Can someone help tell me if this ssd will work?

omnirowdy · Dec 20, 2015

I want a 850 pro and am looking on bestbuy and see this one http://www.bestbuy.com/site/samsung-850-pro-512gb-internal-serial-ata-iii-solid-state-drive-for-laptops-black/2167165.p?id=1219530041648&skuId=2167165

but it says its for laptops and i want the 512gb one but the only one they have says for laptops, is that incorrect on there part or is it really only for laptops? Thanks.

all ssds in that format can be used in most laptops and in all desktops and get evo not pro http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-2-5-Inch-Internal-MZ-75E500B-AM/dp/B00OBRE5UE/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1450642362&sr=1-1&keywords=850+evo

You are good.

For laptops might mean that the package includes a usb to ssd adapter cable.
There is only one 850 PRO and it fits either.
The evo will perform the same; buy that if there is a good price savings.
The pro has more endurance; it will last 15 years vs. 10 for the evo.
Both will be obsolete by then.

I heard that the pro will last longer and it wont slow down once I write more to it. is that true?

it will only do that in very extreme cases( people who write massive amounts of data hence the pro name for extreme use) for regular users that will never happen and would actually be hard to do evo is a way better value for the money and speed wise you wont notice a difference.
