Abstract: Samsung makes some scorching hot hardware, but not in the Galaxy Note 7 wayDо you recall when the PC transitioned from IDE to SATA? Then most motherboards came with both ports, and I recall looking at IDE and wondering why they still existed.SATA...
Abstract: A year later, the 950 Pro range still reigns supreme, but Samsung hasn't rested on its laurels – it's just announced a new line of high-performance NVMe M.2 SSDs – the 960 Pro and 960 Evo, boasting sequential read speeds that are up to 1,000MB/sec faster...

In setting their lofty goals for the drive, the 2TB Samsung 960 Pro does not quite live up to every performance specification. But against any other standard it is a very fast drive. It increases performance over its predecessor across the board. It sets...

Fastest consumer SSD available, Significantly speedier than previous-generation SSD 950 Pro, Available in capacities up to 2TB,
Expensive, Shorter warranty than Samsung's premium SATA drives
Samsung's new NVMe SSD outruns the pack, with sequential speeds up to 3,500MB per second and capacities to 2TB. But a lack of optimized drivers at launch made measuring its true potential difficult, and with similar-spec, lower-cost drives promised soon...
Going into this review, I pretty much expected the Samsung 960 PRO to shatter every consumer SSD record out there and with testing out of the way, I can say that it didn't disappoint. Although these are early review samples without even a complete driver...

Classleading M.2 NVMe performance. Nice capacity range. Excellent endurance ratings. Only 80mm long (even the 2TB model). Fiveyear warranty.
In our treasured 24 hours with the 960 Pro, we are struggling to come up with a con. While it is competitively priced, it can't hurt to ask for a discount ;).

The 960 Pro broke a slew of our storage testing records, so we have little doubt it will take first place in our performance rankings. Drumroll, please... First place, and how! It's a meaty margin of victory. Intel's 750 Series drive is forced to relinqu...

The fastest consumer SSD, A large 2TB capacity option, Singlesided design for increased compatibility
Prosumer pricing, No eDrive support, Missing features (NVMe Driver 2.0 And Magician)
The best just got better, but Samsung priced the 960 Pro out of reach for many users. We get a little excited when Ferrari releases a new model with more power and higher efficiency, but not enough to go into debt to make it personal. If you run profe...
