Safe Mode, format, rebooted W10 and was able to complete a fresh installation of W10

Installation is easy as long as you can get to it.

This is doing everything I need it to do, lightning fast, and installation was super easy.

Second: installation was a pain

Installation was easy and rebooting and reinstallation of windows 10 was smooth.

you will need to order them separately for proper installation.

Neither cloning software - Samsung and Macrium Reflect were able to clone the original hard drive and I eventually gave up and did a clean installation

Fast, easy installation for a laptop - you will need more to install it in a desktop

Clean installation of W10 took about 2 minutes, opening and closing programs is also fast

The advertised read/write speeds are correct as I

Sequential read performance is outstanding ~3500MB/s

Not as perfect as the 970 PRO, but significantly cheaper

Samsung migration software is very easy to use but needs work as it doesn't copy your recovery partitions

I use this for sound libraries for composing on the PC as well as for raw video clips when doing video editing in Adobe Premiere Pro

Still works as it should.
