Now that SSDs have been out for a few years, manufacturers have managed to saturate the SATA 6 GB/s interface with as much speed as it's capable of. With that in mind, attention has been turned to greater longevity, reliability, and energy efficiency. With the new 850 EVO series SSDs, Samsung aims to do just that by utilizing their new proprietary MGX controller and 3D V-NANA flash memory. So, let's take the Samsung 850 EVO 500 GB SSD for a spin and see what Samsung has in store.

Have 2 of the 500g Samsung 850 EVOs in my rig below. They are FAST. No need or desire for raid0 etc. Great and thorough review!
 
Good review LV! I just installed one of these a few days ago and it is fantastic so far, the bundled software is nice and handled the data migration well.
