Samsung, a world leader in advanced memory technologies, announces the latest SATA solution in its consumer external hard drive (SSD) line with the 870 EVO SSD. With the best performance and reliability, the storage drive is suitable for a wide range of users, from ordinary PC users to IT professionals. Samsung EVO SATA SSD line is the world’s best-selling consumer SSD family[1].
“With a strong combination of performance and reliability, the 870 EVO is the pinnacle of our SATA SSD line., ”Said Roderick Niehorster, Marketing Manager for Memory Business at Samsung Benelux. ” The SSD is widely usable. It’s an ideal storage solution for both regular PC and laptop users, and IT professionals. “
The Samsung 870 EVO is equipped with the latest V-NAND and controller from Samsung, achieving maximum SATA sequential read and write speeds of 560 and 530 MB / s respectively. Thanks to Intelligent TurboWrite technology, which uses a large variable SLC buffer memory, even peak loads are no problem. With almost 38% improvement in random read speed over the previous 860 model[2], user experience is reaching new heights. From multitasking to browsing through the startup of PCs, everything operates with the same fluidity.
To ensure that all the components work together and communicate perfectly, Samsung has designed everything in-house. As a result, the 870 EVO offers sustained performance approximately 30% better than the 860 EVO.[3]. The 4TB model has a capacity of 2400 terabytes written [4] (TBW) with a five year warranty[5].
The 870 EVO combines exceptional performance and reliability with great compatibility. The unit can be used with any device that has a 2.5 inch SATA interface connector. In addition, the 870 EVO is compatible with devices that support Windows Modern Standby in low power standby mode, a very useful feature for PC users.[6]. When producing the 870 EVO, the carbon footprint was also kept as low as possible throughout the manufacturing process.
The Samsung 870 EVO will be available in 250GB, 500GB, 1TB, 2TB and 4TB, retailing at € 49.99, € 79.99, € 159.99, € 239.99 and 459.99 € respectively. For more information, please visit the website samsung.com/ssd or samsungssd.com.
