Need to expand my game storage. Looking for a 2TB or higher SSD. 

Suggestions?

Ryzen 7 5800X3D, Corsair H105, Gigabyte x570 Aorus Elite, Corsair Vengeance 32GB 3600MHz, EVGA RTX 3070Ti FTW3, Samsung 850 Pro / WD SN850 / OCZ Trion 150

 

ASUS MG279Q, Corsair Carbide 275R

m.2 or 2.5? pcie or sata

 

660p/p1 are reasonble qlc drives.

 

mx500 and wd blue are good sata ssds.

 

Those would be my pick for cheaper ssds

 

And plenty of higher end nvmes, but will make almost no diference.

SATA SSD. M.2 would be a waste for my needs.  Sorry, shold have been more specific.

A 2tb SSD is like $200, any reason why a HDD wouldn't work?

Preference. No spinners for a few years.

I mean might as well get a m.2 nvme if you can, simmilar cost, and slightly faster, and lower overhead aswell

For a SATA SSD it would be ~$220 I would recommend this drive

 

For a NVMe SSD this one is only slightly more expensive, but a lot faster, but still a low end NVMe drive.
