NVME SSD suggestions?

[Suppersupport]

I am looking for a good 1TB ssd for $100. If that is unrealistic I can adjust.

just go for something like a quality samsung nvme 

something like this if you have a little more money

I would wait for a sale if you can, but if not, here are some options.

Intel 660p -

Unfortunately the only NVMe SSDs at this point are QLC... Just don't get the Silicon Power A60 or similar units, extremely small DRAM cache throttles performance in certain workloads.

The Silicon Power A80 is usually at around $120 if I'm not mistaken.

Lower than that and you're looking at QLC and/or DRAMless drives, which are not optimal unless you plan on using the SSD just for games.
