£60 SSD

[Guest]

Already asked but answer didn't really help.

Budget is £60.

SSD needs to hold OS and a couple games. 

 

Is this a good option?

The 850 evo is better, but I bet it costs more than 60 pounds

See if you can get a 750 evo, it is the budget option of the 850

Sandisk makes good storage devices.
The X400 for 61, found on that page, has better write speeds and high iops. 
Edit: Oh, but that is currently sold out.

One of the best thing to look at when deciding what to purchase is the 4k IOPs.
That's a measure for performance when the drive has to jump around and piece together data that isn't sequential, sequentail read/writes being rated by what you see as normally advertised for SSD speeds: 540mbs read/write.
Just avoid the Kingston V300 series SSD's.
