Go for crucial instead. Cheaper, better.

I don't know, I just wrote >Samsung because I know some asshat will only read that and write a seething response.
No point in buying SATA SSDs anymore.
Only M.2 nVME SSDs, and traditional hard drives for storage.
>implying NVMe is anything but diminishing returns, especially since most games are programmed for 5400 RPM console loading times
Crucial is not cheaper though for 1TB
>M.2 nVME
Isn't that speed overkill for games?
At least go for EVO. QVO is the cheaper version of EVO which is the cheaper version of PRO.

Maybe but it's not like it costs anymore than M.2 SATA
>using QLC SSDs
nandlets go away.
QVO is shit dont bother
get the EVO version or better
>ssd
no
always use platter drives for high write programs
it's not 2010 anymore buddy, you aren't going to write an ssd to death
games are high write programs??
Why? It's not like M.2 is any faster.
Consoles use 5400 HDDs ? Kek, didn't know. For what purpose.
EVO or bust
Because consoles nowadays are just 2 year old PC components on launch.
Nice try baiting dumbass, we know m.2 is the form factor and not the data interface. Baiting retard! Go back to /g/ or something, loser!
That's not true, they are more expensive
OK, then why use M.2?
Seething anime tranny. :)
suck my dick, ESL beaner, I don't have to explain shit to you.
hop on! hop on my dick! choo choo!
>I don't have to explain shit to you.
I see. Farewell.
>not going for the cheaper version
My HDD just broke, I guess it's just SSD from here on out.
HDD For storage, SSD for everything else.
HDD too noisy
Ok
Post dick or you're chicken shit
>1 TB SSD for games with long loading times (Rising Storm 2, Squad, Arma 3, etc. etc.)
>256 GB SSD bootdrive
>2 TB HDD for storage and games with lower loading times
>1 TB HDD for backups, media, and 10 years worth of shit I've saved on Yea Forums
Feels good.
>Let's just buy a whole new PC to use M.2 drives
>Motherboards only have 1-2 connectors
What is this bullshit? I usually put 5-6 drives in my PCs.
>120 GB SSD for OS and that one game I play
>stream everything else
doesnt the m.2 format have heating issues?
>le highly intelligent passive aggressive animeposting sperg
change the channel this episode has been on repeat for 6 years
You can just put them in any PCIe slot
Yeah my M2 is 50C my SDD is 25C, at idle
And that's with heatsinks, btw
Oh you're right... Maybe I could also buy a pci adapter and put it on an old sandy/ivy PC. I wonder if it's possible to boot like this.
I have Ivy mb with 2x PCIe 3.0 slots
>not putting all of your games on a RAM disk for fastest acces speeds possible and reinstalling them every time you restart your computer
Fucking pleb.
