Samsung SSD 840. Your PC made new again.

 

The Samsung SSD 840 is the Single Best Upgrade for your PC

The easiest and most economical way to breathe new life into an existing system is to upgrade to an SSD. When boot-up speeds and application loads are slow, people become frustrated with their PCs’ performance. Today, most PC performance woes are the result of slow read and write speeds on behalf of the main storage device rather than a lack of CPU performance. Thus, upgrading to a Samsung SSD 840 can breathe new life into your system by enhancing boot-up speed, application loading, and multi-tasking performance.

Simple, 3-Step Upgrade Solution

Don’t waste your time & money by changing PCs. With its simple upgrade solution, Samsung’s 840 is the single best upgrade for your PC and will deliver a whole new PC experience. There is nothing to fear, because a simple, 3-step process will easily migrate all of your existing data. The much-improved Magician software makes it convenient to maintain your SSD at its best condition. And Samsung’s SSD 840 is available with a full range of installation accessories for both desktops and laptops. (Installation accessories are offered only in kit models.)

SSDs save time, letting you do more of what you love

With the Samsung 840, photo editing programs load twice as quickly and video clips render 30% faster than with an HDD. An 840 Series SSD helps you get work done and out to family and friends in no time, leaving extra time to do more of what you love. Spend less time in front of the computer and more time making memories.

Multi-tasking multiplied. A powerful complement to Windows 8.

Outstanding Multi Tasking Performance : Windows 8’s intuitive new Metro UI encourages multitasking. Samsung’s 840 Series SSD ensures users will experience great, lag-free performance when working with multiple applications. Consistently Fast Boot Time : Worn-in Windows installations must manage a plethora of third-party applications, many of which load instructions at start-up. While an HDD will suffer performance deficits over time, the 840 Series industry-leading Random Read Speeds and Latency time ensure that boot times remain fast even after months of heavy OS use and application installs.

Industry-leading reliability

From the world’s leading storage engineers at the #1 maker of SSD components, Samsung’s SSD 840 Series delivers rock-solid reliability and sustained high performance over time and under heavy use.

A True End-to-End, Integrated Solution

Samsung SSDs are designed completely in-house. To arrive at the perfect solution, Samsung builds all of the main SSD components itself. The result is enhanced performance with Toggle DDR2 NAND flash, lower power consumption with LPDDR2 cache memory, and better energy efficiency with the 3-core MDX controller.

Toggle DDR2 NAND Flash Memory

Samsung’s Toggle DDR2 NAND flash chips enable data transfer rates of up to 400 megabits per second (Mbps)-more than three times as fast as previous chips – offering dramatic read speed performance improvements. In addition to performance improvements, the chips also consume less power than competing NAND.

3-core MDX controller

More powerful and energy-efficient than our previous generation controller, the new Cortex-R4 CPU-based Samsung MDX controller accomplishes more under the same power conditions than the previous-generation MCX controller.

Ultra Low Power Consumption for Longer Battery Life

Samsung has made major leaps forward in power efficiency with the 840 Series.  It boasts the lowest idle power consumption of any SSD*, an extremely important achievement considering that SSDs spend a vast majority of their time sitting idle (a positive side-effect of their extremely fast processing speeds). In fact, Samsung's new MDX controller consumes only 40mwatt of power during idle mode - half that of its predecessor and up to 97% less than other SSD controllers. Further improvements come from the use of LPDDR2 cache memory, which offers higher performance while consuming 30% less power when active and 93% less power when idle than regular DDR2 or DDR3 memory. All of this results in an improvement of up to 30 minutes in battery life over the 830 Series, letting you get more out of your mobile experience.

Unbeatable Performance with up to 300% Upgrade Speed

Don't get frustrated by your sluggish PC anymore! You can now REVIVE your aging PC with Samsung SSD 840. SSD 840 has much higher random/sequential speeds than HDD. This makes it possible for users to carry on with multiple computing activities more quickly and stable, from booting, uploading or copying files. The SSD 840 reduces the time from the regular 2-minute mark by 65%. It also speeds up file-transfer. In fact, it only takes 30 seconds to copy an entire video file, while it takes up to 100 seconds on a regular HDD.
