Bout to pull the trigger on installing a SSD in my 2011 iMac. Wondering if I should get the Samsung 850 EVO or Pro? Only a $57 difference between the 2 on Amazon. Any real world benefits to the Pro?
Got a tip for us?

In reality, nope.
Unless you do a lot of writes every day, the 850 Evo will perform almost identically.
That said, since it's an $57 difference I wouldn't mind going for the Pro.
Most regular users wouldn't see any differences. However, the extended warranty period should be worth something if you decide to sell it later on.
