THE 850 PRO 512GB

Samsung doesn't care much about flashy stickers so the 850 Pro features a plain black casing that has the company name at the top and a red cube.

At the rear we see a large sticker and a single T-5 screw (two more are placed beneath the sticker).

The large sticker contains information such as the drive capacity, part number, serial number, barcodes, electrical requirements and several certification and warning icons.

The usual SATA power and data connectors are at the rear so nothing new here as well.

The 850 Pro has 4 V-NAND flash modules at the top, each of which has 8 cell layers.

On the opposite side however there are 4 V-NAND flash modules each of which has 4 cell layers (48 in total resulting in 516GB). The MEX controller along with a 512MB LPDDR2 DRAM cache memory chip is also placed on this side.
