Which SSD to choose?

Go to solution Solved by -rascal-,

Out of the four, the ADATA SP600 would be the better performing.

Of course, as @ZM Fong mentioned, there are better performing SSD's available.

However, if you are limited to these SSD's due to cost, ADATA SP600.

 

Just an example, ADATA SP600 vs Kingston UV400:

None of them is good...Any other options?

I believe that there are better options at the same price range.

I  had bad experience with low-end SSDs (not in performance, but in life expectancy) so I restrict myself to these 3 brands:

- Samsung: 850 EVO, 850 Pro for high end

- Crucial: MX300 is really at a good price. MX200 was awesome

- Intel: if price drop. Those are the most durable SSDs I know.

 

If you want to stick to your list, I'd get the Sandisk but I haven't tried the Adata.
