The editors didn't like
Magician software (4.4 beta) not currently compatible with overclocked CPUs
Price
Solitary form factor
Insanely expensive
Outpaced by M.2 drives
Limited appeal outside of laptops
The drive is expensive compared with competing solid-state drives. The Samsung Magician software only works with Windows
Tons of capacity, good performance, great endurance and warranty, SATA is ubiquitous.

Abstract: During the early days of SSDs, we saw rather quick development in capacities. The very first SSDs were undoubtedly small, generally 32GB or 64GB, but there was a need for higher capacities to make SSDs more usable in client environments. MLC NAND caused a...

Abstract: Since the release of the first 1TB SSD, enthusiasts have looked to the next capacity point. It's always easy to demand a bigger, faster or better product. But when push comes to shove, those jumps only happen when there's financial impetus. I can ask for...
Abstract: Good, fast, cheap; pick a maximum of two. While typically considered in the context of services for hire, this Unholy Trinity of aspects that allows consumers to, on a rigid and mutually-exclusive basis, have or eat their cake also makes up the foundation...

Highest capacity SSD currently available, Set a new bar in performance in many of our benchmarks, Samsung pedigree with a 10-year warranty
Much more expensive than a 2TB HDD

We don't think that anyone would expect a performance difference between the Samsung EVO/Pro 1TB SSD and the 2TB SSD, but that's the effect of most of us seeing flash technology increase at such a fast pace.I could be wrong but I believe that, up until th...
Abstract: In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king. This is the unfortunate but temporary state of consumer SSDs that aren't the Intel 750 or Samsung SM951. Both of those drives offer cutting-edge performance, value (relative to peers), and the potential...
