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.

  • Performances globales excellentes, Prix mesuré
  • Prix pour du TLC, Quid de la TLC, Pas de Bundle
  • Avec son 840 EVO, Samsung démontre encore une fois tout son savoir faire en matière de SSD. Ce dernier est toujours très performant en lecture et avec la fonction Turbpo Write il l'est également en écriture, même si cela se fait au détriment des 27 Go ...

  • 504 Mo/s mesurés en lecture de gros fichiers, 492 Mo/s en écriture de gros fichiers, Très léger, parfait pour un notebook, Logiciel Samsung Magician complet, pratique et intuitif
  • Mémoire de type TLC, en théorie 3 fois moins endurante que la MLC
  • Le 840 Evo en version 250 Go est un cran plus rapide en écriture que le 120 Go. Il se bat même au coude-à-coude avec les plus rapides de ce comparatif. Néanmoins, sa mémoire TLC — dont la durée de vie est plus courte — et sa garantie de 3 ans ne lui perme...

  • 506 Mo/s mesurés en lecture de gros fichiers, 416 Mo/s en écriture de gros fichiers, Très léger, parfait pour un notebook, Logiciel Samsung Magician complet, pratique et intuitif
  • Mémoire de type TLC, en théorie 3 fois moins endurante que la MLC, Le débit en écriture tombe à 260 Mo/s avec des très gros fichiers (plus de 3 Go)
  • Même s'il n'est pas le plus performant des SSD de ce comparatif, le 840 Evo 120 Go s'en sort bien. Il est rapide et léger. Nous apprécions également sont rapport capacité / prix intéressant. Néanmoins, il a le défaut d'être équipé de mémoire TLC — durée d...

  • Le TurboWrite, Les performances, surtout en lecture, Le logiciel Samsung Magician
  • Ça reste de la TLC.., ... avec une concurrence efficace en MLC au même prix
  • De la TLC gravée en 19 nm, des puces de plus grande capacité, un contrôleur plus rapide, et des ajustements logiciels bien trouvés... Pour sûr, Samsung a bien travaillé sur ses SSD de la série 840 EVO pour nous convaincre. Et c'est le cas, car à l'usage, ...

  • Avec le 840 EVO 1 To, Samsung propose un modèle qui rivalise avec les disques durs traditionnels en termes de capacité de stockage et se révèle quatre fois plus rapide. En outre, le coût au Go est très attractif. Seul point faible, la durée de vie de la m...
