What is Mlc and tlc?
Edit : I see what you mean. Samsung is TLC and Crucial M4 is mLC which is better. But I have both drives. I don't know why samsung is faster.

This isn't the 840 Pro drive. I'm glad I jumped on the Crucial M4 256 GB deal for the same price.
It's better to spend less money when you don't need more than 250 GB.
