Thanks to this SSD, even the Windows Explorer search is usable, my coffee consumption is cut in half!
Again, similar feelings as seven years ago when I switched from HDD to SATA SSD.

1a SSD as you would expect from Samsung. Both the boot time and the normal work with the SSD in m2 format are enormous fun!
The specified speed is actually always maintained - but often even exceeded.
Installation should be very easy for everyone and takes no more than 1 minute.

12.05.2019: I read that the EVO Plus was the fastest and that's why I bought it, 1TB big. Under the Graka on the Gigabyte motherboard, the EVO+ became hot 56° degrees. So I bought the Aqua Computer kryoM.2 adapter card with passive cooler. Since then I've been measuring 34°-36°C, similar to the temperature of my 860 EVO. I can highly recommend everyone to use an adapter card with a cooler for the M.2 SSD, because it gets warmer than an SSD by default.
Speed-wise, the 970 EVO Plus feels faster than an 860 EVO Basic 1TB.
24.09.2020: A few months ago I measured computer performance with "UserBenchmark". It came out that the Samsung 970 EVO Plus performs below average on the adapter card. Plugged directly into the motherboard, the performance was better and in line with the average. I then bought a new AsRock X470 Taichi motherboard (https://www.digitec.ch/de/s1/product/asrock-x470-taichi-am4-amd-x470-atx-mainboard-8393235), on which the 970 EVO Plus now runs a bit faster.
