Transcend 1TB 2.5in SATAIII SSD Vs Samsung 860 EVO 500GB 2.5 inch SATAIII ?

[TrxBoy93]

Should I go for 1TB? Or should I go for "BRAND"? Is Transcend reliable?

[GoldenLag]

why not intel 660p 1TB?

 

unless you dont have an m.2 NVMe. its 86$ or something with a coupon code iirc

[TrxBoy93]

Will it work on Ryzen 3700X?

Just grab a Western Digital Blue 1TB or Crucial MX500

It will but the 660p is not great.

This video is complete garbage and is misleading to novice consumers as it gives them unjustified/unneeded scare, it almost feels like Samsung paid Linus to do it behind the scenes.

Always use this one instead which is far more in line with reality:

Ewww, never. Price difference doesn’t command a purchase over their much better MX500.

 

As well, the Samsung 860 EVO is a rip off compared to the MX500. Both perform similarly enough. The WD blue 3D is viable too, but not as good of a bang for your buck since it has less warranty and slightly lower performance. 

 

If if you want NVMe, anything with an E12 controller will be a good choice if you don’t want to go ultra cheap and get the Intel 660p, which isn’t as crappy as Linus describes. Check out how it does on my latest benchmark charts: https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/adata-xpg-sx6000-ssd,6331-2.html 

 

 This is under the assumption that you won’t use the drive for anything too taxing. If you do heavy work, I’ll adjust my recommendation.

I have Samsung 960 EVO 250GB nVme for windows...I just need another 500/1TB for games... I just wanted to know whether I should look for more storage or less storage/Big Brand...Also my motherboard doesn't support two m.2 slot.
