Gaming build, Need opinions on SSD Manufacturer

[lieutenantfrost]

In the middle of doing my gaming build, need to select an SSD have narrowed it down to the following:

SAMSUNG 850 Pro 256GB - $133
sandisc extreme pro 240 - $120

Not sure which is the better buy in terms of reliability and performance, any feed back or general opinions would be welcome.

Also saw that the SAMSUNG 850 EVO 250GB - $89 is significantly cheaper for the same amount of storage, can't seem to figure out why though.

thanks in advance.

The Samsung 850 Evo gives you the most price/performance/capacity, so it would be my choice. You may even be able to get a 500GB version for not much more than a 256GB 850 Pro..

Go with the Samsung 850 Pro. They're, in my opinion, one of the top manufacturers of SSDs, next to Intel and Crucial.
