Samsung 840 Evo 250gb vs Crucial m500 240gb

Hello, again I've created a new thread about an SSD

Which one? Will I notice the speed difference? And is the evo worth the extra £20?

Also I found a quote online from the the Linus Tech Tips forum

- 'It's more important to have an SSD rather than worry about which SSD.'

Do you agree with this?

Thanks.

You will not notice a difference between two different SSDs in terms of performance.

I'm thinking the same thing, that £20 could buy me a new game! I think that maybe more important than milliseconds off my boot time and opening a file, hmm.

Samsung and crucial are both are very reliable companies and along with intel, are the big three in the consumer ssd world that offer the best overall warranty reliability and performance. in synthetics you would see a difference, but your never going to feel the difference. just get whatever is cheaper.
