Review: Samsung 850 EVO M.2 and mSATA SSD

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 04/17/2015 09:00 AM | source: | 15 comment(s)

We review the new M.2. and mSATA models of the Samsung 850 EVO Series SSDs. Seriously nice storage technology as they are hyper fast, yet made to be very competitive in pricing. Armed with truckloads of performance and that attractive pricing, Samsung will shock and awe you.

Read the full review here.

I have a Crucial CT 500 MX200 in my laptop which is only slightly slower (1065 Vs 1189)than the mSata 850 and a wee bit cheaper. I do like the Samsung support software though.

There are three types of SSD.
Full size ie 2.5 inch
Msata which looks a little like a wireless add-in card
M2 Sata which comes in three lengths but looks a little like the Msata.

Check which version your Laptop can accommodate.
Also if it can take a single SSD or two.

Download Speccy, go to the Storage TAB and see what SATA ports you have
Just checked the specs and you laptop can take a single 2.5 inch SSD.
The MOBO in your laptop is a Intel HM76 which support SATA3 but might have SATA2 to save money.

I still don't understand why these can't have a 1mm thick cover/case. Bare PCB is ugly as hell.
