Review: Samsung SSD 860 Evo 1 TB SATA3 - The best consumer 1TB SATA SSD - Great for Playstation 4 as well - Samsung SSD 860 Evo 1TB SATA3 When it comes to SATA3 SSD’s, there were only 2 brands for me which I looked at – Samsung and Crucial. This time I opted for this Samsung SSD 860 Evo 1 TB SATA3 to replace a standard HDD as a secondary drive in my laptop – there was already a Nvme SSD as a primary drive for system, etc, but I was fed up with speeds of traditional HDDs. Installation was super easy – I simply replaced a HDD with SSD. Nothing complicated at all – just swap and connect. After powering on, my computer detected SSD without any issues and the only thing required was to format it to to desired format. All done within 30 minutes. Did the swap change anything? Abuslutely yes. My games load several times faster, searching my photo collection is superfast as well as access to my music library. Video editing, encoding and audio editing are absolutely hassle-free. SSD does not also generate any noise and generates less heat, especially with normal usage. I tested my Samsung 860 Evo with AS SSD and CrystalDiskMark – results are great, as expected (disk is half full/half empty) - please see the photos attached. A few details about Samsung 860 Evo 1TB SATA3 (different models may have different specs): - NAND: Samsung V-NAND TLC (aka. 3Bit MLC) - Controller: Samsung MJX Controller - Cache: 1GB LPDDR4 - 5 years warranty or 600TBW - SATA3 Would I buy it again? Absolutely yes. I cannot imagine going back to HDDs, especially not for tasks I use it for. I used Samsung SSD 840 Pro previously, so I knew what to expect from Samsung SSDs (although I could not justify spending extra for Pro series this time). I understand that the price of this disk has not changed for years nearly at all, but the reason for is that it is probably the best SATA3 SSD, which can be purchased. It is also a great disk for PS4/PS4 Pro, although neither Xbox One nor Playstation 4 make a full use of SSD technology. Loading times are still better though, sometimes cut by half. Tested with PS4 Pro out of curiosity. 10/10 score and full recommendation. Warning: Please do not make a mistake and do not buy Samsung QVO SSDs unless you are absolutely sure you want QVO series for some, unknown to me reason. They can be slightly cheaper (but sometimes can even be slightly more expensive), but their performance and reliability due to use of QLC NAND in comparison to Evo and Evo Plus (TLC NAND) is a lot worse. They are still good SSDs in comparison to other brands QLC SSDs but in my opinion there is no reason to buy them as Evo SSDs are a lot better and for similar price.
Review: Very impressive performance - Was a little dubious before purchasing, as there is usually too much hype surrounding these types of disks. HOWEVER, cast away any doubt you may have !! Adding one of these units is like upgrading from a nissan micra to a ferrari !! I was about ready to throw my PC in the bin, as the original platter based HDD were getting slower and slower with the frquent windows 10 update ( no issues with Windows 7 ... ) . Given that my machine has an 8 core AMD Black edtion CPU with 32GB ram, this was clearly annoying. It got to the point where it take several minutes to bring up the login screen. Once logged in, the disk drives were going flat out and unresponsive for at least 10 minutes ( go and make a cup tea literally and another one to follow) . Apps were then slow to respond. Being a developer, many of the development tools were taking several minutes just to OPEN.... Thought I would replace the Windows drive with one of these SSD from Samsung, as a last ditched desperate measure. UNBELIEVABLY IMPRESSIVE !! The machine now responds faster than I can. Whole thing boots up in under 2 minutes ( BIOS is the slow aspect now, as that takes over a minute) . Once logged in, the machine responds instantly , certainly faster than I can. The apps now open up instantly. The developer apps that used to take several minutes, now open in under 3 seconds and are responsive immefiately. Wooo Hoo . NOTE - You only need to replace the windows Boot drive for the performance gain. All my apps still run on a separate platter based HDD. Just proves that it was the OS that was causing the bottle neck ( that is windows 10 for you ) As a measure of metrics, copying a very large file ( 7.5GB ) from a hard disk drive to the SSD achieved sustained transfer speeds over 200MB/s , with a total transfer time just under 50 seconds. However, on repeated copies of the same file, the transfer speeds demonstrated significant improvement, which would suggest a level of read buffer/caching implementation. The second copy of the same file took 20 seconds. I am definitely buying a few more of these.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Much easier to install than I thought
*by H***C on 26 December 2018*

I have a 7 year old Dell XPS 8300 Desktop PC with a 1TB HDD which I wanted to breath new life into by installing an SSD to improve boot, file and program load times. I wanted to make the SSD the system/boot disk and relegate the old HDD to secondary large volume storage. I needed a 2.5" to 3.5" mounting frame to allow me to install the new 2.5" SSD in a 3.5" bay inside the PC. There are so many choices of adapter available on Amamzon and I eventually chose this one https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B075FH3KTT/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 You will make your own choice but even though I was only installing a single SSD, this adapter allowed me to add a second in the future if I wanted. I have done a separate review for the adapter, it was a very good choice for me. I was initially a little hesitant beforehand about attempting the install, but it turned out to be much more straightforward than expected. After disconnecting the power from the PC, I screwed the SSD to the base of the adapter then the adapter into the drive bay beneath the existing HDD (all screw holes lined up), then connected the SATA cable (provided with the adapter) to the SSD and motherboard SATA port and then the power cable (there was a spare connected power cable already inside the PC which I used, but there are also two supplied with the adapter) to the SSD. That was it in terms of physical installation. I powered up the PC and then used Samsung's Data Migration software downloaded from their support website (details come with the SSD). Samsung will recommend you clone the SSD by first connecting it externally using a SATA to USB adapter, but although this would be necessary with a Laptop, as long as you have space in the 3.5" bay to install the SSD and the original HDD (true for most desktops) my method will be faster and less fiddly. I made sure that I either deleted or moved to external backup all data (non system) that wouldn't need to be on the new SSD so that my 1TB HDD had a lot less than 500GB (in fact It was less than 100GB as I archived most of my non system data offline). I then ran the Samsung Data Migration tool to clone my HDD to the SSD. The time it takes depends o how much data to clone, but for me it was fast. When the clone finished successfully, I restarted the PC and using F2 key (different for various PC's) immediately at start up let me into the system BIOS. Here you need to reset the boot sequence so that the new SSD is number one for boot. After saving this in the BIOS and exiting, the PC booted up from the new SSD in about 1/10th of the previous time. Once happy everything was stable, I reformatted the old 1TB HDD which is now holding any large volume data that I don't need the high performace of the SSD for. As I said, boot time has reduced significantly and program/file load times are rapid. I'm very happy with my 'new' PC, and hopefully won't need to hit my bank balance for a replacement PC any time soon. Highly recommended upgrade for your PC, and it's also worth checking that you have sufficient RAM as that is just a 10 minute plug and play exercise.
