SATA is ubiquitous.
Vast
SATA is ubiquitous
Samsung says the 850 Pro is the fastest
Most reliable SATA SSD available and we'll buy that line until we test the SanDisk Extreme Pro or experience a failure.
The editors didn't like
Price premium
Somewhat Pricey
No Power Loss Protection
Hard to come up with one
But I'd really like to see this V-NAND doing the TLC/SLC trick that the EVO series does. Samsung tells me this is absolutely doable
Which likely makes this con into a pro
Intro price of smaller capacity units is a bit on the hi
RAPID mode is Windows only
Pricey
Price (For Some)
Much more expensive than a 2TB HDD
Expensive compared to mainstream SSDs that are nearly as speedy
The drive is expensive compared with competing solid-state drives. The Samsung Magician software only works with Windows
Nothing to mention.
Quite expensive for what you're getting
Warranty is overkill
Expensive enthusiast product
Very expensive
Not as fast as PCIe solutions
SATA is limiting
Empty
It certainly isn't the best value considering its premium over the Extreme Pro and availability of drives like the Crucial MX100. RAPID isn't as useful as you may think.
