For large enterprises and tech enthusiasts planning to upgrade their servers, Samsung’s SSD 840 PRO is the solution. The 840 PRO is fast and reliable -- an ideal choice for professionals looking to supercharge their workflow.

Longer Battery Life

Samsung has made major strides in power efficiency. It boasts the lowest idle power consumption of any SSD, an extremely important achievement considering that SSDs spend the vast majority of their time sitting idle. In fact, Samsung’s MDX controller consumes only 40 mwatt of power during idle mode -- half that of its predecessor and up to 97% less than other SSD controllers. Further improvements come from the use of LPDDR2 cache memory, which offers higher performance while consuming 30% less power when active and 93% less power when idle than regular DDR2 or DDR3 memory. All of these advantages result in an improvement of up to 30 minutes in battery life over previous-generation models, letting employees get even more out of their mobile work environments.

An extended battery life helps employees provide a smooth customer services and uninterrupted presentation without need for battery recharge, creating better services and a good impression to clients.

Rock-solid Encryption to Secure Your Data

Samsung 840 EVO Self Encrypting Drive (SED) security technology will help keep your data safe at all times. The drive is included an AES 256-bit hardware-based encryption engine to ensure that your personal files remain secure -- even if you lose your laptop.

Switch to a High Gear for Rapid Performance

Like changing gears in a car, with Magician software you have the option of RAPID mode, enhancing performance by processing data on a system level through the use of free PC memory (DRAM) as a cache. Depending on your PC memory, you can expect high performance and more efficient command processing, which improves with repeated tasking.

    Good luck with this, my local CPCW staff always mysteriously "lose" these clearance items between checking their own stock system showing it in and coming out of the stock room.

    I'm sure Currys staff would be happy to search the system for you, and then reserve them all for themselves when they realised how cheap they all were. Worst customer service I've ever had from this company.

    Wild goose chase. Cost me cash just phoning up twice. First operator told me that he couldn't check atm so he'd call me back. Never did.

    Anyway, none in London, two in Oxford apparently. Good luck.

    Altrincham.

    The search was done local to the surrounding around of Northwich.
    There were none at Northwich.
    1 at Pin Hill.
    1 at Bolton.
    There's another one nearby I don't recall where.

    To the person saying "No code" - as I said it's no longer online.
    You will have to collar someone who can access the system. Code is on the receipt.
    Despite the "staff get them" comments - this was reserved for me from another store.

    No idea for the rest of the UK but it's a national deal. Limited quantities I'm sure.

    It's marked up "Reduced from £99.99 to £59.99 on the shelf ticket" but £24.97 is the price.

    No worse than the Y800 MiFi with 2GB data on EE PAYG I got for £29 yesterday on clearance, Code is 63558 if anyone has a tame shop assistant who can search the system.


    I was after the E5220 /3gb on Three for £45 but ended up with this.

    Stock on these deals will be its nature be limited, and even if the computer say there is one in stock, as I found with the E5220 due to the rather haphazard nature of the stores these days the stock could be anywhere, or even sold and the staff will not know its sold as the computer lists one.
