Product Overviews
3D V-NAND Technology
Samsung's innovative 3D V-NAND flash memory architecture breaksthrough density, performance,
and endurance limitations of today's conventional planar NAND architecture. Samsung 3D V-NAND stacks 32 cell layers vertically
resulting in higher density and better performance utilizing a smaller footprint.
TurboWrite Technology
Achieve incredible read/write performance to maximize your everyday computing experience with Samsung's TurboWrite technology.
You can obtain up to 2x faster random read write speeds than the award-winning Samsung 840 EVO. The 850 EVO delivers class-leading performance
in sequential read (540MB/s) and write (520MB/s) speeds. Plus, gain optimized random performance
in all QD for better real-world performance.
Performance compared to 3-Bit MLC-class SSD drives
