Which SSD do I buy?

[Chippyz]

I need a 480-512 GB ssd that is not too expensive. But in my country most stuff is expensive and Samsung is way out of my budget.

 

Here are my options:

Apacer Panther AS340 AP480GAS340G - 75$

Western Digital WDS480G2G0A - 76$

Transcend TS480GSSD220S - 78$

Silicon Power Ace A55 SP512GBSS3A55S25 - 80$

Kingston SA400S37 - 80$

ADATA Ultimate SU800 512GB - 83.3$

Transcend TS512GSSD230S - 83.3$

Intel 545s 512GB - 80.9$

 

I want the one that's gonna last and perform good.

Out of that list I would get the Intel, my second choice would be the Western Digital.

 

HOWEVER. I wouldn't get either of those over a Samsung. Take a look at this 500gb Samsung 860 Evo here. That one is a pretty damn good price right now, and Samsung is by far the most reliable SSD brand on the market.

Out of those options, my top three would be (in order from number one to three) the Intel, WD, and ADATA options.

What part of "it costs more in MY COUNTRY" don't you understand?

A pet peeve of mine is members who don't put their location in their profile. Knowing that would make helping people much easier.

This coming from someone who lists their location as "Somewhere over the rainbow"?

The part where most Samsung SSD's of that capacity are upwards of $120-140 and the one I linked was $78, so I hoped it would be cheap enough. On top of that, I'm from the US so I don't have to deal with this shit.

Thank you!

[hello_there_123]

#1 545s, #2 Ace A55, #3 ADATA SU800

SU800 or A55 only if you need to.

 

Also everyone recommending the WD drive either doesn't know it's the Green which is trash or has no idea what they're talking about.
