The Samsung 850 EVO is a very decent drive, containing many features that would satisfy many. The drive is one of the fastest of its competition, with the addition of being much more reliable than the competing TLC drives, and comparable to much more expensive MLC drives. What can I say? You have all the benefits of a traditional SSD such as the higher shock resistance, the lower power consumption, the eliminated noise of a hard drive motor, and of course, the speed.
I bought this drive to replace my old spinning drive at 5400 rpm, from my late 2012 Mac mini and the results were outstanding, i must said that before the change i already had 16 of RAM installed and the boot up time was around 2:20 min for everything to be loaded and ready to launch an application; im very happy to report that with this drive that boot up time went down to a very quick 35 seconds, around 4 times faster than before, and if you immediately launch an application this one would come right up or in very little time, it really is a must upgrade for older machines that otherwise would be unusable. worthy for the performance at a good price
This product is one of the best SSD card at its price range and in my opinion offers the most "bang for your buck". It also has a sleek design that if you had a NZXT S340 elite computer case with the option to mount the SSD on the front like i did you appreciate its design a great deal. All in all, great price, great design and over all great performance.
