A friend just gave me the 1TB version of pic related for my birthday.

put it on your fucking computer you blithering retard.

Trash.

Enjoy your no writes after 3 years.

>>52446121
Use it to store data. Enjoy your SSD, OP!

I'm jelly.

>>52446144
inside would be a better place for it tough

>>52446152
>3 years
The drive will be worth $50 in 3 years and a drive with 5x it's performance will be available for $200. Who the fuck cares if it fails to write at that point?

Anyway, 3 years lifespan is completely wrong. Check the anandtech tests and see how long 850 EVO actually lasts in a stress test. (Hint: it's more like 10 years).

Will an FX 8320e bottleneck an R9 380x?

Yes

yes

Put it in a computer.

sell it for a 950 pro

>tfw no filthy rich friend

>>52446660
What this dude said. Can't argue with 2500/2100 MB/s read/write speeds.

>>52446693
Meh. Only if your PC supports it. Sequential performance beyond 500MB/s isn't noticeable in most applications anyway.

Send it to me

>>52446729
i used one the other day with a 6700k. it blows my 840 evo out of the water. it is to sata ssd's what sata ssd's are to hdd's.

>>52446405
Yes

>>52446121

I would use it, but only for non-essential stuff.

SSDs is basically like longer-lasting ram. It's fast as fuck, but after you restart your computer, you have to re-cache all your programs again.

This is okay if you're a NEET with no life, but if you want to be productivity, stick with HDD as the primary.

>>52446852
Here is your response

>>52446852
You're an idiot. Go read some more John C. Dvorak articles on CNet.

>>52446121
Install Gentoo on it.

>>52446152
>Enjoy your no writes after 3 years.

This will only happen if you write data to it 24/7 at max speed for 3 years continuously.

you can literally predict when they'll come nowadays

>>52446807
I believe you. Given OP has a new system with support for NVMe, I agree with your recommendation.

>>52446121
Install Gentoo

>>52446932
>mis-informed backward hillbilly neo-luddites
You can literally predict when they'll come nowadays. I bet you also started the daily 'SSDs are a meme' thread.

>>52446932
You're not even a good troll. Go away.

>>52446934
it's the first time i've had programs open simultaneously with my second mouse click with imperceptible delay. i had to do a double take. now i'm jealous and want to sell my old shitty ssd so i can fell the powah.

>>52446807
Does the 950 run on a system with no M2 slot, if I use a PCIe 3.0 M2 riser? I'm still on Ivy Bridge.

And by run, I mean does it run at full speed that way and allow OS booting.

Is storing FLACs on a SSD really bad?

>>52447256
Well you don't need to worry about rotational velocidensity losses on SSD, if that's what you're referring to.

>>52446144
plugging in the sata and the power would be better than simply putting it on your computer

refund and buy 850 pro version

>>52446121
Install it and enjoy it.
Buy some beers to your friend.

>>52447256
No.

maybe you shouldnt do anything with it if you are that retarded that you just wont put it in your computer and plug it in so you could use it without asking 4chan

>>52449677

Samefagging, but seriously what the fuck is up with SSD prices. I can buy a bigger USB3.0 flash drive at MicroCenter (128GB) for $15 than most SSDs for $50 (64GB).

>>52446121
Give it to me, duh. Listen to /g/, get rid of the meme by giving it to me.


Seriously though, you have an awesome friend.
