I recently purchased a Samsung 850 evo SSD for my desktop pc. It worked great. When i decided to up date my Lanovo 570 laptop with a used i5 cpu and 8 gigs of crucial ram. i thought i should update my hard drive to an SSD. I went cheap with this ssd. Big mistake. It stopped booting after less than 30 days of use. I was not able to recover anything on it. All my files, all my programs my windows 10 and its product key. All because I went cheap. I think it was 20 or 30 dollars less than my Samsung evo.
This hard drive was installed in a business environment, It was used for less than 5 months then died. The nature of the failure was such that the files can be seen, but nothing can be accessed. I even brought it to a data recovery center that couldn't recover the data with Linux. I contact Newegg, and they told me it was not their problem and gave me the manufacture's contact number....a number which went no where. Save your money, avoid this drive and newegg, the drive is junk. And newegg is not what they used to be!
