A SCORCHIO fatboy SSD: Samsung SSD850 PRO 3D V-NAND
4Gb/s speeds on a consumer drive, anyone?

Review Samsung has been in the SSD business for over ten years. Most of that time has been spent delivering drives to the Enterprise and OEM segments. Since the introduction of its first consumer SSD drive (the SSD430) in 2010, it has since shipped over 12m drives worldwide – including the SSD840, the world’s first TLC NAND drive.

Samsung SSD850 PRO 3D V-NAND storage

Samsung has some clout, that's for sure and with the latest consumer drive range, the SSD850 PRO, it has another first: the world’s first consumer drive to use 3D V-NAND, in this case the 32-layer version of the technology.

Lest we forget just how fast NAND memory cell structure has developed: in just 15 years it has gone from a 120nm process down to a 16nm process. At the same time, capacity has grown a hundred fold.
