Hi, would like to seek some advise from u guys..

Hmm currently I had a combo of 256gb WD SN 730 and 2tb firecuda hdd at my laptop. Yet I had another 512gb WD SN550 sleeping at my drawer..
Is it okay to replace my SN 730 to SN 550? Or just maintain like that? Any suggestions? Thanks

why waste bthe sn550? in some cases it even outyperforms the sn750.

I'm thinking to clone /fresh install on SN 550 and keep the SN730 as backup but then as SN 550 is a dram-less, not sure about SN 730. So not sure how the performance as an OS boot drive..

Since today 7.7 sales. I plan to upgrade my office old lappy. Is MX 500 500gb selling at RM288 is it good buy? Or Samsung Evo 860 500gb RM329?

Either the Crucial or the Samsung should do, just pick the one that is cheaper icon_idea.gif

Bought the Crucial 1tb.. RM487 guess much more value for money compare with the 500gb

Still wanna ask.. how the performance on WD Blue SN 550? Will it stutter as the ssd is dramless?

not really stutter, i don't know why people describe dramless SSD will stutter, there were slower storage device that does not stutter, just being slow.

I can play my game over network storage, the game does not really stutter, just super long loading time, that's all

Guess i try give a try on the WD SN550 for OS boot drive..as I plan to replace SN 730 and keep it as backup.

did you read the new SN550 dramless? it is one of the fastest dramless SSD.

Hmm fast or not can't really compare with their own WD Black.. as it read is 2400mb yet the Black is 3500mb. Read some article.. SN 730 is quite new in SSD market, not much info on it.. as i know is more or less. It is much like the Black SN 750.

I didnt know that Lenovo legion laptop is bundle SN730 inside.. else I won't waste money to buy the Blue.

Yup. Modern warfare + warzone actually  same game diff modes in a single download. Was gonna buy 500gb ssd bit after seeing this i got a 1tb. Because red dead redemption 2 is like 100++ GB too. You left a tiny bit for everything else. Cs:go is around 20Gb. Therefore i do not see the point of 250gb anymore.

Bet 250gb usually mainly just for OS will do.. ya.. doubt that nowadays game hardly fit in 250gb..
