Hi all,
I am looking at buying a new ssd for my setup. I have narrowed it down between the Crucial M500 240gb and the Samsung 840 EVO 250gb which I found for the same price of £125 each.
I have been doing quite a bit of reading about the matter (still far from being an expert). I have heard that the Samsung has better controllers and is ever so slightly faster, at that margin not an issue.
The only thing I am wondering about now is the power loss prevention in the M500. Is it a major? I am basically tossing up between an extra 10gb and the power protection.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks
My setup is :
i5 4670k
Asus Gryphon z87
8gb Crucial Tactical Tracer
Asus HD7770
2tb WD Caviar Blue
