Value-for-Money:


Samsung 750 EVO 120GB


Samsung is a strong player in the SSD market. With their advanced process nodes they can sell at a cheaper rate without compromising performance. The introduction of 3D V-NAND (used in 850 series) has lead to decrease in price of normal planar TLC NAND chips. So Samsung introduced this series the 750 EVO to sell their planar 16nm TLC stock at a cheap rate. Well, it worked. The 750 EVO is one of the cheapest best performing SSDs we have ever seen.

Best Perfomance:
Samsung 850 PRO

Samsung 850 Pro is best SATA based SSD you could buy. It has maximum perfomance with very good endurance rating. It is based on Samsung's 3D V-NAND tech, which offers superior perfomance along at a lower price than previous generation. It is priced a bit high but no SSD offers this much features and perfomance at the price. It features encryption technologies like TCG Opal 2.0, AES 256 other. Which is not found in many similarly priced SSDs.

No matter which SSD you choose, the perfomance increase incredible when you compare to HDD. Application launch times, Windows boot time and Game load times significantly get reduced. We have upgraded many of our old systems here at Zetahertz to SSD and have seen the perfomance of daily tasks improved and a lot of freezing issues on Windows is now gone. Overall, an SSD upgrade is best option for any Desktop or Laptop user for a much improved day-to-day tasks.
