Haha, lastly the experiment came to an end...

But it do sounds some warning, particularly for Samsung's drive. Both their drives (TLC and MLC) suffered from spontaneous failure without pre-warning, that is something to take note bout though.

I do get that the workload is far beyond what a normal consumer will do, but there are still 2 issues.

- there will be exceptional consumers which indeed have such an insane amount of write on daily basis. Alternatively there may be programs/malwares which assist users achieving such insane amount of write.

- the issue isn't about how much will fail, but the issuing of warning signal b4 failing.

850 pro = new tech (3D V-nand) and among the best one can get for consumer SSD on terms of durability, warranty and speed.

The only concern is its price, LOL...

This probably the cheapest "stated price" I saw around already. Whether still negotiable or not I no idea as never deal with him before.

Running and loading of programs also will be faster.

In short, your PC feel more responsive.

As for your question on upgrade on your vista lappy, yeah it should work.

But I bet your lappy is SATA2 (or older perharps), so the speed will be capped accordingly. But economical and convenience sake, just go out and grab SATA3 HDD.

The speed will be capped, but still far faster than HDD.

By right should be same as RAM,

Normal, your notebook is old and on SATA2 IINM (similar to my notebook, only SATA2).

One of the most significant characteristic of SATA2 you can notice is the number won't breach 300.

Welll, it gonna it in the bandwidth for your GPU, so I hope you don't mind it at first, LOL...

Yup, I always find X99 is much superior to Z97 (especially when high end Z97 cost as much as entry X99).

Even the crippled 5820k also have 28 PCIE 3.0 lanes, easily 12 more than the best Z97 can offer, LOL...

Those are based on some extreme worst condition for enterprise server.

For typical consumers, we don't need to be as paranoid. Just do your regular optimizing, checking and backup.

Hi, mind share where you find it RM330?

Haha thanks.

Intel 320 is soooooooooooooooooo old... It also not among the top performer during its time.

I rather gamble on OEM drives by Liteon/Hynix in garage sale than it.

If on budget, Transcend 370 seems to be the cheapest option around (but they are also relatively slower compared to other top dogs).

But at least you get a proper 3 years warranty from Transcend than getting an EOLed old drive by Intel with unknown warranty.
