Which M.2 to choose?

[Aorammer]

Samsung 860 EVO 500G or ADATA SX8200 PRO 512GB or is there a better 1?

or should i drop the capacity and a Samsung 970 EVO Plus 250GB?

For $10 more than the Crucial, may as well I guess.

 

Look at Crucial M.2 as well.  https://smile.amazon.com/Crucial-MX500-500GB-2280SS-Internal/dp/B077SQ8J1V/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=crucial+mx500+m.2&qid=1557932369&s=electronics&sr=1-3

 

Personally I went with the 860 EVO's but that was when prices were a bit higher. I'd probably go Crucial now.

 

Edit:  If NVMe drives are going to be almost the same price as SATA drives, may as well buy them even if the benefit is marginal.

m.2 is just a formfactor

 

nvme is faster

 

it's quite a difference

then you MIGHT have some benefit from it, but still rather small

 

this one is really nice for example (it's nvme)
