    Customers like the speed of the computer drive. They mention that it works great, has blazing fast bootups, and transfers work fast. The read and write speeds are phenomenal, and it's definitely a noticeable performance boost. Booting into Windows is ultra fast, but really not much faster than a standard SATA SSD. The 980 Pro offers great performance at a great price, and provides tools for optimizing performance. It will make your system so much snappier and work better.

    Works in Dell Latitude 7490
    I got this to upgrade an old Dell Latitude 7490 laptop that originally had an old Dell-branded 256GB m.2 SSD. Works great and is noticeably faster...or maybe it's just me.If you're running Win10/11, I'd recommend installing Samsung Magician software to make sure the firmware is up to date and to run some drive benchmarks to make sure the performance is as expected. I included a screencap of my results from the Samsung Magician software (taken as I am writing this).I opted for this over a 980 Pro due to the attractive price and limitations of this older laptop (ie. PCIe-3). It's just a basic Latitude laptop. As such, I did not think this laptop really would have been able to get the performance level nor taken full advantage of the 980 Pro features (ie, DRAM, etc).For my basic needs, it really works great. I also got this heatsink (https://a.co/d/1kVbi5v) for my laptop. I'm sure I'm not going to be doing anything to push the temps on this, but for a few extra bucks, I figured it was worth the small amount of thermal protection.
