Welcome to TLC particle era of SSD - HP HP 15q-aj006tx laptop with Samsung 750 EVO SSD

I wanted to write an article “Speaking of non-conformity plus SSD” in the original article “Sparkling 618 Spoils Trophy - HP HP 15q-aj006tx Notebook & “A Word Fails to Add Memory” and achieved a 100/100 progress. The home has set up additional content that can only be text-only.

In the previous article, the book was reconnected. After the installation of memory, the top left the biggest bottleneck—the mechanical hard disk. I ate more than half a month of instant noodles, and sold the original Western Digital mechanical hard drive in salted fish ponds, and finally got a handful of money. In Cantonese, there are clouds of money and money. There are capital in hand and my heart hurries to purchase SSDs immediately.

At present, various brands, big and small, are all doing SSDs, and the competition is extremely intense. As the industry giant, Samsung also began to cut into the 120GB/299 yuan market. I seem to hear Samsung say that Lao Tzu is the leader and can use all the energy, technology and cost advantages to consume with all his opponents.

Regarding the TLC particle SSD - the cost, is the biggest advantage of TLC, is to cut into the sharpest sword in the market. In 2013, after industry giant Samsung introduced the first TLC SSD, the word “TLC” has been constantly questioning and whining. Now three years have passed. All major brands have adopted TLC particles in almost all models in the low-end market. More TLC particles story, you can search to read the relevant articles of the major IT sites, have a very detailed introduction. This article is no longer popular science.

Every time TLC's SSDs are mentioned, it is estimated that all TLCs are out of the blue and they need to jump out and say that TLC has a short life span and is easy to lose speed. The author talks about several reasons why I dared to choose the TLC:

(The author has a main desktop at home, a variety of large operations, a large number of documents to read and write processing are completed on the desktop. The notebook is used to map a convenient look at the web, code word.)

About life problems. It is undeniable that the lifetime of TLC particles is significantly shorter than that of the original mainstream MLC particles. However, roughly, the 120GB SSD is calculated as 60GB per day, and the lifetime can be about 5 years. The author's average daily write volume is estimated to be less than 1GB. Coupled with the current major manufacturers are developing new technologies to delay this reduction in life expectancy, Samsung has also provided a three-year warranty policy for the 750 EVO . After three years I estimate that I have replaced the SSD upgrade.

Performance issues. The author's notebooks are light applications and have minimal performance requirements. Not to mention the 750 EVO's performance can not be underestimated.

Data Security. The important data in the author's home is on the desktop, but also configured NAS for dual backup. Laptops to store data are done on the NAS.

price. Yes, the author is poor.

In simple terms, what the author wants is only an SSD that can be installed on the system but is inexpensive but the brand has a certain guarantee.

Then, immediately enter the open display session.

Simple packaging that fits the positioning of low-end products:

The same is cool:

On the back there are simple parameters, serial numbers, etc. There is also "Product of China"

Quickly mounted on the laptop's mounting shelf, because it is the standard 2.5-inch specification, no problem:

Take back to the laptop, the entire installation process is completed:

The next step is to install the Win10 system and prepare various driver and test software.

Before looking at performance tests, take a look at the basic parameters of the 750 EVO 120GB. A word of comments: Whether it is the main control, flash memory, cache, or algorithm, all come from the Samsung family. From technology design to supply chain, Samsung can control it.

Another SSD internal dismantling map, from the world's old hardware site tom's hardware. A small piece of PCB above a few chips! Don't be surprised. In fact, an SSD really does a few things. Under mass production and procurement, the individual material cost is very low, so there will be so many unnamed manufacturers who want to make a share of the product.

On the machine test. Run HD TUNE first. Because it is not a continuous reading of the disk test, the results are for reference. But it can be found that it is already much better than the original mechanical hard drive, especially for random reads.

PcMark7 test, 2000 points more than mechanical hard drives:

The test is very simple, and finally comes with a boot video experience:

to sum up:

1. I seem to have forgotten to say that this piece of 750 EVO is a 618 rush to buy special goods, 240 yuan deal. Subtracting 180 yuan to sell the original 500GB hard drive, it cost only 60 yuan to upgrade. It's worth!

2. From the perspective of performance, it is definitely enough for me to use this kind of light application, but the cost is not high but the use experience has a qualitative improvement.

3. But if you doubt the life and performance of TLC, and there are requirements for data security and performance, we advise you to buy back the MLC SSD. I will first use the 750 EVO for three years to see what the consequences are.
