  • Highest capacity M.2 on the market
  • Record setting sequential performance
  • The best Gaming Disk Capture so far
  • The 950 Pro delivers class leading performance at a good price point
  • Thermal envelope and low power consumption. Advanced software features seal the deal but we're still waiting to see Rapid Mode for this product.
  • Doubling capacity and increasing data integrity are still good use cases for RAID in the home.

The editors didn't like

  • 256GB and 512GB offer different speeds
  • Slow Writes
  • Random write performance slower than expected
  • No 1TB model as of yet
  • Can run hot under heavy workloads
  • Pricey
  • Heat Buildup
  • Performance not really noticeable in most enthusiast workloads
  • No IOPs improvement
  • Increased CPU utilization
  • Increased performance of drive failure
  • Fell behind its predecessor and the SM951 in a few benchmarks
  • Price premium for early adopters
  • The 950 Pro needs a 1TB model to satisfy power users and a 2TB model for gamers with large Steam / Origin libraries. Magician Software with Windows 10 support is lacking at this time but Samsung is working on it.
  • Increasing performance through RAID 0 no longer has the same shine it once had. NVMe SSDs are fast enough to satisfy the most demanding user needs. We've hit a point where RAID 0 run off of a chipset gives diminishing returns.
  • Capacity tops out at 512GB (for now)
  • Intel SSD 750 Series still faster on some tests
  • Shorter warranty than on Samsung's SSD 850 Pro
  • Requires Samsung driver for full write performance
  • No Power Loss Protection
  • Wasn't Fastest Across The Board
  • Mediocre performance in standard desktop activities
  • Double the cost per GB of fast SATA drives
  • Nothing worth mentioning.
  • NVMe is not widely available… yet.
  • Still very expensive
  • Requires M.2 slot (and NVMe BIOS for booting)
  • Needs Z170 to shine
  • Dubble Bubble
  • Requires M.2 slot (and NVMe BIOS for booting
  • Expect to pay a premium for the extreme performance. Compatibility could be an issue as it requires an M.2 PCIe 3.0 x4 interface.
  • Flameout
  • Can throttle at times
  • Needs M.2 NVMe support to use as a boot drive
  • Where's the 1TB model?

  • Abstract:  컴퓨터에서 보조저장장치가 가장 느리다는 이야기는 아직은 유요하죠. HDD 디스크를 쓰는 컴퓨터에서는 그러합니다. 삼성 950 PRO 512GB M.2 NVMe를 쓰면 그런데 속도를 빠르게 만들 수 있습니다. 속도 체감 성능에서 확실히 그전과 다르네요. SSD는 많이 써봐서 속도가 비슷비슷하다는 느낌도 가끔 받기도 하는데요. 물론 미묘하게 차이가 있는 정도 인데요. 읽기 성능이 몇배나 빠른 장치를 써보니 확실히 빠르네요. 삼성 950 PRO 512GB M...

  • Abstract:  3차원 NAND 적층 기술인 2세대 V-NAND 32-Layer 128Gbit NAND FLASH가 적용된 M.2 타입의 삼성 SSD 950 PRO를 큰 맘먹고 직접 구매 벤치마크를 해보았습니다.이전 M.2 SSD 대부분 SATA 또는 PCIe 대역폭을 이용한 M.2 였습니다. 특히 일반 SSD 보다는 작고 M.2의 최대 속도를 한층 끌어올렸다는점이 처음 나왔을때 참 화재였는데요. 그러나 작년 11월 삼성이 SM951에서 NVMe (Non-Volati...

  • Abstract:  Intel 100 Series Motherboard의 출현은 여러가지 의미에서 사용자들에게 새로운 환경을 제공한다고 볼 수 있습니다. 다양한 이유가 존재하겠지만 그 중 하나는 PCIe 대역폭을 이용하여 M.2의 최대 속도를 한층 더 끌어올렸다는 점입니다. 또 하나의 이슈는 "NVM(Non-Volatilie Memory) Express"라는 차세대 인터페이스의 등장으로 기존에 활용되었던 AHCI 인터페이스와는 다른 형태의 인터페이스를 제공하면서 앞으로...
