Toshiba OCZ RD400 M.2 256GB VS SAMSUNG 960 EVO M.2 250GB

[knowledge2121]

So I am looking at these two SSD's ... The Samsung specs better than the Toshiba....but they are around the same price.... Which one would you choose ? I am going to use it for compiling code, Virtual box, Browsing the internet ( opening lots of tabs and windows ), opening multiple PDF files, Installing and uninstalling things and opening multiple IDE's ( for Programming) ....

Which one of these two would you choose ? Would you choose one of these or would you go for a lower speced PCIe SSD but with more capacity ?


Any other recommendations ?

256 vs 250 is not enough space difference to worry about.
That's not even a sneeze worth.

Either will work.
At the same price, I'd get the Samsung.

I am not worried about the capacity....Would both perform equally for what I want ? also, Toshiba uses MLC and Samsung uses TLC v-nand.... I hear MLC is better than TLC ?

Well..you specified "but with more capacity".

In the consumer space, MLC vs TLC is irrelevant.
Warranty and reputation. The Samsung wins.

I meant a third SSD which has more capacity but is slower in performance...like a WD or Crucial SSD...

The Crucial MX300 275GB is another good choice.
