Any recommendation for a cheap budget ssd? Budget around RM100. Want to upgrade my girlfriend's 2006 mac pro.

I have a spare 250GB 2.5 Samsung 850 as I've upgraded to a nvme ssd in my mac pro but no way I'm giving that haha

Have 2 models in mind. Kingston A400 or the Lite-on MU3. Both 120GB, both under RM100


EDIT: Mac pro as in the tower mac pro. It'll run on sata 2

sata 2, got AHCI? if no ACHI that SSD will be slow on sata 2. Probably 50Mib/s faster than a HDD. haha

My 850 used to get 250MB/s writes and 260MB/s read on sata2. Basically maxing out the sata 2 bus
