The editors didn't like

  • TLC NAND Durability (Not for Industrial/Enterprise Use)
  • New NAND tech may face some adoption headwinds
  • Mediocre random write performance
  • RAPID mode is Windows only
  • Nothing really to mention.
  • If pushed very hard
  • The writing performance does drop off a bit.
  • Its triple-level-cell (TLC) NAND isn't suitable for all workloads or scenarios
  • The drive carries a 5-year warranty instead of the 10 years the Pro model offers. The Samsung Magician software only works with Windows
  • TLC NAND longevity is rated lower than MLC chips' in other drives
  • Won't help the Jaguars win the Superbowl
  • Nothing to mention.
  • Only threeyear warranty
  • Honestly
  • Not much. RAPID caching occupies up to a gig of system memory (for a good reason)
  • And it's not as affordable as the Crucial M500 but you can't have it all.

  • Relación calidad/precio muy buena, Ciertamente, es un SSD bonito, Grosor de 7 milímetros, incluye adaptador para 9,5
  • NAND TLC, supuestamente “poco” durable, El modelo de 120 GB es más lento en escritura que los demás: 410 en vez de 520 MB/s
  • Ha llegado el momento en el que un SSD es un elemento indispensable en cualquier nuevo ordenador, y esto es gracias a modelos como el Samsung SSD 840 EVO: gran calidad y rendimiento a precios muy competitivos. La unidad probada de 750 GB tiene un precio o...

  • Le Samsung SSD 840 Evo est une belle évolution du SSD 840. Plus performant, surtout en écriture, il ne devrait au final pas coûter plus cher que son prédécesseur. Léger (seulement...

  • Il faut l'avouer, ce SSD SAMSUNG 840 EVO n'est pas le plus joli SSD du marcher (à charge de goût et couleurs propres à chacun). Mais qu'est ce qu'il est efficace. Des taux de transfert très élevés, que ce soit en lecture comme en écriture, des temps d'ac...

  • Performances globales excellentes, Prix mesuré
  • Prix pour du TLC, Pas de Bundle
  • Le 840 EVO dans sa version 750 Go était un excellent SSD, malgré la présence de mémoire TLC. Samsung ayant bien fait les choses, ce dernier offre assez de sécurité pour les données et les performances sont clairement au rendez-vous. La version 1 To que...

  • Avec son 840 Evo, Samsung parvient à concilier utilisation de puces TLC (moins chères à produire) et performances intéressantes. Pour réaliser ce compromis gagnant, le constructeur a introduit une technologie déjà utilisée chez Sandisk et qui nous semble...
