The Samsung 850 EVO mSATA is a 1TB solid-state drive in the small mSATA form factor, aimed at laptops and compact builds that lack a full 2.5-inch bay. It uses Samsung's 3D V-NAND and a SATA 6Gb/s interface, rated around 520 MB/s sequential writes. That makes it a solid upgrade for older machines still running hard drives, though it is a legacy format: most current laptops and desktops use M.2 NVMe instead. Its main rivals are other mSATA drives, which are now scarce and rarely match Samsung's firmware and endurance reputation.
