I'm working on a new build and I wanted to know which SSD is the best performance-wise, price doesn't matter atm, I just need an 240GB-256GB model.

I'm currently looking at:

Samsung 840 Pro Series

Samsung 840 Pro is the fastest and Samsung drives have the best reputation for reliability.

The 4K random simulates daily use.

That is a very good price for the 840 Pro as well.

The Vector is a tiny bit faster than the 840 pro.

That being said, there's no point in buying either of those - the difference between a Vertex 4 or 830 and a 840pro or vector isn't going to be anywhere close to noticeable by a human.


Ummmm no. According to Anandtech the Vector is faster than the 840 Pro in all of 3 of 17 benchmarks. The 840 Pro is generally at the very top of every single benchmark.
