Nice but just 240gb it’s too smaller already.
Maybe you can try to look from crucial mx500 just TOP up a bit only

Can try to look at Kingspec from AliExpress that is cheap and good too

i am just looking for a small and cheap one for my old laptop. just surf net, play l4d2 and watch videos maybe.

got nvme for my desktop already.

Which is the better NVME SSD to buy, AData or Crucial?

Just ordered adata sx8200 pro 512mb as boot n app drive

If there is a cheap 1tb nvme coming(maybe Intel 660p or crucial p1) , will consider get 1

Actually, I'd rather limit a single NVMe M.2/SATA SSD to boot drive for OS, I've seen others buy a 1TB SSD and partition it to 2 parts (one for OS and one for storage). I'd rather have a 256GB NVMe M.2 SSD just for OS, and bigger capacity SSD (be them NVMe M.2 or regular 2.5" SATA SSD's) for storage (games, or other stuff).

That's why I have a 256GB NVMe M.2 SSD just for OS and other relevant programs, and separate SSD's for games. Load times between SATA SSD's and NVMe M.2 SSD's is neglible at best, but difference in load times between SATA SSD and platter HDD is quite noticeable. I mean, for Metro Exodus, my game levels would often load a fair bit before Artyom can finish his monologue.

...

With an NVMe drive, there is no real advantage to a separate OS partition. I use the same NVMe drive for OS and programs, with data kept on SATA SSDs and HDDs.

The important thing is to keep data on a separate drive (or less desirably, separate partition).
