Samsung 970 EVO Plus 500GB M.2 Internal SSD

Wanted to speed up my "C" drive so ordered this. Fitted it to the Motherboard in under half an hour then cloned my original "C" drive onto it. Now Windows 10 starts in a couple of seconds and file access is lightning fast. Highly recommended. Wanted to speed up my "C" drive so ordered this.

I bought this as a boot disk for a VMware host.
It installed on the motherboard directly, so no cables.
It gives an extremely fast boot up of the Host when patching the Hypervisor.
While all this is good reasons to buy, my primary purchase for the 970 plus was for the 5 year warranty.
I have had cheap ESXi boot SSDs in the past and failed 2 to 3 years after installed.
Just buy a good quality product upfront with a new server and not cause yourself grieve down the track. I bought this as a boot disk for a VMware host.
