Help me pick an SSD

byubi

Hi, this my first time buying an SSD. Here are my options:

 

Adata SSD Premier SP550 240 GB

Sandisk Plus 240 GB

Silicon Power Velox V55 240 GB
Crucial MX300 275 GB

 

All same price, except Crucial is little bit more expensive .

 

Thanks.

1, 2, and 4 are great in my opinion and usage. I would recommend the Crucial unless the price is 20 dollars difference.

Sure you wouldn't shell out relatively little extra money for a huge performance boost with the 960 evo?

The SSDs listed above are the only ones available in stores near me within my budget. Plus I wanna go with SATA because I will stick it in a laptop in the future.
