-Why I bought me just this:
I had in my old notebook a 2.5 "Samsung, SSD, is also very fast, there is nothing to complain about there. The only thing that bothered me is that you need a Windows upgrade the firmware, I as a Linux user But since I do not interfere with the Windows program a certain dislike, especially since I was the customer of Samsung not assure you that my partition table remains available. Well, at least there Crucial a firmware upgrade on a bootable CD, most will ...
Then you have to say that the price / performance ratio is really great here. The read speed is nearly the same in virtually all SSDs, Durable should all SSDs (although Samsung with its TLCs there actually is at a disadvantage), that is actually just the writing speed and the controller type interesting. On the Samsung (and many others) sits a SandForce controller and this probably makes always problems. Even with compressed data, this controller is worse compared to the built-up on the Crucial (also Mushkin installed such, that would be my alternative was).
Anyway, I am really very happy, I think that the 250MB Write Speed absolutely sufficient (also this shall only be for maximum performance, so if, for example, Adata, Samsung or anyone else writing down that the write speed is 500MB, then that is completely utopian. Only in the very least, real applications can be reached anywhere near these speeds and on average these SSD cuts no worse off.
All in all, you really can be more than satisfied with this SSD. Also the price is very attractive, I am confident that the SSD is also in 3 years in use (especially because you have ^^ yes 3 years warranty)
