What is V-NAND and how does it
differ from existing technology?
Samsungs flash memory is fabricated using an innovative 3D V-NAND
architecture, which stacks 32 cell layers on top of one another. The result is
higher density and higher performance using a smaller footprint and a
breakthrough in overcoming the density limits of conventional planar NAND.
Boost performance with an
industry-leading 3D V-NAND SSD
Powered by Samsungs cutting-edge 3D V-NAND technology, the NAND
flash memory delivers class-leading read and write performance for both
sequential and random workloads.
An SSD that wont quit before you do
With twice the endurance of the previous model1, the 850 PRO will keep
working as long as you do. Samsungs V-NAND technology is built to
handle a minimum of 150 Terabytes Written (TBW) over the lifetime of the
drive, which equates to a 40GB daily read/write workload over a 10-year
period. Plus, it comes with the industrys top-level 10-year limited warranty.

Work longer with high-efficiency innovation
The efficient design of the 850 PRO enables you work longer and more
productively. Boasting the lowest power consumption of any SSD
when in full use, the 850 PRO uses less energy while maintaining
class-leading performance. The 850 PRO fully supports Device Sleep
mode for Ultrabook, consuming only 2 milliwats (2mW)
of power in its ultralow power state. Plus, its low power DDR2 cache
memory provides high performance while consuming up to 30% less
power when active and up to 93% less power when idle than typical
DDR2 or DDR3 memory.
Safeguard precious data without sacrificing performance
Protect your PCs hardware and personal data when you take your laptop on
the road with the 850 PROs Self-Encrypting Drive (SED) technology. The drive
includes an AES 256-bit hardware-based, full disk encryption engine that
secures your data without the performance loss often experienced with
software-based encryption. The 850 PROs advanced security complies with
the TCG Opal v2.0 standard and is compatible with the Microsoft eDrive
IEEE 1667 protocol. Plus, you can quickly erase data or sanitize your drive
with the crypto erase feature.

Protect your PC from overheating
with Dynamic Thermal Guard protection
The 850 PRO includes Dynamic Thermal Guard protection, which sustains
performance while minimizing the risk of overheating. This feature monitors
and maintains the drives optimal operating temperature with a throttle feature
that automatically drops the SSDs temperature to protect your data while
ensuring the responsiveness you expect.
Level up to the 850 PRO simply without any hassle
Using its One-Stop Install Navigator software, you can migrate all your data and
applications from your SSD or HDD to the 850 PRO quickly and easily. The Auto
Install guide navigates you through a simple three-step point-and-click process.
Plus, you can conveniently set up, monitor, manage and maintain your 850 PRO
with Samsung Magician software, which features tools to help you maximize
performance, including benchmarking, advanced OS optimization, disk health
status tracking and overprovisioning (OP) settings.
Shift into high gear with the enhanced RAPID mode
You can kick up the read/write performance when you need it with Samsung
RAPID mode. Just like shifting gears in a car, Magician software gives you the
option to enhance performance by processing data using unused PC memory
(DRAM) as a cache, providing 1.8x faster performance in RAPID mode2.

Ensure each component works together seamlessly
The Samsung 850 PRO uses 100% Samsung-designed and -manufactured
components. Because Samsung has intimate knowledge of every
component and its parts, it can fine-tune them at each stage of
development to ensure they work perfectly together. The result enhanced
performance, lower power consumption with the Samsung LPDDR2 DRAM
cache memory and improved energy efficiency with the Samsung
three-core MEX controller.
