This will be my next upgrade. Since its only for Steam games, reliability and warranty are more my focus than speed. Price is a concern and looking around the $220 or lower range.

960GB-1TB

You are not getting 960 to 1TB for $220. Those drives are upwards of 500

Hello Sweetie...

 

@Wingfan, the Mushkin would be my recommendation. Avoid anything with TLC NAND like the plague, unless you want your lightning-fast game drive to be slower than a WD Black within six months.

I enjoy buying junk and sinking more money than it's worth into it to make it less junk.
