Agreed great deal, the 850s use 3D V-NAND memory that is like stacking memory transistors on top of one another, letting them use a larger process resulting in more durability and such.. The 850 Pros come with a 10 year warranty!

The Samsung 850s (EVO and Pro) are the best consumer SSDs out there IMO.

Yeah someone else posted this deal in the computer upgrading thread. I was very tempted but I don't really need another SSD right now.
