5 stars not enough

Just setup with Windows 10 and zooooom. Up and running so fast I didn't even have time to measure it. Even the first run of updates finished in under a minute (was watching closer this time).

Well, it is a Samsung and they tend to make very good electronics. Time will tell.

Got two so onto cloning to see how fast that works.

TOP CRITICAL REVIEW
Bad blocks everywhere no warranty

-was a bit faster than the NVMe drive it replaced

-unreliable product bad blocks showed up fairly quickly
-cannot make a clone/backup of my data
-samsung doesn't honour their warranties in canada

Drive seemed to work fine at the beginning, altho i have only had it for 8 months. Decided to do a back up/clone of it using acronis. Well Acronis reported bad sectors and recommended chkdsk, which i did, but nothing was detected. Used Samsung's magician app and sure enough during the long scan found 14 bad blocks, worst part is their own software option "Repair" didn't work.
Finally i found out that samsung doesn't honour their warranties in canada so i am out what i paid for this drive in only 8 months
