When build and run times increase even by a few seconds, it increases my odds of getting derailed with some distraction and loosing my flow. Every second saved here contributes to my bottom line output and ability to remain focused between transitions. Working with large projects in Visual Studio all day, I have seen a noticeable improvement in build times and application launch times. How many of the other answers have actually tried it? I've found Rapid Mode to be noticeably beneficial.

_ end update _ - original historical reasoning follows: If you still run one of these older drives you can no longer claim to need the best performance possible, and should instead just maximize reliability for the remainder of its useful life. I still believe it made sense and benefited some workloads at the time it was introduced, but the market has moved on, and it should now be considered obsolete.

At this point in time, if your budget precludes an SSD upgrade to one that is natively 10x faster, you have already decided that performance isn't that important to you, thus for the sake of reliability, I would now recommend not using Rapid Mode if you still have a drive that supports it.

Windows continues to get updates every few months, but there is minimal incentive for Samsung to continue to patch and evolve the Rapid Mode driver. New SSDs, especially on faster interfaces that support NVME are more than 10x as fast natively than the older drives that support Rapid mode. While I used and appreciated Rapid Mode in the past, I personally no longer use it because a very affordable upgrade to a current generation SSD makes it irrelevant. I would therefore not counsel using RAPID for normal computer usage. Or when the computer crashes before a write has been completed and sent to the SSD, as RAM contents are then lost. With RAPID, one also has higher chances of losing data when power is lost Purposes than just as a disk buffer (programs, memory data etc.). Windows & Linux incorporate very good memory caching which I believe will Takes this memory away from Windows (and the same for Linux). Under normal everyday use, allocating up to 25% of your RAM to RAPID After turning off the rapid mode, all was I had issues with the Samsung magician "Rapid Mode" on, i was not able Happens to be more unstable as well on quite a few system, which is It, other than to give a faked illusion of more performance (which It's a have, and personally I see little to no point in using Process, and doesn't speed up game performance or anything majorly Performance, just slows down your boot, adds another background Loads during the boot process and at best, would create a minusculeįor benchmarking it appears good, but actually in real-world Use and gameplay, cannot see any difference. Work at one time and enabling rapid definitely helped.

Mode is inserted as a filter driver in the Windows storage stack. Magician Software Toolset (version 4.2 and later).
RAPID mode is paired exclusively with Samsung 840ĮVO SSDs and available as a feature of the accompanying Samsung SSD A white paper on this feature can be found here. From what I can tell, this mode will use more memory/RAM to facilitate better/faster read/write speeds. There's a feature (disabled by default) called RAPID (Real Time Acceleration Processing of I/O Data) Mode. I recently bought a Samsung 840 EVO 500 gb solid state drive for my laptop.
