[SOLVED] 970 evo 250gb or 860 evo 1tb

[gremlin3378]

The 860 evo 1tb coats 130$ right now and i can get the 970 evo 250gb for 78$. Which would be likely to have greater endurance? I plan to install my os on it along with my adobe programs and maybe a few games. Any insight on this would be greatly appreciated.

Having had both, the 1tb 860 evo is the way to go. Much higher capacity for the price at near identical real world speed.

Endurance is a non-issue.
Performance gives a little nod to the 970, but size gives a BIG nod to the 860.

Games won't notice the speed difference, and 250GB isn't enough for the OS, Adobe stuff, and games as well.
