So I just finished a fresh install with the Samsung 950 Pro 256GB - Windows 10 Home. Dam it's fast... No issues whatsoever with it running as a boot drive... But the boot time it a touch slow, tap, tap, tap awaiting a better bios update.

a simple kingston v300 blasted the shit out of my 2012 Macbook Pro

 

Also still running a 830evo in my rig, hdtune says health 100%, 0% bad sectors, life is great

 

SSD's are a gift from the gods
