Expert reviews

Samsung takes aim at the new low-cost entry-level SSD market with another mainstream SSD that rips the competition to shreds. You will still have to pay a little more to get the best, but the small "Samsung Tax" is worth the premium. The 750 EVO offers almost identical performance to the 850 EVO as long as you keep the workloads simple.

Samsung's latest triple-level cell SSD is the cream of the TLC crop thanks to its consistent performance. However, you're still better off overall with a MLC NAND-based drive.
