Why not the 850 Pro?

the extra IOPS or speed arent worth the price premium

 

any SSD will be fast enough for the average consumer and is of not much difference

the only difference for an average consumer is reliability

because it's more expensive of course and you don't need the extra writes it can handle, it will last years regardless of which one you buy

but it does have a 10 year warranty compared to the evo's 5 year warranty

Did the slow reads on "old" data problem ever go away with the 850 vs. the 840 TLC?
