  • Abstract:  When we did this shootout last year , we remarked that prices of SSDs have fallen dramatically, to record lows even, making them more accessible to even mainstream users. In the past year, we saw prices of SSDs stabilizing and also noted several trends in...

  • Débits au niveau des meilleurs SSD du marché, Mémoire MLC offrant une durée de vie de 3000 cycles, 7 mm d'épaisseur (livré avec adaptateur 9 mm), parfait pour tous les notebooks
  • Le Samsung 840 Pro reste plus rapide, Pas de kit 3,5 pouces pour ordinateurs fixes, 3 ans de garantie contre 5 ans pour certains modèles concurrents
  • Le Crucial M500 n'est pas le plus rapide des SSD, mais il n'arrive pas loin derrière les leaders. À l'instar de son prédécesseur, le M4, il mise sur son rapport capacité / performances / prix. On regrette toutefois que sa garantie ne dure que 3 ans, quand...
