Samsung launches cheaper 750 EVO series SSDs
But they are not cheaper ? Last week we already noticed the 750 Evo-series surfacing in the EU web-shops, initially being launched late last year in the Asia region. The 750 Evo-series are fitted with TLC-NAND and now has hit the EU and USA shops as well.
The 750 Evo-series is fabbed by Samsung from A to Z including NAND and controller. A dual-core MGZ controller is the base of the unit tied towards 16nm TLC based NAND and a 256MB DDR3 DRAM Cache buffer. Samsung has released a 120 and 250 model here in the EU. Much like the 840 EVO series the TLC NAND will make the product slower. But an SLC written NAND chunk will polish that loss up for the bigger part making it compete with the 850 series.
| MODEL | 120GB | 250GB |
| Read (sequential) | 540 MB/s | 540 MB/s |
| Write (sequential) | 520 MB/s | 520 MB/s |
| Read (4k random) | 94000 IOps | 97000 IOps |
| Write (4k random) | 88000 IOps | 88000 IOps |
Here's the curious thing, this budget SSD is selling at 64 EURO / 93 EURO for the 120 and 250 GB parts respectively. The Samsung 850 EVO however you can purchase for 65 EURO (120GB) with the 250GB model at ... 85 EURO.
So pretty much the 850 EVO series are a notch cheaper opposed to the budget 750 series ?!

This is pretty common with SSDs. The current 850s are selling for lower than their list price. Once these have been out a few months they will drop in line where they should be.
Same prices as 850's as far i can tell, wtf.

Who in their right mind would buy the 750 evo over the 850 evo when you can get the 850 evo cheaper or around the same price? I don't understand this move from Samsung

I certainly hope it goes that way and not the other way: 850 EVO getting a price increase.
