Same kind of advertisement as for cars. Damn I hate that style where they try to sell you a lifestyle. Like I'm going to head out in the desert, take up surfing or go buffalo watching just because I own a car, drone, whatever.
But I agree that they do look cool. But I'd probably just crash it in a lake or something.
That reminds me, I've actually played with the idea to use a drone or other rc vehicles to drag my line out in to the lake when I fish.
No need to throw just fly out and drop the line. Or hook it behind a rc boat and drag after, rig it so that the line gets released when a fish bites.
Where I live it's illegal to operate a boat under the influence but nothing about small rc toys, or atleast not that I'm aware of. A bit off topic but it's late in the day so sue me. Please don't.

Well, whoever that is, she doesn't look like a drone to me; of course, with all the cyber-genetic stuff going on, you can't be really sure.

Okay, since this is that kind of thread - I want one of these, but I thin my wife will probably not approve the purchase since it'll be about $5-10k to do:

I saw that too - but they do not send it to me...
Those online stores DO ship to here, sell it for $200 and has two options: free shipping in 6-14 weeks! or UPS for about $30...So the difference is not that much...
I was actually asking about the quality of the SSD...

My first SSD purchase was the 120 gb Samsung EVO Pro; using that as the boot-drive resulted in a remarkable speed-up of everything. I was persuaded by reviews on Tom's Hardware and AnandTech, and "buyer reviews" on NewEgg. The 3 year warranty was also a deciding factor.
At this point the Samsung drives are the only SSD's I'd consider.

Is it for a Laptop or Desktop?
If the computer has enough room for two or more drives get a smaller, cheaper SSD (120Gb) and run it with a normal HDD for data storage, works well for me.
Mine is a Samsung 850 EVO Pro they are excellent.

Laptop. Has room for one (and the current is 500GB and I think to ghost it)...

OK then in that case the 500Gb Samsung would definitely be a good choice. I do have a SanDisk SSD in my work laptop that works well too.

A couple of weeks ago, I had to replace my system drive and I purchased the Pro version of this drive. I am very pleased with it, but some suggestions:
1) Check out the reviews for this drive on Amazon. There are numerous reports that the software that Samsung provides will offer to upgrade the firmware. DO NOT DO THIS. The new firmware will totally fry the drive. The firmware out of the box works fine!
2) This same Samsung software is not compatible with Windows 10. This did not bother me, as I totally avoided installing the Samsung software. (Samsung may have fixed this issue by now.)
3) I had a systems drive image made by an old version of Acronis. I could not use it, because the old Acronis did not work with this drive. I do not know if later versions will work. I ended up having to install Windows 10 from an installation DVD.
The installation went remarkable smoothly and I am very pleased with the drive's warp speed!
