The MX100 512GB is a pretty fast SSD, and the EVO has features like Rapid and Samsung Magician software.

It's up to you, crucial makes really good SSDs, and it has the cheaper ones. I'd go for that one :)

Anandtech has the best SSD reviews IMO:

Crucial, m500 if you can get it with discount because they want to get rid of their old stock or a mx100. But for the lower capacities I would go with the mx100.

Have done already but thank you for the post 

 

I will probably go for the 840 evo 

 Ps recommendations on Clone Software? 

 

 

i was think of either The Samsung magician or Acronis migrate easy 7

Use the magician. It has some bugs here and there, but my data synced through reliably. No problems with my EVO.
