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
The 860 EVO carries on the long-standing tradition of "for a few bucks more you can get an EVO". Samsung's 860 EVO is a worthy successor to their 850 EVO. It outperforms its predecessor and at the same time delivers better consistency.This is one hell of...
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...

Significant power savings, Five-year warranty, Very fast
High price
Samsung retains its crown as the maker of the best mainstream, TLC-based SATA SSD on the market. However, the competition is now greater than in the 850 Evo's heyday, and for most people, the premium demanded by the 860 Evo simply won't be worth it, as th...

Now that the prices of SSDs are starting to fall again, the competition is starting to take off again. Especially the new models from Crucial and Samsung bring some life back to the business, which was badly needed in this market. Last year there were few...

Exceptionally fast, Long lifespan, Reasonable price
Modest sequential write speed increase
Finally, we have a worthy alternative to the 850 Evo, and it's the very SSD intended to replace it. Whether you're planning a new PC build or switching from solely mechanical storage for the first time, there's no contest: the Samsung 860 Evo is the be...

The Samsung 860 Evo and 860 Pro are among the fastest sata-ssd's of today. Whether by accident or not, any record that the Crucial MX500 series set last weekend, was broken again by the 860 Pro. While the differences in most tests remain very limited, the...
