Best Option for 1TB SSD

Venoxx

Hey Guys,
I'm looking into upgrading my Storage with an 1TB SSD and came across the Sabrent Rocket (https://www.amazon.com/-/dp/B07LGF54XR/ref=sr_1_2?__mk_de_DE=ÅMÅŽÕÑ&keywords=sabrent%2Bnvme&qid=1581090963&sr=8-2&th=1)
Does anyone have experience with that drive and could tell me if it's worth it, or if i should just shell out the 50 Bucks extra for a Samsung drive.
(Or any other drive for that matter. I'm interested in any suggestion)

Btw my Motherboard is the Asus ROG Maximus VII Hero, so I don't know if I'm getting the full performance out of an nvme SSD.
If not am I better off just getting a Crucial MX500 or similiar? (about the same price as the Sabrent Nvme one)

Any tip is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

From what I have found and seen, they look like good drives.

If you buy large enough SSD to keep it for very long, shell out extra 50 bucks, it'll be worth it. Samsung has one of the best SSD's.
