  • Write speed drops considerably when SLC cache is full, Lower endurance than many TLC NAND-based SSDs
  • In the past, consumers had to choose between the superior performance of SSDs and the high capacity of hard drives. With Samsung's new 870 QVO SSD, they can now get the best of both worlds. Designed and built entirely in-house, this new SATA SSD is powere...

  • It's a bit awkward writing this report and I have to admit that it took longer than expected because, well, we have seen so much good come from Samsung and they are such a large part of the world being where it is today because of the advance of flash mem...

  • Excellent price-to-performance ratio for a SATA-based SSD, Very fast 4K read and write speeds, Feature-rich Magician management software, 8TB version coming soon,
  • Warranty is only three years, QLC's modest durability ratings make it less suited to heavy write duty
  • If you're looking for one of the best 2.5-inch SATA SSDs in terms of value and performance for the money, search no further than Samsung's SSD 870 QVO, a stellar followup to its first QLC-based outing...

  • Great everyday performance, Up to a stupendous 8TB of capacity
  • 150MBps writing after running out of SLC cache
  • The Samsung 870 QVO's capacity is great, as is its everyday performance. You'll likely be perfectly happy with the drive if you install it in your laptop or PC as the main drive. But 8TB? Come on now. That's pretty sweet. Just be aware of the severe dropo...

  • SATA SSDs aren't nearly as interesting as they used to be, but they are ideally suited to everyday computing applications such as multi-tasking, web browsing and PC booting. The Samsung 870 QVO is certainly a minor improvement of the 860 QVO series that w...

  • You know, I am struggling a bit on the new 870 QVO series. NAND based storage these days is all about NVMe based solution, which dropped in price tremendously. So for SATA3 based storage based on QLC to make real sense, it'll need to be cheap. The new 870...
