Cheaper alternative than 850-EVO SSD?

snortings

Hi,

 

Looking to build a system, don't really feel like spending the extra $ for the 850-EVO, but I don't want a shit one.

 

Looking for a 250GB SSD that has very similar performance compared to an 850-EVO but cheaper.

 

I'm Australian so if you could find it on PCPartPicker (Australian Website) that would be great. 850-EVO is $135AUD. http://au.pcpartpicker.com/product/3kL7YJ/samsung-internal-hard-drive-mz75e250bam

 

Cheers.

Free delivery.

 

Or 275gb $145 delivered.

Completely missed the point of this thread.

Sandisk seems to be the SSD of choice for LTT viewers that need something cheaper than samsung.

Did you factor in delivery? if you really want to save 30 bucks buy a sandisk drive.
