Description

• Boost performance with an excellent 3D V-NAND SSD

  Powered by Samsung's cutting-edge 3D V-NAND technology, the NAND flash memory delivers the ultimate in read and writes performance in both sequential and random aspects. This is especially impressive in the 128 GB model that outperforms similar models on the market by more than 100 MB/s in write speed.

• Shift into high gear with the enhanced RAPID mode

  You can kick up the read/write performance on every capacity when you need it with the RAPID mode. Just like shifting gears in a car, Magician software gives you the option to enhance performance by processing data on a system level using free PC memory (DRAM) as a cache, providing 1.8 times faster performance in the RAPID mode.

• Work longer with high-efficiency innovation

  The efficient, power management components in the 850 PRO enable you work longer and more productively. Boasting the lowest power consumption of any SSD when in full use, the 850 PRO expends less energy while maintaining performance. The 850 PRO fully supports the sleep mode on the Ultrabook, consuming only 2 m watts of power. Plus, its LPDDR2 cache memory provides higher performance while consuming 30 percent less power when active and 93 percent less power when idle than typical DDR2 or DDR3 memory.

• Safeguard precious data without sacrificing performance

  Protect your PC's hardware and personal data when you take your laptop on the road with the 850 PRO's SED technology. The drive includes an AES-256-bit hardware-based, full disk encryption engine that secures your data without performance degradation, often experienced with software-based encryption. The 850 PRO's advanced security complies with the TCG Opal v2.0 standards, protecting PSID, and is compatible with the Microsoft eDrive IEEE 1667 protocol. Plus, you can erase or initialize data with the crypto erase service.

• Protect your PC from overheating with Dynamic Thermal Guard protection

  The 850 PRO includes Dynamic Thermal Guard protection, which keeps your PC performance safe from overheating. Dynamic Thermal Guard protection monitors and maintains the drive's optimal operating temperature with a throttle feature that automatically drops the SSD's temperature when necessary to protect your data and ensure the responsiveness you expect.

• Ensure each component works together seamlessly

  Samsung is one of the few manufacturers that actually design all the SSD components in-house and has the most experience in the SSD market. Because Samsung has intimate knowledge of every component and its parts, it can fine-tune them at each stage of development to ensure they work together beautifully.
