Our take
As an upgrade for an aging laptop, this Samsung 850 EVO 500GB SSD is definitely a sensible choice. The 560MB/s read speed is quite respectable for a SATA III drive, ensuring quick boot times and application loading. While 500GB might not satisfy everyone's storage needs, it's perfectly adequate for an operating system and a good selection of programs. The low noise level is a given with SSDs, but it's always a welcome feature. Bear in mind that this is an older generation model compared to the latest SSDs, but it still offers excellent value for a noticeable performance boost.
