Carry over from previous build. No issues with this at all for the past 3 years, though the price per TB is muuuuuuch lower now than what it was when I bought it back then.

    Old piece of hardware cannibalized from an old Clevo P650RG from Aftershock rebranded as an Aftershock S15. Still solid after a steady 6 years on. Not the top performer for an M2 - runs about the same as a SATA SSD. Still fine. Would look into an M2 SSD that would perform at a higher rate than this at this point, though.

    Carried over from my previous build. Still running after nearly 5-years, so I got that going for me, which is nice! I'm about to place these into a PCIe M.2 adapter card and install the 2 new 512GB ADATA M.2 drives in RAID-0 on the Aorus Pro.

    This is a good choice for a boot SSD. I haven't had any issues using this as my boot drive. I have notice a slight slow down in writes over the year that I have used this SSD. The SSD is currently 40% full.

    Got this for my laptop about a year or so ago, wiped it and now I use it for my OS & BFV.

    from completed build D.Va Theme (First Build...Kinda)

    Used for OS and non gaming programs/apps. PC boots up faster than the monitor turns on. No cables needed is a plus. Temp runs at 39C in my air-cooled case.

    SSDs are amazing, especially the M.2 style. Samsung makes a quality drive.

    Fast enough for what it does. Not NVMe, so not as fast as all those fancy, expensive drives.

    Same great 850 Evo Series SSD performance, but with the sleek M.2 form factor. Perfect.

    Some of the best bang for your buck for NMVe storage. It's quick, tiny, and is easy as pie to install. Going to get another one, but looking more at the 500GB model
