Samsung 830 SATA3 SSD 256GB Review

PC Mark Vantage

Moving into some tests that are closer to the real world speeds you should expect, the Samsung 830 256GB SSD has a mixed bag of results. It’s there or thereabouts in every PC Mark Vantage test, without ever moving ahead of either the Crucial M4 or Kingston Hyper X. 

x264 Benchmark

In keeping with the theme we saw in PC Mark testing, in the x264 benchmark the Samsung 830 just slips behind the Crucial M4. Not by much, but still just slower.
