Customer Review

Actually I wanted to wait with the purchase of an SSD to the purchase of a new computer until about mid-year. After reading many articles in c't and the internet but I struggled through myself and bought the Samsung SSD 830 64GB as a boot disk for my old system. I am working for 20 years in private and partly indirectly professionally (software development) with computers, I have never experienced such a speed gain anywhere near through the sharing of a single component.

Data my (old) computer (homegrown, buying in mid-2007):
- Core2 Duo 6420
- P965 Asus P5B motherboard (SATA II)
- 4 GB RAM
- NVIDIA GeForce 8600GT
- Samsung HDD 320GB

Of course you can say that I would certainly have experienced with any other SSD a similar gain in speed. The Samsung SSD 830 especially among the smaller SSD if we are to believe tests of tomshardware.de and other sites over Intel and Crucial M4 already mostly nose has front. Bought is equipped with a minimally higher energy consumption (3-core processor and 256MB RAM for control of the SSD). Although I in a desktop system personally do not feel 5 watts consumption as much. All owners of computers with SATA-II port, I can say that the acquisition is still worth. On paper, I have thanks to missing SATA III data connection instead of 500MB / s in sequential read "only" 256 MB / s, but I notice it when booting and when opening programs nothing. The boot process is so short that the Windows 7 animation not displayed completely and 2 seconds after logging in Windows is ready to operate. Applications such as browsers or Windows Explorer are launched in a split second. If I had my old box no longer have believed! The sequential write speed is on my system, incidentally, 157 MB / s.

What I also like about this product:
+ 3 years warranty
+ Norton Ghost Supplement (but Samsung recommends - not without reason - the new installation)
+ Samsung SSD Magician software (analyzed and optimized by pressing a button, the Windows settings, so be Super Fetch, Defragmentierdienst, ReadyBoost (in Vista) and the index service is stopped by the software and deactivated and the power plan set so that the SSD is never off )
+ Accessories (rail to install the SSD in a 3.5 inch bay of the housing, all necessary cables and screws included)
+ Optics (extremely small and noble scharzes aluminum casing, beautiful and functional packaging)

What I do not like about this product from the perspective of computer Laienen:
- Supplied separately Manual describes briefly and concisely all the important points of the hardware and software installation. Unfortunately, there is but at only in English / Korean. In other languages ​​including German in the manual can be found on the enclosed CD-ROM / DVD-ROM.
- Test, I have installed on my old hard drive Norton Ghost from the included Norton disc. There was no language and because I was stunned that Ghost comes completely in English. Only later I saw that a German-language version of Ghost also is in Lieferumgfang, only this is not on the disc labeled "Norton Ghost" but on the orange Samsung Disc.

Since the localization problems are umschiffbar and I am completely satisfied otherwise, this little SSD has the 5 stars earned in my eyes.
