  • A l’issue de ces tests, le Samsung SSD 840 est la nouvelle référence que ce soit pour un desktop où les performances priment, ou un portable où la consommation n’est pas à négliger. C’est ce dernier point qui pénalise l’OCZ Vector un rien moins perform...

  • Mémoire MLC, gage d'endurance comparée à la TLC, 514 Mo/s mesurés en lecture de gros fichiers, 386 Mo/s en écriture de gros fichiers, Interface Sata III (6 Gbps), Très léger: 51 grammes! Parfait pour un notebook, Consommation d'énergie: 3 W, Garantie d
  • Son rapport Prix / Go est élevé, Pas d'algorithme de compression qui économiserait pourtant les cellules flash
  • L'avis pour les pros Sa mémoire MLC est donnée pour un minimum de 3000 cycles ; il a aussi pour lui une garantie de 5 ans. Même si on ne le conseille pas pour un serveur, qui devrait faire préférer un SSD en SLC, le 840 Pro est un des SSD encore aborda...

  • Dans la famille des SSD qui dépotent, je demande le 840 Pro ! Plus sérieusement, Samsung ne fait pas les choses à moitié avec son nouveau SSD haut-de-gamme. Il établit tout simplement de nouveaux records de vitesse dans la plupart des tests théoriques, et...

  • Per chi cerca il massimo in quanto a prestazioni e affidabilità, le SSD 840 Pro sono il meglio in commercio. Il prezzo è accettabile e se si vuole spendere qualcosa di meno senza troppe rinunce potete optare per la versione 840 series....

  • Abstract:  Gli appassionati "smanettoni&quot, ma anche chi non è particolarmente esperto, sanno ormai molto bene che l'aggiornamento del proprio sistema sostituendo il disco tradizionale con un SSD permette di ottenere miglioramenti prestazionali notevoli. Lo storage primario è quasi costantemente chiamato ad operare letture e scritture, e non certo solo per l'avvio e lo spegnimento, motivo per cui un SSD può dare nuova linfa a sistemi anche con qualche anno sulle spalle....

  • Il Samsung 840 Pro 256GB è uno dei pochi SSD che è stato in grado di impressionarci sotto tutti i punti di vista. Innanzitutto ci ha colpito la sua notevole eleganza, aspetto non così scontato per un SSD, vista la generale tendenza a realizzare "anon...
