The Samsung 850 Pro is the highest performing SATA 6Gb/s SSD we have reviewed to date. Packed with new innovative 3D V-NAND, full encryption support, and backed by an industry leading 10 year warranty, it is definitely worth a look!...
Back when the Samsung 840 PRO was released in 2012, I really didn't really think Samsung would release another SATA based drive as its successor. At the time, the Samsung 840 PRO was already clearly hitting the limits of the SATA interface, and there wasn...

Samsung says the 850 Pro is the fastest, most reliable SATA SSD available and we'll buy that line until we test the SanDisk Extreme Pro or experience a failure.
It certainly isn't the best value considering its premium over the Extreme Pro and availability of drives like the Crucial MX100. RAPID isn't as useful as you may think.
Before we weigh in with our final verdict, we'll bust out a few of our famous value scatter plots. The best solutions will gravitate toward the upper left corner of the plot, which signifies high performance and low prices. Click the buttons below the pl...
Outstanding performance, Excellent fragmentation resiliency, 10 Year Warranty (yeah, I said it)
Hard to come up with one, but I'd really like to see this V-NAND doing the TLC/SLC trick that the EVO series does. Samsung tells me this is absolutely doable, which likely makes this con into a pro, Intro price of smaller capacity units is a bit on the hi

Expensive enthusiast product
Our first rating is performance, which compares how effective the Samsung SSD 850 PRO performs in benchmark operations against competing SATA-based solid state drive storage solutions. For reference, Samsung specifications suggest 550 MB/s maximum reads...

Samsung has stepped well in front of their competition by introducing the newest 850 Pro SSD with their newest 3D V-NAND architecture. Unbelivable endurance, greater performance, higher density and a 10 year warranty make this an easy SSD purchase decisi...
