Recommend me an SSD

[yang_nastyman]

Never used an SSD before, planning to get one since my budget allows it.

Currently looking at Samsung EVO 250gb -$165 (from bizgram)

are there cheaper but better SSD at the same price?

You wont see any big performance difference between those 2 ssd. You can only see slightly faster on the evo.

considering both are same price on lazada, wouldnt the evo be a better deal?

Yup. You are right. You can get the evo also since its same price.

U have to get mx100 512gb if u want the speed.

I rather get Cruxial MX100 despite slower speed in benchmark. TLC NAND on EVO is no way to go. Durability does matters.

I avoided the 840 Evo and top-up for a 840 Pro instead.

Samsung 840 Evo has serious performance bug, fix coming October 15 (updated) | ExtremeTech
