The Samsung 960 EVO is a stunning little drive. I'm still astounded by the fact Samsung can jam a whole terabyte of storage into just two chips on a single-sided PCB, but it's not just the scale of the drive which impresses me. The 960 EVO is two-thirds t...

Good case airflow is needed
Hot on the heels of the 960 PRO, the 960 EVO is another super-quick M.2 drive from Samsung.Behind the design of the 960 EVO we once again see the new Polaris Controller making an appearance, along with Samsung's V-NAND MLC flash memory. In reality the EVO...
More expensive than MLC NVMe competitor, Low performance, When will this ship?, Power sucking driver, Low endurance
Everyone has done something that they regretted as soon as they took the action. Samsung may feel that way about the 960 EVO 250GB because it took the low-capacity model down one step too far. Using lower density flash should have helped, but the final re...

Performance, Intelligent TurboWrite
Pricey, Only a threeyear warranty
With two very fast M.2 NVMe drives in the high-end/enthusiast market segment in the shape of the SSD960 PRO and its predecessor the SSD950 PRO, Samsung has now, it seems, turned their attention on the mainstream market with the launch of the TLC V-NAND eq...

Incredible performance for a TLC NAND SSD, High endurance for TLC NAND SSD, Supports latest interface and NVMe protocol, Attractively priced, Includes drive management and data migration tools
Only comes in M.2 form factor, Performance dips once TurboWrite cache is exhausted
SSDs with TLC NAND have traditionally been significantly slower than SSDs with MLC NAND, and we were not expecting this to change with the SSD 960 Evo. And frankly, we were quite surprised by Samsung's claimed performance figures. Can a TLC NAND SSD be so...
