You could go with the Samsung 860 EVO or Crucial MX500
Similar performance, price and warranty.
Get the one you find at lower price.

Samsung 860 EVO or Crucial MX500. 2.5" format.
Flip a coin between the two.

I was actually looking at getting one of these two. It looks like I would have been right to do so.
Thanks for the help. It is much appreciated as apposed to ASUS. When it come to service, they really SUCK!!!
