Higher power consumption than other current-generation SSDs
Merely modest small-file performance
More overprovisioning may lead to longer drive life

Not as fast as Samsung's 840 Pro

And it's a great first effort with some unique features

Mémoire MLC offrant 3000 cycles d'écriture, Débits corrects en lecture
Over-provisionning sans effet, Lourd (77 g), le double d'un Sandisk Ultra Plus, Garantie 3 ans seulement, Prix déconnecté de la réalité
Seagate ne réussit pas vraiment son entrée sur le marché du SSD grand public. Les débits de ce 600 SSD 480 Go sont corrects, mais n'éblouissent pas et restent loin de la tête de peloton de notre comparatif. Vendu près de 100 euros de plus qu'un Crucial M5...
