The specs are pretty much the same, I don't know if there are any significant differences in benchmarks? Anyways, the main argument for me would be price because he seems to be on a budget and the Samsung 840 is a little cheaper.

Yeah but the format is mSATA. Is it for a laptop or a desktop? If it's for a desktop, I don't think many motherboards have an mSATA plug... Check your specs first.
