About this product

Product Information

This Samsung 840 PRO 512GB Internal 2.5-inch SSD, or solid state drive, is perfect whether you are replacing an existing disk or building a new machine. Samsung SSDs are well respected in the industry and feature unrivaled performance for SATA III machines. The PM971-NVME features faster speeds than a mechanical hard drive. You can read and write data at around 520 MB/s. Data retrieval speeds can theoretically reach a blazing 540 MB/s. It also wins in the IOPS category, offering 100K read and 90K write results. SSD volumes have no moving parts. This makes them extremely resilient against shock damage and temperature. Samsung packed in advanced security features into this drive such as 256-bit encryption. If you're shopping for a larger memory capacity like a 1TB or 2TB storage volume, then you can add multiple drives to make your computer run faster. On the other hand, if you want to divide your drive into a number of smaller volumes, then you can partition any Samsung SSD using MBR or GUID technology. You can create two 256GB logical volumes out of each SSD. You can even make a smaller 128GB logical disk while the rest of the 512GB volume can go toward some other purpose. Your file browser will still be able to access it all.Partitioning your solid state disk is a good idea if you want to dual boot a Macintosh laptop. Samsung has engineered each volume they make for compatibility with all different kinds of hardware. If you wanted to dedicate one partition to a Microsoft operating system and another to Apple system software, then you can do that. This compatibility means that each SSD will always work with the cable installed on your motherboard. It doesn't matter whether you use an Intel or AMD CPU. It's compatible with most modern motherboards even on Apple laptops with proprietary accessories.Data migration on this NAND disk is surprising easily. If you have a large number of files saved to another drive, then you can quickly copy them right over without data loss. It's fully compatible with the disk imaging system used on Macintosh machines, too. If you want to copy photos from an iPhone or other mobile device, then you will have more than enough space to do it. Pro-level flash memory volumes can outclass most other MLC tech. However, they are still compatible with all of these accessories.If you have a small-form factor machine and you want multiple volumes in it, then you can install this alongside a series of older disks. It uses cells smaller than a postage stamp, and it won't generate very much heat as a result. This is true even if you're doing serious gaming or video editing. You could even use it to record a movie from television. The power consumption is low enough that shooting video straight to it won't run down your battery. No matter what type of computer you use, this is the perfect replacement for your current volumes.

  • Great Product, Low Price!

    So simple to install. Used cloning software to transfer small SSD data to this Samsung 840 Pro and was ready to go literally in 15 minutes. May buy another one just as a backup.

  • Excellent in every sense of the word

    Hands down the best price for one of the longest lasting solid state drives on the market Samsung has the longest life on there solid state drives when compared to the others available on the market. I am a gamer and this drive is where I have all of my regularly played games and boots in and out of them very fast. Plus you won't find a better price on such a quality product out there

  • SSD drive comes with excellent "Samsung Magician" software.

    I made this drive my "C" drive, and installed w10 on it. I then installed my programs on the drive. No problems; except it always tested slower than it should. The speed problem turned out to be the old sata cables that I was using. Once I changed to the latest sata cable, the drive was no longer bottle necked. The drive comes with Samsung Magician software to work with the drive, whereas other manufacturers don't supply any software for you. If I was a gamer, then I would be looking for a much larger capacity drive, but for what I do, 512 gb is ok.
