Hi, Which M.2 SSD is the most reliable and has the most lifetime(see from reviews) and fastest(the storage capacity does not matter):
The one which would work the longest would be the one I need(see reviews, I do not want the one which has reviews saying things like: "Not working after a few months")
Crucial P1
Intel 760p
Patriot VPN100
Edit: Samsung 970 Evo Plus
If there are better one with a cheaper price, please tell me

You need to look at true reviews of SSDs, not just NewEgg/Amazon "reviews".
While a lot of 'stopped working' reviews are not a good sign, one off "reviews" can't really be trusted - you don't know if someone loaded defaults in the BIOS (or lost power etc), which then changes the boot order. Too simplistic to trust some people in those types of "reviews" (or comments sections etc).

Now those are vs the Intel 660p, not 760p, so things will have changed some.

"The one which would work the longest would be the one I need "

And what would you be using it for?
In what system?
With what other drives?
How much drive space do you need?

"Longevity" is not really a concern, especially for a single drive. If it dies before the warranty period (unlikely), then you get a new one.
And given proper care (don't fill it up too much), any of those should last years.
