Fast!
After 2 years of use, I'm still very happy to have installed my OS. Fast access, just as I'd hoped!
However, despite an updated bios, I was unable to connect this drive to the CM's 1st port (ref. below).
Connected to the 2nd port, it was immediately recognised.
Since the problem was with the CM, I'll give it a well-deserved 5 stars.
My configuration :
- ASRock B560 Pro4
- Intel Core i5-10400F (2.9 GHz / 4.3 GHz)
- Textorm 16 GB (2x 8 GB) DDR4 3200 MHz CL16
- ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce® GTX 1650 OC GDDR6 4 GB
- Samsung SSD 970 EVO Plus M.2 PCIe NVMe 250 GB
- be quiet! Pure Loop 240 mm
- Fox Spirit GT-650P V2 80PLUS Platinum
Nothing to complain about, both the hardware and the LDLC service (bought in shop in Villefranche sur Saône).Review automatically translated -

Very fast
Added to an Intel barebone, the PC boots up in a matter of seconds, which really makes a big difference compared to an HDD or even a SATA SSD. Samsung has nothing to prove in this area either, and their SSDs are pretty reliable.

Excellent product
The Samsung SSD 970 EVO Plus M.2 PCIe NVMe 250GB is an excellent choice for users looking for a fast and reliable storage drive. It's ideal for desktops, laptops and games consoles. I bought it so that I could install games on it and everything obviously works perfectly, a little expensive but it is possible to find an equivalent for slightly less (for beginners obviously there are no cables included, just the SSD).
