The Samsung 845DC Pro was a solid-state drive in the 2.5" form factor, launched in June 2014, that is no longer in production. It was available in capacities ranging from 400 GB to 800 GB. This page reports specifications for the 800 GB variant. With the rest of the system, the Samsung 845DC Pro interfaces using a SATA 6 Gbps connection. The SSD controller is the MDX (S4LN021X01) from Samsung, a DRAM cache chip is available. Samsung has installed 24-layer MLC NAND flash on the 845DC Pro, the flash chips are made by Samsung. The 845DC Pro is rated for sequential read speeds of up to 530 MB/s and 460 MB/s write; random IOPS reach up to 92K for reads and 51K for writes.
The SSD's price at launch is unknown. The warranty length is set to five years, which is an excellent warranty period. Samsung guarantees an endurance rating of 14600 TBW, an extremely high value, making this drive fit for demanding enterprise applications.
