870 EVO SATA storage for compatible client systems
The Samsung 870 EVO 250GB MZ-77E250BW combines Samsung V-NAND, the MKX controller and 512MB LPDDR4 cache in a 2.5-inch, 6.8mm SATA design. Its exact capacity, endurance, power and sustained-write figures are stated separately to help buyers choose the correct 870 EVO SKU.
Up to 560MB/s read
Samsung rates the drive up to 560MB/s sequential read under its published test conditions.
Up to 530MB/s write
Sequential write is rated up to 530MB/s with Intelligent TurboWrite; after the intelligent turbowrite region, samsung specifies 300mb/s sequential write for this capacity group.
98K/88K random IOPS
QD32 random performance is rated up to 98K read and 88K write IOPS.
512MB LPDDR4 cache
This exact 250GB model includes 512MB of LPDDR4 DRAM cache.
150TBW endurance
Samsung specifies 150TBW, with warranty coverage governed by the stated time period or endurance limit.
Data-security support
Samsung lists AES 256-bit full-disk encryption, TCG Opal 2.0 and IEEE1667 Encrypted Drive.
Who is the Samsung 870 EVO 250GB MZ-77E250BW best for?
A strong choice for
- Compatible desktops and laptops with a 2.5-inch SATA bay
- Users who need 250GB nominal SATA SSD capacity
- Client-PC boot, application and everyday storage upgrades
- Replacing a supported 2.5-inch SATA hard drive or SSD
- Workloads that fit the published client-drive performance and endurance profile
Consider another model if you need
- Your system lacks a compatible 2.5-inch SATA connection
- You require NVMe performance rather than SATA performance
- You need endurance beyond 150TBW
- You require a data-centre or enterprise SSD profile
