Which one is more reliable and faster. This or the M4?
Thanks

Looking at one of these for my next SSD. I'd also like to know the answer to Persian's q...i have 2 128gb M4s and have no complaints other that they run a bit hot.

Samsung is too new to have any good reliability data. However, all indications are that it's an excellent drive.
M4 vs. 830 - can't go wrong with either one. Any performance differences are purely academic. |

no longer includes batman arkham city?

I love the 830, it was perfect on my laptop, but 64gb didnt cut it and 128gb was a 50 dollar diff to get compared to the m4

Got one a week ago for my m17x-r3... Great drive good price!
Might not say it on B&H, but it comes with a copy of Batman Arkam Asylum - not steam compatible key though

Got this drive for $359 from B&H. Ended up returning anyway as I still think these SSDs are overpriced (Bought the OCZ agility 120gb from tigerdirect for $102 AR yesterday). Hopefully, I will upgrade to 512 GB SSD after I upgrade my Laptop end of this year (Windows 8 and Ivy bridge) :-)
As far the drive, it absolutely Amazing. Faster, not even a hitch while reinstalling windows and Linux (under VM). Reviews are great wrt reliability. B&H is super good in customer service, i returned after 2 weeks and NO questions asked.

If you have the luxury of having 2 hard drive bays, and you are running an SSD and a HDD as secondary, I found a good guide http://www.overclock.net/t/115665...-ssds-hdds
The included util that comes with the Samsung drive does some of the steps but there are other optimization that can be done... Loving the SSD so far...
