840 EVO 500GB

I walked away from both of those. Their phones because my last Samsung phone, the S22 was the single worst smartphone I've ever owned. Constant disconnections, constantly not being able to access 5G or LTE networks without a restart, poor battery life etc. SSDs just because I got a better deal on an

Both of my M.2's are Samsung (970 Evo Plus 2TB and 980 Pro 550GB) and both of my Sata SSD's are Samsung (840 EVO 500GB and 860 EVO Plus 2TB.) I have had them for 5 years or longer and they have never let me down.

I've wondered how many Samsung SSDs proactively refresh their contents. I know the history behind the 840 EVO issue. I suspect they may have just used the same solution on the 870 EVO, after the original version suffered from catastrophic issues (bitrot leading to complete failure). The Samsung flas
