I think (hope) that it complained because I had migrated an only partially-filled 1TB mechanical hard drive into a 500GB SSD

Samsung doesn't offer a 750GB and the 1TB was well over $300 at the time of this writing.

i wish the 1TB and 2TB were cheaper, but at the same time i think 500GB is more than enough because usually things i dont use take up my needed space.

I used this to replace a sloooow 1 TB

A 250gb ssd main drive, WD 1tb hard drive for games, and just installed the Samsung 500

I had a WD 1tb hard drive, I've had this drive for about 2 and a half years now

Faster than other brands, written over 12tb now still going strong.

Purchased a new laptop that came with a 1T hard drive but a bit slow for my taste
