I have two 250gb ssd: Crucial BX100 and Samsung 850 evo

Which one should I use to host my os and programs and which one should I use to store and play my games?

I´m asking for the optimal configuration:

Are you guys sure? In that case, my next SSD should be crucial as I have a 250GB 850 EVO for OS and other programs and was going to get another 500GB one for games, but it should be crucial? Why?

Well, it shouldn't be crucial. There is no benefits using samsung+crucial. It was what OP mentioned, because he has them already.

You can buy SanDisk, Crucial, Kingston.. or another ssd.. doesn't matter :)
