ssd

[Florian11]

I am going to get a SSD soon but i dont know which one.

I would Luke to know which you think is better Kingston hyperX 3k or Samsung 840 evo.

My personal experience:

THe thing is that i always used Kingston USB Sticks and They are pretty good.

I also had 2 Samsung phones and they are very slow and i cant even watch all my photos in them.

So now i actually would buy a Kingston SSD but what do you guys think about the choice

[Izaya Orihara]

What is your budget? 

[NewAndreas]

They are both great SSDs, just pick the cheapest one honestly.

Also, Samsung is a huge company, and the phones do not reflect the quality of their SSDs.

I found this benchmark too, seems like the samsung is faster: http://www.anandtech.com/bench/product/565?vs=965

Get the cheapest, the difference won't be noticeable between those two.

 

Also, why would you rule out Samsung because of their phones being slow, it has nothing to do you SSD's.

Enough for a 500/480gb SSD :-)

300€

Protip: Everyone and their grandmother is going to be "Samsung Evo", just a heads up. I'd get the Hyper X just to be different and Kingston stuff is usually solid on their higher tier stuff.

Here you go an Samsung 840 evo 500GB  for 199€

 

Samsung's 840 EVO is as Linus did put it : The SSD to buy. It's stupid fast if you use Rapid mode. (It uses 2 gb of your ram to speed up the SSD even more.) http://www.cyberport.at/?DEEP=3306-01G&APID=294&STOREID=7

It's 20gb less than the EVO and 80€ more expensive. Also it's slower... What's the point?

Hyper x 3k is pretty.

[Izaya Orihara]

Hyper x 3k is pretty.

So is the EVO. It looks way better in person than it does on the pics.

The Evo uses TLC flash which has lower writing cycles than typical MLC based drives. Country, retailer and time of the year dictates the price of the drive. In one country the drives might be close while another it might be more expensive or cheaper. I'm just saying it gets old hearing "Samsung Evo" to the point that it's kinda comical how often it is parroted like no other SSD exists. In the real world, consumer SSDs don't perform that dramatically different from another if they are of the Sata III variety. Get whichever is cheapest at the time of purchase in your country. It's that simple.

I wrote it.... The HyperX is 280€ (480) and the Samsung is 200€ (500) Also i know but i don't really care what kind of flash it uses. In 3 years it will be outdated anyways and i'll throw it in the bin.

I just love the look of the hyperx one and since i havent lost ans data in the Kingston usb's it feels Like i dont have to clone the SSD very often for safety

[Florian11]

Thanks god that my laptop has 1x msata and 2xSata 6gb/s ports

Do whatever you want but the better choice is the EVO. Just because it's cheaper and has rapid mode. 

[Le Lion de Barreras]

The Evo is the better drive overall. Looks shouldn't matter to you in the end if you're not going to able to look at. I had a choice between the Kingston and the Crucial and I chose Crucial and I haven't regretted it. But if I had more cash I'd have gotten the Samsung Evo.

[Florian11]

Danke/thanks

[Ryoku]

I have 3 840 Evos and I have no complaints at all.

[Florian11]

How offen die They loose data, so you had to put your clone on them?

I think i will go for a 840evo notebook kit and usw my curremt HDD for

Cloning.

I need the 500gb cuz the New games need so much storage.

BF3, BF4, BFBC2, Cod ghost, i will get titanfall too
