Samsung 830 512GB finally more affordable!

[Coup27]

Why is tweakboy allowed to continue to do what he does and anybody who says anything against it gets an infraction?

I already have a blackmark against my name and I actually like this forum, but something is definitely not right around here.

Samsung 830 doesn't really slow down until it reaches its maximum rated life.

it is rated to have 3000 erase cycles, a user reported it slowing down when reaching 8000 erase cycles (more than double the official rated cycles),
and it remained fully functional.

as far as i know, no one reported samsung slowing down under normal working conditions.

the numbers might be in-accurate, you can check at the xtremesystems.org

Yeah, I think Burner27 was getting overzealous if he gave out infractions for any posts in this thread. Maybe I'll get an infraction for this post D:

Can we stay on-topic please? Those who deserved infractions got them.

Maybe the thread could stay on topic if the issue of undeserved infractions were not repeatedly brought up (in bold text, no less) in posts #25 and #29.

Have to be crazy to get that with the price of the 256gb 830 so low. Get two of them.
