SSD pricing is continuing to drop and the introduction of 4-bit MLC NAND Flash will help that trend continue for years to come. The 860 QVO SSD series is the first client drive from Samsung to use 4-bit MLC and the MSRP of these drives is just $0.15 per G...

Decent endurance for a QLC SSD, Build quality, AES 256-bit encryption with Windows BitLocker support,
High introductory MSRP, Write performance after SLC cache exhausts, Three-year warranty
If you are in the market for a new SATA based SSD, the Samsung 860 QVO delivers acceptable performance, high capacity, and enough endurance to satisfy most users. It even includes AES 256-bit encryption with Windows BitLocker support. The only thing that'...
It is good to see the first QLC SSDs on the market. QLC, my friends, has been introduced to become the most price competitive NAND type in the industry, read my words QLC (and more layered 3D NAND) is the final nail to the coffin of the HDD. I say fantast...
Equipped with 4-bit MLC V-NAND technology, Available in 1TB, 2TB and 4TB capacities, Good sequential read and write speeds under most conditions, Good random write performance, Features Intelligent TurboWrite technology, Large DRAM cache, Supports TRIM an

The bards will sing no lionizing songs of the 860 QVO's struggle through our test suite. We entertain no hopes that it will land anywhere near the 860 EVO in our final reckoning. We distill the overall performance rating using an older SATA SSD as a base...

The release of the Samsung 860 QVO SATA 3 SSD is Samsung's first release of a consumer based 4-bit mlc SSD. The storage industry had some time ago recognized that consumer demand was such that, they needed to find a ‘sweet spot' in getting SSDs into the h...
Abstract: Samsung's 860 QVO SSD is an excellent everyday performer and an outstanding bargain in its 2TB and 4TB flavors. It's also the second quad-level cell (4-bit) SSD to pass our portals, the other being Intel's SSD 660P. The reason I mention this competitive d...

Overall performance, Good endurance, Strong built in encryption
Only a 3-year warranty
When QLC NAND was first being touted it was all about capacity rather than performance, with the promise of large capacity SSDs at reasonable cost for the consumer market. So then, it was a little surprising to see that the first two consumer drives out o...
