At first glance, the specifications between the QVO and EVO may seem close, but that illusion is instantly broken when you see the price difference. The QVO is expensive, and the EVO accelerates past the QVO price point by a good £100 in general online shops.
Checking the Samsung website’s pricing and the price difference between the two should only be £50. However, checking the prices quoted on the Samsung website, they all seem to be a good £100 less than I could find anywhere online.
As with the 870 QVO, the form factor is that of a 2.5″ drive and features SATA (6Gb/s) interface. This means it will fit into an enclosure or a caddy so is compatible with most desktop PCs and Mac Pro 5.1’s.
The quoted read / write speeds are 560MB/s read, and 530MB/s write, so identical to the 870 QVO, more than fast enough for most photography and HD video editing needs.
The drive is available in 250, 500, 1024, 2048 and 4096GB versions; I’m looking at the 4098GB or 4TB model.
The DRAM cache is 4GB, and the DRAM memory type is LPDDR4.
The big difference between the two is the storage memory with the EVO featuring Samsung V-NAND 3bit MLC and the QVO having Samsung V-NAND 4bit MLC.
Digging into the specifications a little further and seeing the Random reads of the EVO are 13,000 IOPS Random Read as opposed to 11,000 for the 870 QVO and 36,000 IOPS Random Write for the EVO as apposed to 35,000 IOPS for the 870 QVO. These figures give the EVO that slight edge for certain applications such as those used for video editing.
Aside from that, there is a weight difference with the EVO weighing in at 48g and the 870 QVO 54g.
Finally, as longevity is the main feature of this drive, it comes with a 5-year warranty, two years more than the 870 QVO.
