I think the Wiki is misleading. Performance wise, if someone is going from a HDD to an SSD, there will be a huge jump. It's like going from a Ford Taurus to a Lamborghini Aventador. The 840 Pro...

Would this drive be fine as a system drive of an HTPC? All my WMC recordings go to a secondary drive but would it still tax a SSD?

The problem you guys aren't realizing with the TLC vs MLC (840 vs 840 Pro) is that it doesn't take into account the cost/size of the drive. For example, due to wear leveling and write...

This is great as a media center system drive, as you describe the use.

This thing is fast enough for any "high end" machine made by Alienware.

Why is it, that in every Samsung 840 thread, a bunch of people come out and start trashing TLC. Does anybody have any real data that proves that TLC has significantly shorter real life than MLC? ...

That was my cost target too and I got one for $120 out of pocket cost a few weeks ago. Thanks to the Amazon GC I got with 20% off from deals at Meijer and Bestbuy. :woot:

Not a bad deal at all considering I purchased my 2x 64GB Sammy 830 SSD's for $100 a pop a little over a year ago. Might be time to sell those and pick up one of these.

A lot of SSD testing done by review sites involves short-term usage scenarios. This is similar to the way Consumer Reports tests appliances like refrigerators. It isn't uncommon for people to buy the...

I do not understant what the Wiki is saying. How does it compare to my Agility 3? I keep mine for 10 mths, a tate b4 the one year is up and sell it on ebay and get another refurbished one.

Does OS write often to SSD? It is the only slow thing here. If you use this for desktop, power doesnt matter. I usually keep my computer for 2 yrs, so life usage does not matter

Thanks! +reps Seems easy enough! I guess I would need to reformat afterwards to ensure my O/S is installed on the drive as well.

If I have an extra computer, would I be able to transfer the HD to it and then load it onto the SSD without having to buy a transfer kit? edit: I'm also dual booting windows 7/8. I have no use for...

Is it better to raid 2x250gb ssd or just single ssd of 500GB for gaming?

I definitely agree with you, a lot of people seem to be bashing this drive because of TLC, but really, if you are a pretty average computer user, TLC will last you a good 7 years or so. Personally, I...

No thank you. I only do pro Decent price, but nand on this could be better. Best for average consumer

Great deal :)
Post #57813748 added 02-25-2013 10:04 AM by sin in Archived Deals
It will still run cooler than a tradition HDD. Also, for the average user who writes/erases 10gigs a day, it will still last you about 7 years. Cite:...
Post #57813700 added 02-25-2013 6:36 AM by wikipost in Archived Deals
This is the only SSD in the market to use TLC NAND. TLC (triple layer) uses more power than the MLC NAND used in other consumer SSDs. It also has the lowest lifespan. Anandtech estimates that the...

If you have a desktop most likely you have a 3.5" and laptops are usually 99% of the time 2.5". It's an easy process as long as you have a transfer cable then its just transferring files from one to...

I don't understand why you would need both the "kit" (tray) AND the cable? I just bought the one with the kit for $150 at the egg. Used the "tray" to turn it into a 3.5" but did not need the transfer...

we don't need a transfer cable to clone do we?
Post #57812068 added 02-25-2013 9:01 AM by tennis8363 in Archived Deals
I need a transfer cable only, not the kit -looks like I used the incorrect wording. Only have a laptop and no external drives to transfer pics, etc.

How different 840 and 840PRO are? I am photographer who do not play any games on PC, could you recommend which one good for me? Thanks.

If this drive, fails after 7 years of use because of TLC wear, let me know. I'd like to take a look at it.

Post #57838662 added 02-26-2013 9:40 AM by superstition in Archived Deals
Ad hominem fallacy. TLC is inferior to MLC in both power usage and lifespan. Yes, anyone who bothers to figure out what TLC and MLC are. Google it. Review sites don't always do a...
Post #57839054 added 02-26-2013 9:53 AM by superstition in Archived Deals
TLC NAND is different than the MLC used in every other consumer SSD. It has higher power usage and lower endurance. HardOCP recommends the 256 model, but I don't see why, since an MLC drive...

Go for the Pro if you can afford it. It has better performance and higher reliability. It would be around $200 (vs $140 for this one).

This is a cheap part, why would you put it in Aurora desktop?!?! At best, this deserves to go into $300-400 Dell laptop or desktop, but not into high-end machine....
Post #57815632 added 02-25-2013 11:04 AM by superstition in Archived Deals
The main competition for this in the market is a budget MLC SSD. People compare this with SLC drives, too. Comparisons with SLC and HDD are generally less useful. There are already budget MLC...

Beware of this SSD. I've already gone through 2 already due to random file corruption that would BSOD with STOP 7B message on a Windows 7 machine. Cloned the original drive to an M4 and no more...

With all the Samsung SSD deals lately, it finally seems as if SSD price/gb is starting to come down once again. It's about time. They've been using TLC instead of MLC NAND without lowering the price....

Weired. I guess there are two links. The one I looked at was sold by buy.com. I know Adorma doesn't tax in CA.
