Let's start with performance. The 970 EVO Plus delivers blazing-fast read and write speeds, thanks to its PCIe NVMe interface and cutting-edge V-NAND technology. Whether I'm booting up my system, launching applications, or transferring large files, the SSD handles tasks with remarkable speed and responsiveness. It's a true workhorse that significantly enhances the overall performance and efficiency of my PC.
In terms of reliability, Samsung has a proven track record, and the 970 EVO Plus is no exception. With its robust design and advanced heat dissipation features, the SSD maintains optimal performance even under heavy workloads. The reliability and durability of Samsung's SSDs give me peace of mind, knowing that my data is safe and secure.
Price is another area where Samsung excels. Despite offering top-tier performance, the 970 EVO Plus is competitively priced compared to other SSDs in its class. The value proposition of Samsung's storage devices is unmatched, making them an excellent investment for PC enthusiasts and professionals alike.
Installation is a breeze thanks to the M.2 form factor, which eliminates the need for bulky cables and simplifies cable management in my PC build. The sleek and compact design of the SSD also helps optimize airflow and maintain a clean and clutter-free setup.
Overall, the Samsung 970 EVO Plus 1 TB PCIe NVMe M.2 SSD continues to uphold Samsung's reputation for excellence in the world of storage devices. With its unbeatable combination of price, performance, reliability, and ease of installation, it's no wonder that Samsung remains my go-to choice for SSDs. Whether you're a gamer, content creator, or professional, the 970 EVO Plus is sure to meet and exceed your storage needs. Highly recommended.
Personally I use this drive for multiple virtual machines where it seems to be more responsive when booting, installing or performing disk heavy I/O. I could manage just fine on a SATA model, but this NVMe causes the VMs to feel more snappy and responsive in this scenario. Outside of this specific workload, the drive feels similar to my SATA SSDs since my other tasks are not usually limited by storage performance. After all, SATA solid state drives are already significantly faster and have very low latency compared to spinning rust (hard drives). Benchmarks were ran on my Ryzen 2700X system with an Asus Crosshair X470 motherboard.
Due to being so compact and fast, these drives can get hot. Under heavy sequential write workloads these drives can get toasty and potentially throttle. Running CrystalDiskMark with default settings saw a peak temperature of 64C (22C ambient, installed in desktop but with no active airflow). I suspect that in a restrictive environment, such as a laptop, that throttling could possibly be common in heavy workloads.
Packaging is good. Small cardboard box with a plastic shell protecting the SSD drive. It did not come with a screw to install the drive though as these are usually included with your motherboard. Very easy to install with no cables needed.
Samsung magician software is also decent and easy to use with a clean design. I have tried a range of tools from other manufacturers but the Samsung software is a clear winner. It isn’t necessary, but it allows you to benchmark the drive, set overprovisioning, secure erase and more.
Also make sure to install the Samsung NVMe driver from their website for optimal performance.
As for Amazon, I have a mixed experience. The first drive I ordered was stolen (broken security seal and drive missing) but they quickly arranged a replacement without any hassle. The product itself though is fantastic.
