It would be best to choose SSD

Hello I want to buy ssd for my sister I was wondering to buy samsung 850 evo 250gb but my friend told my that it slows down, now I don't what ssd to buy maybe some one could offer better solution.

Its fine....

 

All SSDs slow down somewhat - Yes Intel are probably the least affected but they are also 3x the price of anything else...

 

840 EVOs had some issues but it really wasnt *that* bad - they did a firmware update to basically push through it but still...

Every SSD slows down. I've not heard of EVOs slowing down more but I could be wrong. It's fine.

Even the 840 evo is fine.

I have it and I had no issues.

Go with the 850 Evo though, it is a really good SSD.

Get the 850 evo dude.

 

It's a good SSD.

intel 730k.

 

Love mine. 8 months in no slow down, still zipping along (of course it isn't my boot drive, got something better for that) Any in house intel drive is worth the money. They don't have the best performance out of the box, but they are almost indestructible, In the only long term destruction test I have seen the intel drive "failed" first. Except it didn't fail, it realised it had gone way to far over what the engineers thought it could take, and switched itself over to read only to preserve the data on it. Every other drive in the test corrupted it's data long before it failed.
