QUOTE(Rainings @ Nov 23 2018, 04:15 PM) is this budget SSD good? planning to get one to store some daily games for the loading speed. It is really cheap compared to WD and SD. When you are used to old 28 seater school busses (HDD drives), even the Perodua Kenari (A400) feels luxurious though smaller. Easier to park, drives around fairly well. That sort of comparison. Crucial MX500 is like... Honda City... value for money Samsung 860 Evo SATA is like... a Toyota Camry... pricey, faster and classy and the 970 Evo NVMe is like Ferrari 438 Italia... different class of speeds, with smaller seating space This post has been edited by mbr: Nov 23 2018, 04:56 PM |

QUOTE(Rainings @ Nov 23 2018, 08:51 PM) Crucial mx500 better you mean because it has DRAM? i am eyeing for A400 because of the pricing hehe, not still searching for other brands tho. i only plan to get one SSD drive purely for game storage. Crucial has 512mb cache I think, depending on model. You are right, if you only want for game storage, the dram may not play that big a role |

QUOTE(GGikhwan @ Nov 28 2018, 09:58 PM) How about patriot burst ssd. Their pricing seems to be pretty similiar to the A400. It does have a small dram cache. But I propose going straight to crucial mx500. |

QUOTE(wanttobuylaptop @ Nov 29 2018, 03:33 PM) bro, u are dealing with Amazon. if the items does not reach you by 3rd DEC or earlier, they will immediately ship you a new one with 2days delivery, and you can return the original order with Amazon reimbursed all of the shipping cost, and maybe extra for you hassle. Or, if you choose to wait, i am pretty sure your shipping charges will be refunded. Can I keep both? lol |

QUOTE(wanttobuylaptop @ Nov 29 2018, 08:04 PM) no u cant lol i dunno if you notice that we will not have to key in cvv2 when we make the payment.. Means they will just charge me for 2, right? I don't mind second one without the shipping fee... thus resale here in malaysia for RM 850 also will be profitable |
