    Buy it. Just do it.
    Wow. I don't know why I waited so long to do this, I've known my computer had an M.2 slot for a while now, and finally took the plunge and bought this Samsung 860 Evo SSD. I should have done this as soon as I bought the computer, lol.For reference, the laptop that I installed this in is an Acer Aspire R5-571t. If your laptop will support the newer Samsung SSD (970 right now) then maybe buy it. I bought this one in particular for compatibility with my Acer motherboard. This laptop won't run the newer SSD but it will run this one. It's definitely worth doing. It was very easy to install, but remember to buy the screw. Samsung doesn't provide one with the drive, and this laptop doesn't come with a screw, either, although it does have the riser. It took about two hours to clone a 1TB SATA drive over to the new Samsung SSD, using Samsung Migration software.The speed improvements are just phenomenal. Even on fast boot, the original hard drive took a long time to boot. Now it boots very fast, just seconds, apps and programs open almost immediately, and downloads are even faster. The battery life improvements are very noteworthy, as well. The battery never lasted longer than 4 hours with the original hard drive, now I can get over 6 hours or more even watching videos. This is exactly what this laptop needed, it's just about perfect now.Here's a quick tip:Download Samsung Magician.As long as your SSD shows up on Samsung Magician software, and it says it's compatible with your system, you're good to use Samsung Migration to clone your old drive. Even if the new SSD doesn't show up in Windows file explorer. On my laptop, I could find the drive in the disk management menu and the BIOS, but not file explorer, until everything got cloned over to the new SSD. Now it shows up just fine.
