The drives are the same, but are they different when u copy large files, over 80-150 GB. Most users dont do this but i would like a test on files over 80gb.
really late but if u turn on rapid mode in samsung magician it will use just a little bit of your ram and your read and write speeds will go really high, which is probably why samsung evo 860 evo is quite more expensive than the mx500

You're still pretty much limited by the transfer rate across the SATA connector though.

VNAND Storage operates differently on different brands, as they have their own tailored forms of how they store stuff. In my opinion, durability is on samsung's side, as it provides greater resistance to being damaged by writing heavily to it.

Reading speed the mx500 beats the 860 evo anytime .... But writing large quantity files like a 100gb file .... The 860 is by far the better option ..... Either way both drives are similar ... But I stick with crucial ....
If you rely on these data, you will be screwed. I bought 850 Evo 120 GB in 2016 for my laptop and Crucial mx100 250gb in 2014 for my desktop. According to data as appears in this video, and according to benchmark websites, my Samsung is much much better. But according to my use and my experience, Samsung was much much worse than Crucial. It was much slower. So don`t rely on these data. Read users experience only!!! I used them on pretty much similar hardwares.

In this case MX500 wins, per example 860 EVO 500 gb has 300 TBW and Crucial MX500 1 Tb has 360 TBW and both are at the same price at this moment; therefore, more space, and more TBW for crucial for the same price.
