Hi, I am looking to uprage my current system with one of those NVIe SSDs. But I have no idea which. Upraging from SATA 3.0 SSD. Just  been loking for one, with bets read and write speeds

So, any quides you think would be helpful.

For the best read- and write-speeds, you need to look for PCIe 4.0 NVMe - drives, like e.g. the Gigabyte 2TB AORUS NVMe at 500€.

If it's for gaming, an NVMe-drive won't make that much of a difference from a SATA-drive. For video-editing and other similar tasks that utilize storage heavily, an NVMe-drive would make more sense. Also, you didn't say anything about the size you'd be looking for, like e.g. the Intel 660p 1TB or bigger is a good, budget NVMe-drive suitable for games and similar not-very-write-heavy tasks, but the 500GB 660p isn't worth buying -- the size of the drive affects its performance.

 

The 1TB 660p is at 145€ at Jimm's -- https://www.jimms.fi/fi/Product/Show/144558/ssdpeknw010t8x1/intel-1tb-660p-series-m-2-nvme-ssd-levy-1800-1800-mb-s-retail
