  • Expensive
  • The biggest downside of the 860 Evo 500GB is its high pricetag which will definitely push some people away because there are cheaper alternatives out there that perform just as good as the 860 Evo. Its steep pricing makes it difficult to recom

  • Slower write speeds,  
  • Traditional hard drives won't disappear anytime soon, but unless you need heaps of storage space for as little money as possible, you should buy an SSD instead. If you're a regular computer user, an affordable SATA SSD such as the Samsung 860 Evo is a sen...

  • The 860 EVO 1 TB gave us the solid mainstream performance we've come to expect out of Samsung's EVO line. We distill the overall performance rating using an older SATA SSD as a baseline. To compare each drive, we then take the geometric mean of a basket...

  • 3-Bit MLC NAND offers less impressive sequential performance
  • Our performance rating compares how effective the 1TB Samsung SSD 860 EVO performed in benchmark operations against competing SATA-based solid state drive storage solutions. For reference, Samsung specifications suggest 550 MB/s maximum reads and 520 MB/s...

  • Excellent performance on a par with MLC drives, Very affordable, Very fast with small queued writes,
  • Less long-lived than the MLC (2-bit) SSDs
  • The Samsung 860 EVO delivers performance every bit as good as its MLC rivals. It's a worthy competitor for the WD Blue 3D and Sandisk 3D, two other TLC drives that are undoing TLCs weak reputation...

  • The Samsung EVO series has been the go to SSD for price versus performance aficionados for many years now and it looks like that won't be changing anytime soon. We topped the drives rated 550 MB/s sequential read and 520 MB/s sequential write speeds and c...

  • The EVO 860 is Samsung's latest family of end-user consumer SATA SSDs, quoting a minor improvement in performance (550MB/s read and 520MB/s write) and better endurance while featuring a new controller and intelligent TurboWrite technology. The 860 EVO com...

  • Samsung's update to their TLC SATA SSD is not quite as impressive as the improvements the MLC-based 860 PRO showed, but the Samsung 860 EVO's gains are still enough to put Samsung back on top in that product segment. The competition had caught up to the 8...

  • Excellent performance on a par with MLC drives, Very affordable, Very fast with small queued writes
  • Less long-lived than the MLC (2-bit) SSDs
  • The 860 EVO is the fastest TLC SSD we've tested, albeit by a gnat's eyebrow. But a win is a win, and given the same price, we recommend it over the WD Blue 3D and Sandisk Ultra 3D. That said, you'll be more than happy with any of the three, so if you find...
