What 240/250GB SSD should I buy?

[Morad Tamer]

hello
I am currently shopping for an SSD at the 250GB capacity ranges and I need it to have respectable write cycles as I want it to stay with me for 5 years at least
I don't know a lot about them So...
What brand is the Best ? (Excluding Samsung more on why here and here TL;DR my treats with them turned out to inform me that they really cheap a lot about their QA and I took a covenant to not buy from them again)
What is TRIM? and should it be concerning me? (Don't really understand it)
and lastly what else do I have to take into considerations?

Crucial is great! MX300.

Crucial is great! MX300.

What about Intel?
They are the exact same price from my local store

Intel has decent SSD's.

Intel is also good.

Trim allows a delete command to be transmitted to the ssd to make a nand block available without the need for a read/rewrite sequence.

It increases the longevity of the ssd.

But, this is really a non issue today with ssd devices.
The ssd will be long obsolete before any heavy desktop user wears it out. Think 15 years.
