Samsung 980 PRO PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD 2TB, Solid State Hard Drive

Very fast SSD - used it to replace origin boot up ssd.

Definitely a great high quality product

Looks the perfect size for my new puppy. Good value for money

Really nice dog absolutely loves it

Very reliable and fast NVMe, 2TB and is used as my game drive and can load my games very quickly and transfer speeds quickly and reliably.

I unfortunately am one of the individuals who's drive failed (due to a firmware related issue). I purchased a 2TB 980 pro and it last for about 1 year and then failed. It had the commonly related issue of the media becoming read only as well as my PC giving a critical alert that the drive was about to fail.The issue was customer service - which was incapable of handing a fairly easy issue and ended up in the fact I was not able to have the product replaced.I purchased this through Amazon, but I didn't realise it was from a supplier based in the US. This is where the issue occurred. I have found Amazon pretty good when it comes to returns, so it's not been a concern, but as this replacement was through the warranty I had to contact Samsung.Samsung Europe told me the drive had an American serial number and had to be processed by US Samsung support. US Samsung support was slow to respond and told me they may be able to replace or fix it, but I had to pay for sending and return. Unfortunately this from UK to US came to about $170 (this was the lowest cost I could find) in total and regarding this cost was not worth sending as I may as well just purchase a new drive.It was frustrating how disconnected US and Europe support was and for a device that has a worldwide warranty.It's very unlikely I will ever purchase another Samsung PC component and purchasing any component on Amazon I will check where the supplier is based.

I don’t feel that it was very well made for indoor use. The silicone stoppers/protectors for the poles don’t fit securely; they needed to be taped in place. Plus not all the bars are securely welded to meet the frames so there are sharp edges in places.

I needed a bigger drive which a 2tb would do just fine. i went for a Samsung as they make fine drives. I had a Samsung 1tb 970 which I have had for 4 years it has been perfect. I do not have the Pcie 4 so I cannot get the full protentional of the drive. It was very easy to clone the drive through Macrium Reflect. The Operating System found it straight away. It works just fine in my system.
