Hi,
I'm looking at adding storage to my current PC. I already have a 500gb Seagate hard disk but it only has about 40gb remaining, rather than buy a 1tb disk, I figured I'd finally make the transition to a SSD + HDD setup without having to fork out more for extra mechanical storage.
I'd like to have the absolute max speed available to me but I wanted to know, is there a noticeable difference in speed when it comes to using SSD's for general desktop use and some gaming (that is between Crucial M500 and Samsung 840 Pro).
I've also looked at the Samsung 840 evo but it's sitting dead centre in terms of price so is I'd like to ask: Is the extra £50-60 worth it to get a Samsung 840 Pro over a Crucial M500?
(I'd also be interested in any other suggestions as to good choices of SSD to consider).
Thanks for the support, have a good day.
