Hello.

I m thinking of upgrading my laptop mechanical hard-drive into SSD. By reading reviews Samsung SSD (ie Samsung 840pro 256 GB and 870 evo 250 GB) catches my attention. Which one should i choose between 840 evo and 840 pro . They have almost same price range, 840pro being $30 more expensive than 840evo. I will be basically using my computer like a typical user. No hardcore editing or games Just normal office use and some casual gaming. I heard 840 PRO have MLC which are more reliable than EVO TLC but EVO are newer . Please help me to choose !!

get the cheaper option. you won't even notice the difference between them unless you benchmark. but for everyday use, no. i even have an old sata2 ssd (and one recent sata3 ssd) and it is A LOT faster than my mech drives. and that intel sata2 is not even the fastest back then.
my latest one is a crucial m500, it was the cheapest i could find
