@ 2013/01/06A very short time ago we reviewed Samsung’s newest flagship the 840 Pro. The capacity we chose was 128GB because it had yet to be widely reviewed. Well, we’re back at it again and this time we’re serving up the 128GB 840 Pro in RAID 0 as only RWL can.
A single 128GB 840 Pro proved to be the fastest MLC based SATA III drive we’ve ever reviewed in any capacity. The caveats being we still haven’t reviewed the 256GB 840 Pro or the Vector 128GB. The only thing better than one of these performance monsters, is of course 2 of them in RAID 0.
What separated the Samsung 840 Pro 128GB from the rest of the pack was its performance with data on the drive. With data on the drive no other MLC Based drive we’ve tested had near the performance of our 840 Pro. This is what matters and the reason why reviews that don’t test a drives performance with data on the drive are in our opinion inherently flawed. Like we’ve said a million times; you don’t run your drives empty do you?
