Samsung's line of solid-state drives are among the fastest SSDs on the market. The 850 Pro series improves upon the well respected 840 Pro with higher speeds and a doubled warranty length of 10 years (or 150TB of writes). It uses the industry standard SATA 6Gbps interface and supports 256-bit AES drive-level encryption. This specific 512GB capacity model reaches up to 550MB per second for reads and 520MB per second for writes, and in excess of 90k IOPS.

Perfect for notebooks, SSDs are ideal for energy-efficient mobile computing to extend battery life, increase access time, and provide a durable alternative to conventional hard disc drives with superior shock resistance. High capacities and low power consuming NAND flash technology provide the necessary performance and battery life boosts generated by the proliferation of mobile gaming and new ultra-thin laptops. With fast access and seek times combined with excellent reliability, SSDs are the answer for consumers demanding this latest storage technology.
