Hello,
Guten Tag
Finally looking to step into the world of SSDs as storage.
A few questions below if anyone wouldn't mind giving an answer.
Is it worth separating windows from everything else on to a separate SSD?
depends on other workloads of your system drive, i wouldnt do it to separate windows from games.
but if you're planning to have other tasks that are disk i/o intensive you can go for a second drive
SATA or PCIe3.0?
Basically i would say SATA,
if you dont plan to use SLI/Xfire you could go for PCIe, but it wont affect your gaming/office performance..
Best brand value for money?
samsung 850 evo
Best brand for quality?
Samsung 850 PRO or Intel 750 Series
Don't need anything above 500gb as I've got 3TB of normal hard drive storage.
Any help and suggestions would be much appreciated:)
personally i wont buy ocz drives anymore (3 of 5 of my ocz ssd died in 2 years...)
all my actual ssds are intel (diffrent models) but i want to test a samsung pro 850 or 950 in the future
