    The lower the price goes, the more wary I become. TLC is junk. Samsung + TLC = Disaster.

    Pricing on the 850 EVO has really taken a dive in the last little while. Samsung must have a hard time selling them. Wonder why...

    Anyway the Crucial BX100 is a better buy in this price range, or Transcend SSD370/OCZ Arc 100 if higher power consumption is not a concern.
