Samsung 850 EVO mSATA 250GB card
I have an older Thinkpad with an mSATA slot under the keyboard; I started off with a Samsung SM841 128GB mSATA card for a boot drive along with a Samsung 860 EVO 500gb storage drive. I wanted a larger and faster boot drive in order to do a dual-boot project with Linux on the same machine (which already has Win10 Pro). I had come across the 250GB 850 EVO cards previously and read some good reviews, so I found this one and gave it a shot. I cloned over the old card to the new one, and the performance increase was noticeable (the laptop already has 16GB of memory). After I loaded the dual-boot and installed Ubuntu, you could tell it slowed down a little. Ubuntu runs great, but Windows is seemingly running like it did with the older card now. I guess that's part of the price of having two operating systems on the same HDD. This is my first time doing a dual-boot project so I wasn't sure what to expect in terms of performance. Samsung has been my #1 for computer parts for years now; all of my computers use Samsung SSD's for their boot drives. If you have an older machine that's mSATA capable and you're looking to add an mSATA SSD to your computer, you can't go wrong with the 850 EVO products.
