  • Qualche settimana fa avevamo provato il Samsung 840 nella versione con capacità di 120 GB, le prestazioni si erano rivelate ottime in lettura e con file di ridotte dimensioni, ma non eravamo rimasti completamente soddisfatti a causa dei risultati limitat...

  • L'unità in test, Samsung 840 Pro da 512GB, ha messo in campo tutto il potenziale che Samsung può esprimere nel campo degli SSD. L'unità 830 ci aveva già stupito per il proprio comportamento in termini di prestazioni, tanto da renderci scettici sull'esigen...

  • Anche se lo abbiamo avuto a disposizione per un periodo limitato di tempo, il Samsung 840 Pro ci ha fatto una gran bella impressione . È molto veloce, in cima alla maggioranza dei nostri test. Inoltre, raggiunge le prestazioni più alte usando meno energia...

  • Abstract:  Um herauszufinden, wie lange SSD im Härtefall wirklich durchhalten, haben die Kollegen von Techreport.com insgesamt sechs Laufwerke einem 18 Monate langen Test unterzogen. Dabei wollten sie herausfinden, ob die Flash-Speicher die Angaben der Hersteller zu...

  • Man kann es kurz und schmerzlos machen. Nur weil die Samsung SSD 840 Pro mit 256 GB weniger Speicherplatz an sich und somit auch weniger Cache besitzt, ist sie keinen Falls im Nachteil. Ganz im Gegenteil kann sich das Laufwerk gegen viele der anderen von...

  • Abstract:  Die Solid State Drive (SSD) gehört inzwischen zum PC-Alltag. Wäre nicht der vergleichsweise hohe Gigabyte-Preis und der meist zu knappe Speicherplatz, hätte die Flashspeicher-Festplatte längst die ferromagnetischen Scheibendreher vom Markt gefegt. Doch di...

  • Hohe Datenrate, Geringe Zugriffszeiten, Günstiger Preis, 5 Jahre Garantie, Softwarepacket
  • Software nur in Englisch und Koreanisch, 3,5 Zoll Einbaurahmen nur in der teureren UpgradeVersion
  • Da die Samsung 840 Pro Serie nun für deutlich unter einem Euro pro GB zu haben ist, fällt es nun leichter, Geld für ein Modell mit hoher Kapazität auszugeben. Lagen die Preise im letzten Quartal 2012 noch über dieser Preisgrenze, bekommt man aktuell die ...
