Samsung 870 EVO 4TB SATA SSD Review - TweakTown Samsung 870 EVO 4TB SATA SSD Review - TweakTown

With all that said, as a general rule of thumb, you can expect the Samsung EVO to last longer than the Samsung QVO, but don’t forget the disclaimer above: A lot of it comes down to circumstance. Samsung Performance It's not just faster random write speeds you get on an NVMe SSD either. Transfer speeds are also dramatically increased, reaching well into the 1GB/s sphere on the WD Blue SN550, more than doubling what's possible on the 870 Evo. In AS SSD's copy benchmark, for instance, the 870 Evo finished its Game test with a score of 473MB/s. The WD Blue SN550, on the other hand, steamed through with 1628MB/s.

Before buying the Samsung 870 Evo 2.5

But for new system builders, this is an SSD to put on the shopping list. I've been using Samsung SSDs for many years and have never once been let down or disappointed in any way. And the 2TB model I have here is good value, too. When the 860 EVO launched you were paying the same for 1TB as you now are for 2TB with the 870 EVO. Fortunately for the Evo, Samsung's Qvo drives don't come in 250GB and 500GB sizes, and in these sizes the 870 Evo still reigns supreme compared to its closest competition. Crucial's budget-oriented MX500 SSD only managed 37MB/s read and 73MB/s write, for example, while WD's Blue 3D NAND drive came in with just 29MB/s read and 57MB/s write. The 4TB Samsung SSD 870 EVO is rated at 2,400TBW with a five-year warranty (whichever happens first, the warranty end or the write limit), which is right within standard expectations for SATA-based TLC drives these days at that capacity. TBW scales with capacity, as you can see in the chart above. The drive also loses slightly to the Samsung 870 QVO in our AS-SSD copy tests, though not by enough to be perceptible to most users in real-world use.

Samsung 870 EVO review: Quality mass storage for the masses Samsung 870 EVO review: Quality mass storage for the masses

As such, there's probably no need to rush out and grab one right now, as you can still get the same sizes of the equally fast 860 Evo for a lot less. However, as the 860 Evo starts to go end of life and becomes increasingly hard to get hold of, there's little doubt that the 870 Evo is primed and ready to take its place as the new go-to SATA SSD for gaming. The PCMark 10 copy tests are also derived from PCMark 10 traces. At first, these numbers might look low compared with the straight sequential-throughput numbers achieved in benchmarks like Crystal DiskMark 6.0 and AS-SSD, charted below. But that's due to the way this score is calculated and the nature of (and differences between) the source data sets.Of course, even with all those big wins in our games and programs testing, ultimately the SSD 870 EVO is still based on SATA, and SATA has a speed ceiling that even the best controllers and NAND flash in the world can't break through. While enthusiasts tend to search for the best processors and the greatest graphics cards, SSDs are more often overlooked and bought on a basis of read/write speeds and capacity. However, as you can tell, there is more to it than meets the eye, and similarly-priced drives may sometimes perform differently. clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, 34-242-207-243_s-23-203-249-81_ts-1604439174-clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, 34-242-207-243_s-23-203-249-81_ts-1604441206-clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, 34-242-207-243_s-23-203-249-81_ts-1604441267-clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, 34-242-207-243_s-23-203-249-90_ts-1604425484-clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, 34-242-207-243_s-23-203-249-90_ts-1604425610-clienttons-s.akamaihd.net,
