The editors didn't like

  • 3year warranty is good
  • But beaten by the Intel 520's 5year rating
  • Possible high power consumption figures reported with the 512GB model.
  • Still has weaker 4K random write speeds than other SSDs
  • Slower than other drives when doing random writes
  • Not Available Yet
  • Pricing Uncertain At The Moment
  • Performance during intensive applications not the fastest available
  • A little pricey for the capacity
  • Expensive
  • Random
  • Write performance sometimes shaky
  • Nothing to mention.
  • Due to the thin profile
  • The Samsung 830 series requires padding or a laptop kit
  • Which costs extra
  • To fit in most existing laptop computers
  • Write speeds cannot compete with SandForce SF-2200 based drives
  • Can't match SandForce for 4k random IOPS.
  • Relatively high price
  • Warranty could be longer
  • Needs a SATA 6 Gbps controller to perform best

  • Lang erwartet, nun ist es offiziell da, das neue S-ATA 6 Gbit/s-Laufwerk von Samsung. Mit seiner schicken auberen Aufmachung und den sorgfaltig ausgewahlten und sauber verarbeiteten Materialien ist die neue SSD 830 Serie ein wurdiger Nachfolger der 470er-...

  • Mit der SSD 830 gelingt Samsung die Rückkehr an die Leistungsspitze bei den Consumer-SSDs. Wie gehabt stellen auch die SSDs der 830er-Reihe keine Rekorde in synthetischen Benchmarks auf, konnten aber im rund einwöchigen Praxiseinsatz wärhend des Testzeitr...

  • Abstract:  Spät stellt Samsung heute mit der 830-Serie SSDs vor, die Datenraten bis 6 Gb/s unterstützen. Schon auf dem Papier beeindruckt die Performance, und auch in der Praxis bringt der Neuling SandForce-2-Konkurrenz in Bedrängnis. Doch reicht es für den Sieg?...

  • Das ist er also, Samsungs Einstieg in den Markt der SATA-6 Gb/s-SSDs. Man könnte sich jetzt sicherlich darüber beschweren, dass es dafür doch ein bisschen spät ist, schließlich gibt es entsprechende SSDs schon recht lange von Crucial, Intel und allen H...

  • Abstract:  SSD's zijn zeer gewilde producten. Er worden bijna geen nieuwe zelfbouw-pc's zonder dit supersnelle opslagmedium meer verkocht. Het is dan ook geen wonder dat veel merken met eigen SSD's komen. Het grootste verschil tussen de populairste SSD's van dit ...

  • Abstract:  SSD's zijn de afgelopen weken en maanden extreem in prijs gekelderd. Inmiddels koop je al voor minder dan € 50 een exemplaar met een capaciteit van 64GB. Daarmee zitten de goedkoopste SSD's inmiddels min of meer op het prijsniveau van de goedkoopste ha...

  • Abstract:  De prijzen van SSD’s zijn spectaculair snel aan het zakken naar niveaus die het echt een no-brainer maken om er één in je PC te plaatsen. Een exemplaar van 120 of 128 GB koop je inmiddels vanaf zo’n 110 euro. Voor wat minder dan het dubbele koop je een...
