Can you not just get a Samsung? If not, I'd go for a Sandisk or Adata, I guess.

Any of the AData, Sandisk is fine.

I would personally get the Sandisk one.

I'd say Sandisk is better.

 

But why not Samsung 850 evo?

Intel Core i3 2100 @ 3.10GHz - Intel Stock Cooler - Zotac Geforce GT 610 2GB Synergy Edition

Intel DH61WW - Corsair® Value Select 4GBx1 DDR3 1600 MHz - Antec BP-300P PSU

WD Green 1TB - Seagate 2.5" HDD 1TB - Seagate Barracuda 500GB - Antec X1 E.
