SSD

[Jelly Boy]

I am looking at and SSD for my gaming computer. I want to install the Adobe Suit on it. Well the people that made my computer (Chillblast), have recommended the: Samsung 850 EVO 250 GB 2.5 inch Solid State Drive - Black.

Is there any other drive any of you would recommend, here's my PC: https://www.chillblast.com/chillblast-fusion-jumbo-gaming-pc.html

 

 

Thanks A lot,

Jonny.

Go for 860 EVO, it's newer and costs couple pounds less.
If you want to save some money MX 500 is great option as well.

any new ssd  model is good. from the last couple years. get what ever is cheapest at the capacity you want. probably adata, they usually are the cheapest. there is no durability or even speed benefit on the more expensive brands. it's pretty much the same. samsung is just more popular because they know the big name

As @JuztBe mentioned, the 860 evo is a little cheaper without sacrificing any performance.

So a $10 difference, in reality, it doesn't matter which one you go for, $10 difference isn't too much to worry about.

 

Or, you can jump up to a 500GB SSD (https://pcpartpicker.com/product/ft8j4D/crucial-mx500-500gb-25-solid-state-drive-ct500mx500ssd1) that isn't much more in terms of the cost but is worth it if you think you need the extra storage for your OS and other programs
