I am looking to buy a ssd for my laptop, I am looking at around 500gb, what are some good choices.

Follow your posts please.

 

Different SSd's for different purposes.

 

I prefer intel 730k's for sensitive data that I really don't want to lose.

Samsung drives for performance.

Crucial for budget.

 

There's other manufacturer's getting good reviews ATM, but these are the one's I'm personally familiar with, and what I use them for.

Crucial BX100? I haven't had one, but the reviews are good, and for the price I think it offers a really great value for money.

I've also been looking for a 500gb SSD lately, and initially I was gonna go with Samsung 850 Evo, but after I found out about the BX100, I think I might change my mind and get the BX100 instead.
