Need help picking SATA SSD

[Birblover12]

I have a Dell Inspiron 3670, in which I have a 1TB HDD and a 512 GB M.2 NVMe Drive already. I have 1 SATA pin slot left on my proprietary motherboard. I find I need a bit more storage for games and such, so might as well get a SATA SSD.

 

I found these two drives, not sure of how good they are:

 Amazon.com: SP 512GB SSD 3D NAND A55 SLC Cache Performance Boost SATA III 2.5" 7mm (0.28") Internal Solid State Drive (SP512GBSS3A55S25) : Electronics

Amazon.com: Lexar NS100 512GB 2.5” SATA III Internal SSD, Solid State Drive, Up to 550MB/s Read (LNS100-512RBNA) : Electronics

 

Alternatively I could get a PCIe M.2 adapter and look into getting another m.2, but I'm very unfamiliar with those so I haven't really looked into it at all.

 

I'd like to spend no more then $40 or so, since I could easily get HDD storage at that point. If anyone has any other suggestions for SSDs I'm open to them.

AS long as you have a solid backup plan, it doesn't really matter what drive you buy, but personally speaking, I've used SP drives before (like the one you linked) and I have no issues with them.
