Looking for a SSD

[XPGHawk]

So my primary drive, a WD 500GB black is about to die any day now. It has been on 24/7 for the past 9 years and through many windows upgrades. Anyways now that I'm in a position where I need a new primary drive. Was thinking of getting a SSD as my primary/boot drive to replace the WD Black Just so you guys know, I have 3tb of extra storage so thats not a worry. I was hoping to get advice on a good SSD choice. I don't really know what size or manufacture or really anything.

Thx in advance and sorry if I have left out a detail, do ask and I'll answer to the best of my ability and knowledge.

Really, depending on budget you need to look no further than a Samsung 840 evo or 850 pro.

What's the difference between the two?

There are some marginal performance improvements with the 850, but it really depends on the price where you live.

Living in Germany currently but I am going to back to Canada for a week in Feburary, so Canada is also a place where I can buy. I'm originally from Canada so I know where to go.

Look at prices from those two places, I don't know where to start looking for resellers in either of those two countries.
