Hello people of Guru3d haven't been to the forum in awhile so it's nice to be back. Now, I need your help to help me choose an SSD. I have these tow options. The intel one is 240G and the Samsung is a bit more at 256. Intel is also a bit more expensive but right now the price is not a concern and please do not take into account. All I care about is which one would offer me more quality for a desktop use. I'm going to be situating my OS onto the SSD. I need your options, thanks.
Hi there I would go with 850 EVO there,have this one and I'm really happy with this one SSD Intel 730 is very comparable to EVO,I think Intel have 10 year warranty and Samsung have 5 years,in some benches they're very close,I've tried few SSD like Sandisk,Crucial and Intel and Samsung and Samsung has been best for me,offered me best results,cheaper Sandisk models are close to Crucial MX200,Crucial MX200 has been slow and not the best...Intel I've tried only cheaper model I think 530,which I'm still using in other system for OSX. Hope this helps Thanks,Jura
read speeds are the same. samsung 850 pro has double the write speed than intel 730 (sequential data) samsung can costs 60%-70% of intel 730 depending on where you buy so thats 2:0 for the 850 PRO (i see that you can ignore price tag. but samsung is cheaper and faster in certain scenarios.)
