i got some money spare and i wish to buy some extra SSD storage. but i need help choosing which is best im trying to go best value for $ as 1 of the drives will be used purely for Software installations such as blackmagic davinici resolve and photoshop, 3d max etc aswell as games if i only get 1 ssd. i current own a EVO m.2 512 SSD from samsung that holds my Os and is fitted to my MB and will stay there until it dies
From what i can see and some research done the top ones are. 1. Samsung 2. Crucial 3. kingston But unsure as the only SSD ive ever purchased is my m.2 that does me fine on its own and a OCZ 60gb from like 2012.
Sandisk Extreme Pro is almost identical in performance to a Samsung 850 pro - it just doesnt have the same endurance rating (still a 10 year warranty though) and is 5mb slower on the write - same read and IOPS
Corsair Force LE drives are OK - and are similar to Kingston and Crucial drives. If you want the absolute max specs and a 2.5 inch form factor, then Sandisk or Samsung are the best two. Everything else is slower, but still very fast.
IF you are doing "work" on the ssd, and it will mean a lot of writes, then it would be worth going for the Samsung 950 pro - but you will pay a premium for that endurance.
From the 5 drives you listed above - i would get the BX200 - but all those drives would be about the same.
