Samsung SSDs are known not only for their performance, but also for unmatched reliability. As a result, 840 Pro series models get 5 year warranty.
Here's a review of another Deepcool cooler, Frostwin V2.0. It's quite a bit smaller than recently reviewed Neptwin, but still boasts dual tower design. Compared to Neptwin, Frostwin V2.0 features four direct contact heatpipes instead of six standard ones, and comes with round fans also used on Gammaxx S40.
We test Deepcool Neptwin CPU cooler, Deepcool's second largest cooler, being smaller only than Assassin. Neptwin features dual tower design, six 6 mm heatpipes and mirror finish copper base. Cooler is equipped with two 120 mm fans.
We review Transcend's latest SATA3 SSD, Ultimate series SSD740 256GB. It is powered by JMicron's JMF667H memory controller and SanDisk's 19 nm MLC NAND memory.

Transcend promises 4K random read/write speed of up to 283/267 MB/s.
