Hey there,

I have one 840 Pro and one 840 EVO and recently read about the Samsung Rapid Mode and was just wondering if anyone of you is actually using it and what your experience is and what you use it for?

I mean, I do see the benefits of it for workstations for pure video editing builds but what about "normal usage"?
Don´t really see the benefits for that.


 
I use Rapid Mode all of the time now on my 128 GB Samsung 840 Pro. Although the benchmarks show some remarkable numbers I can't say that I have really noticed any difference.

My biggest problem is the latency of sites like Tom's Hardware. I click on a link and just wait.......

I just installed RAPID on Samsung 840 Pro through Magician (last time I loaded Magician it was only available to EVO... but is now updated to 4.3). While my system was snappy before, it is like lightning now. At startup the little circular dots used to make 1.5 revolutions before taking me to the startup screen, now it takes 1/2 a revolution and I am there. My Office 2013 applications open instantaneously. My son has almost an identical system to my except with a 1TB HDD vs. an SSD and it feels antiquated.
