Samsung 850 EVO 4TB 1500$ Review




V-NAND Technology and The SAMSUNG SSD 850 EVO  Samsung's unique  and innovative V-NAND flash memory architecture is a breakthrough in  overcoming the density limitations, performance and endurance of today's  conventional planar NAND architecture. VNAND is fabricated by stacking  cell layers vertically over one another rather than decreasing the cells  dimensions and trying to fit itself onto a fixed horizontal space  resulting in higher density and better performance utilizing a smaller  footprint. The 850 EVO is the advanced consumer SSD powered by V-NAND  technology that maximizes everyday computing experiences with optimized  performance and enhanced reliability.

Optimized performance for everyday computing experiences
 Powered by Samsung's cutting-edge V-NAND technology, 850 EVO delivers  top-class sequential and random read and write performance to optimize  everyday computing. With improved performance thanks to TurboWrite  technology the 850 EVO provides not only more than a 10% better user  experience than 840 EVO but up to 1.9x faster random write speeds for  the 120/250 GB models as well. In fact, the 850 EVO delivers top class  sequential read (540 MB/s) and write (520 MB/s) performance in all  capacities. This comes with optimized random read and write performance  on all QD and improved QD1 and QD2 random performance for Client PC  usage.

Reinforcement of TurboWrite Technology
In  the early stages of the 840 EVO, Samsung adopted sequential write  performance first. With TurboWrite, write speeds are significantly  accelerated during data transfers by creating a high-performance write  buffer in the SSD. If a consecutive write operation (i.e. no idle time)  exceeds the size of the buffer, the transfer will exit TurboWrite and be  processed at 'After TurboWrite' speeds. Once the buffer is cleared,  TurboWrite performance will resume. However, the buffer size for  TurboWrite is more than sufficient for everyday PC use, and you should  experience accelerated speeds for most workloads.

Advanced data encryption
 The 850 EVO provides the same data encryption feature as the 840 EVO  does. Self-Encrypting Drive (SED) security technology will help keep  data safe at all times. It includes an AES 256-bit hardware-based  encryption engine to ensure that your personal files remain secure.  Being hardware-based, the encryption engine secures your data without  performance degradation that you may experience with a software-based  encryption. Also, 850 EVO is compliant with advanced security management  solutions (TCG Opal and IEEE 1667). Magician will guide 'How to use  security features'. Furthermore, you can erase or initialize data with  the crypto erase service with PSID.

Efficient power management for all PC applications
 Power consumption affects everyone. You actually save of up to 50% more  on power than with the 840 EVO during write operations thanks to V-NAND  consuming half the power of 2D planar NAND.

Plus, whether it's  preserving battery life for longer cordless use or just saving on  costs, power management is important. Device sleep signals the SSD to  enter a low power state which is vital for ultra-books and other battery  powered devices. With 850 EVO's Device Sleep at a highly efficient 2mW  you get longer battery life on your notebook thanks to a controller  optimized for V-NAND. With the 850 EVO you can work and play longer  without having to plug in.

Guaranteed endurance
 The 850 EVO delivers guaranteed endurance and reliability by doubling  the Tera bytes Written(TBW) compared to the previous generation 840 EVO  backed by an industry leading 5 year warranty.

With twice the  endurance of a typical NAND flash SSD, the 850 EVO will keep working as  long as you do. The 850 EVO guarantees a 5 year limited warranty or  75TBW for 120GB, 250GB, 150TBW for 500GB, 1TB and 300TBW for 2TB and  4TB.

Enhanced reliability with improved sustained performance
 With enhanced reliability through improved sustained performance, the  850 EVO assures long-term dependable performance up to 30% longer than  the 840 EVO with minimized performance degradation. This means you can  use it every day when taking care of work or entertaining yourself  knowing it will keep performing even with heavy daily workloads over the  years.

Does it worth it what do you think guys ?
