hello

 

this question has been asked a million times by people looking for the same or similar things but i just dont feel like spending a year of my time searching thru all the threads and topics to find what i am looking for when i need an answer within the next month.

 

what i would like to know is what are the best SSDs on the market? i am looking for 2 specifically, the first being for my OS and the other being for everything else. so the OS one doesnt need to be 4TB since that is all it will be holding but the other one can be any size.

 

thanks for any and all help.

 

not all my current specs but the important ones

 

MOBO: MSI z370 gaming plus

PSU: EVGA supernova 1000 G+

GPU: EVGA 2070 super FTW3 ultra

CPU: intel i7 8700k

That's not a simple question to answer. You're fine going with just about any reputable brand's SSD that has the specifications and performance you're looking for.

 

My general preference is SAMSUNG & Intel SSD's but Kingston has some good stuff along with the likes of Corsair, Sabrent, and Crucial.

 

There are more good brands but those are off the top of my head.

and i wasnt looking for a simple answer. more of like what you said. you have your brands you like so i was going to take those and search them. i currently have a 2TB HDD in my computer that has everything on it so i was looking for something small to move the OS to and then everything else to a bigger SSD so i will have plenty of storage for the future.
