According to our solid state drive (SSD) expert
The Samsung SSD 850 Pro 512GB 2.5-inch is an internal SSD for laptops and desktops in business environments. The drive is 25% more durable than the 850 EVO series due to the longer time between failures (MTBF). You can also read files with 550MB/s faster than the 850 EVO SSD series. Finally, you get 10 years warranty from Samsung on your SSD. The drive has AES 256-bit encryption which keeps company data or other business documents protected in the event of theft. If you're temporarily not using the disk, the SSD switches to energy-saving mode, where you use up to 25% less power. Using the included Samsung Magician software, you can copy your files to your Samsung SSD.

When I heard about the possibility to upgrade my MacBook Pro 13inch mid 2012, I immediately started looking for an SSD drive that is fast and user-friendly.
I ended up with the samsung 850 pro 512GB ssd and man oh man I don't regret this!
Before the upgrade from hdd to ssd, I still had some questions about whether it worked with the new operating system of mac (OSX Yosemite). I have to thank coolblue for their quick response to this question!
However, keep in mind that for the lifespan and ease of use of the ssd, you set up best trim enabler and disable kext support, this gives you more security for the future.
After installing this ssd drive, my mac boots up in no time + plus working on it is considerably faster. (pages with many photos are there immediately etc)
Then there is also the fact that you get a 10-year manufacturer's warranty from Samsung on this SSD.
Useful programs: Cindori, Superduper ;-) In short, buy that trade!

Package comes with Samsung DATA MIGRATION software, but not with the necessary converter cable (order your own, if you don't already have one). The software will automatically start Samsung Magician software, however this is not the DATA MIGRATION software needed to clone your old laptop/PC HDD.
If you install the correct software and connect the SSD to your USB3 or SATA III via a cable, the data conversion, or cloning, can begin. Depending on the amount of GBs and type of connection, this may take a while. Then turn everything off and remove the HDD and insert the SSD. Turn on laptop/PC and it works immediately.
I chose the Samsung SSD 850 pro because they are very fast and include good data migration (clone) software. I actually wanted to order the smaller brother the SSD 840 EVO (a lot cheaper), but this one turned out to have a degradation problem (read http://tweakers.net/nieuws/99058/samsung-verhelpt-degradatiedoelen-840-evo-ssds.html ).
The Samsung 850 Pro (512 GB) is really lightning fast. With me (Intell i7) read 560 MB/s and write 528 MB/s. The 850 pro is also very energy efficient. in other words recommended...
