The 840 EVO was a great drive from Samsung and the 850 EVO just made it even better. The switch to the 3D NAND brings not just added performance improvement but more importantly higher endurance and lower power consumption. Samsung also sweetens the deal...

Our first rating is performance, which compares how effective the Samsung SSD 850 EVO performs in benchmark operations against competing SATA-based solid state drive storage solutions. For reference, Samsung specifications suggest 540 MB/s maximum reads...
As we touched on earlier, the 4TB 850 EVO is proof that the SATA III interface has not been fully exploited as we so often hear. Samsung found a way to take what we feel is the best performing line of SATA III SSDs, their EVO Series, and make it even fa...
Samsung currently dominates the SSD market, and it's clear why that is the case. The 850 EVO offers performance parity with the 850 PRO at nearly half the price, and in fact, is closer to a performance SSD in its performance than it is to a “value” line S...

Excellent performance, Great warranty conditions, Great bundled Magician software
More expensive than competitors, Competition also from cheaper high-end drives, Magician only on Windows
Are you looking for a new SSD? Then yes, you should probably buy the 850 Evo. It's not quite as suited to high-end or business users as the 850 Pro because it lacks that 10-year warranty, but is otherwise largely similar in its performance figures — espec...
Abstract: While manufacturers have announced larger capacity SSDs (2TB and more), for storing a lot of files, a mechanical HDD is still a much more affordable option. This looks set to change in the future though, as SSD production volume increases lead to lower pr...

In the chart above, we see a reduced scale latency test result from PCMark 8. In the test, the 850 EVO comes very close to the total latency of the industry leading SanDisk Extreme PRO 240GB without RAPID Mode enabled. With RAPID enabled, the 850 EVO dro...
