Abstract: The Samsung 960 Evo is the more affordable of the two solid-state drives (SSDs) that the South Korean company launched recently.Unlike the 960 Pro ($459 for 512GB) that I tested last month, the 960 Evo is priced at $349 for the 500GB model.Samsung is able...
Incredible performance for a TLC NAND SSD, High endurance for TLC NAND SSD, Supports latest interface and NVMe protocol, Attractively priced, Includes drive management and data migration tools
Only comes in M.2 form factor, Performance dips once TurboWrite cache is exhausted
SSDs with TLC NAND have traditionally been significantly slower than SSDs with MLC NAND, and we were not expecting this to change with the SSD 960 Evo. And frankly, we were quite surprised by Samsung's claimed performance figures. Can a TLC NAND SSD be so...
The Samsung SSD 960 EVO M.2 NVMe 250GB and 1TB PCIe SSDs both have exceptional performance and show that you can get amazing performance without having to break the bank. The performance of the 960 EVO was greater than last years 950 PRO flagship SSD in m...

If the Samsung 960 Pro didn't exist and anybody other than Samsung released the 960 EVO, it would be a credible flagship product for today's SSD market. It is clearly faster than the Intel 750 everywhere that matters. It is on par with the OCZ RD400 on re...

An eventual software package with new features
More expensive than MLC NVMe competitor, Low performance, When will this ship?, Power sucking driver, Low endurance
Everyone has done something that they regretted as soon as they took the action. Samsung may feel that way about the 960 EVO 250GB because it took the low-capacity model down one step too far. Using lower density flash should have helped, but the fina...

Great Read Performance, Very Competitive Pricing, Dynamic TurboWrite Cache
Writes Drop Off When TurboWrite Cache Is Exceeded, Trailed In Trace-Based Tests
Find The Samsung SSD 960 EVO @ Amazon.comAlthough the drives share many similarities, the Samsung SSD 960 EVO isn't quite the same beast as its big-brother, the 960 PRO. With that said, the 960 EVO is still an exceptionally fast family of Solid State Driv...

Sure, the 960 Pro offers you a few more MB/s bandwidth and higher IOPS and more consistent write performance over the 960 EVO, but with the extremely competitive pricing, we would recommend the EVO over the Pro more often than not. Unless higher endurance...

Sehr hohe Leseraten, Sehr hohe Schreibraten im SLC-Cache, Viele IOPS, NVMe-Unterstützung, Verschlüsselung
Schreibrate nach Cache nur etwas über SATA-Niveau, Weniger Garantie als 850 Evo, Max. Leistung auf Dauer nur bei guter Belüftung
FazitDie nächste Kampfansage von SamsungSamsung bietet mit der 960 Evo nicht nur für Enthusiasten deutlich mehr Geschwindigkeit im Vergleich zu SSDs der SATA-Klasse. Auch wenn der TLC-Speicher beim Schreiben an seine Grenzen stößt, ist die Leistung insges...
Impressive performance, Clean aesthetics, Compact form factor, Uses 3rd Gen VNAND, TRIM Support, Dynamic Thermal Guard, 3 Years Warranty
Good case airflow is needed
Hot on the heels of the 960 PRO, the 960 EVO is another super-quick M.2 drive from Samsung.Behind the design of the 960 EVO we once again see the new Polaris Controller making an appearance, along with Samsung's V-NAND MLC flash memory. In reality the EVO...
