The Samsung one is the better drive. However, unless you do benchmarks, the difference in performance is not noticeable.
The price mark-up is 45 dollars. I am sure you can find better ways to spend the money.
It has almost exactly the same performance as the Pro but saves money by using TLC which is a non-issue anyway. Awesome reviews online.
The Samsung Magician software works well:
1. Apply overprovisioning once installed.
2. Run a benchmark to see if it's performing properly (requires an Intel SATA3 6gbps controller to achieve top performance. AMD and other controllers will see lower performance).
The Samsung Magician software can autoconfigure your power settings including removing the Hibernation file to achieve maximum space. Works great.
Normally I say would spring for the evo but... 45 more bucks is a hard sell... Plus if you do go with the vector its not like your going to be sitting there wishing you would have bought the 840 Pro... The real world difference is very minor.
Honestly just get the pro and save yourself some money.

Would there be a huge difference in day to day basis ?
