My new Samsung 840 PRO has been one huge disappointment. I find its advertised speed (530mbs read) is right-on, but hardly enough for me to feel any happier with it than I was with my old OCZ Vertex 3 (90gb), which felt way faster. Even with everything installed the right way, firmware up to date and a 4.4GHz OC in my i7 3770k, this drive feels frustratingly slow. So I'm looking into switching back to OCZ once again.
Question is, will the 256gb Vector surpass the 128gb 840 PRO?
The advertised speeds say so, but I keep finding benchmarks that show the Vector's speed way below its supposed tops. Can any ssd user ascertain the Vector lives up to its promised speeds of 550mb max read, 530mb max write and 100k IOPS random read and 95k IOPS random write?
Thanks in advance for your attention. I would hate to throw away any more money on ssds than I already have.
