Samsung unveils 2TB 850-series SSDs

[ahhming]

Both new 850 2 TB models use the same Samsung MHX tricore controller and 2 GB of Samsung LPDDR3 DRAM

The 850 Pro ships with Samsung's 32-layer 3D V-NAND MLC, and the 850 EVO ships with 32-layer 3D V-NAND TLC.

Pretty nice but I would like to see a 1TB m.2 SSD from samsung I would buy that in a heartbeat.

Cool to see how far they're pushing this, now if only it didn't cost as much as my entire computer.

[VerticalDiscussions]

i wouldnt need 2Tb for the Operating System. Im happy with my 850 Pro 256Gb already

No. My SM951 512GB is cancerous enough.

[LegendKillerRG]

Does the M550 to the 850 Evo really have that 200 minutes gap?

Testing need to be done!

Meh. I'll stick with my 840 Pro 512GB. Keeps everything I need on it and I don't even have to have an HDD.

Such storage

Such price to expect

How so?

[Rohith_Kumar_Sp]

idk if i ever trust my data on an SSD, so i'll never be buying an SSD above 512gigs, i simply dont trust me data on it, especially your storage files. 

[Antistatic12]

Oh sweet. 2TB SSD's (consumer ones atleast) are here.
Be interesting to see how fast the price falls on these in say a years time.

[othertomperson]

Holy shit nearly had an aneurysm when I misread "2000 GB" as "2000 GBP"

 

On the subject of price, though, I'm guessing this is going to be about £550 - £600. Probably not going to shave a tonne off the £/GB ratio.

[Grrizz]

Next year's going to be a great year for SSDs IMO

[dukethedj]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNND Here I am with my 6 year old 500 GB WD Blue. 

[wpirobotbuilder]

The pricing of the 2TB Evo is pretty good -- $0.40/GB is one of the better $/GB ratios. Also, that storage density...

[qwertywarrior]

they can fit over 6TB if they wanted but i dont think controller tech is up to par yet

Really? Why?

[Florb]

How so?

Alright, my 512GB Model was 700AUD, imagine a 1TB model, let alone 2TB, that's the same price as my 5960X!

[Rohith_Kumar_Sp]

Really? Why?

Why would you ? if its gone, its gone.

[ObeseWalrus]

I'm exited for the future of ssd's

Why 512 gigs? It's pretty big for someone who is afraid of SSDs. Also, why don't you like SSDs? They are way faster, just as reliable (as long as it's a high-end one) and silent.

According to Anandtech it's closer to 120, but yes, there is a big difference because Micron decided to put a higher power processor under the hood for the controller.
