I'm planning to upgrade my current m.2 NVME 1TB setup by adding another 1TB 2.5" SSD to store games (Steam, Origin etc).
What's a good 2.5" SSD 1TB brand out there? Specifically value for money ones. Thanks LYN!

QUOTE(sHawTY @ Feb 3 2021, 10:44 AM) Get 2TB instead. Then you won't have to worry about running out of space Unless you're the type who just install lots of games to make it seems like your PC has a lot of games ready to be played but most of the time you don't actually play all of them  Haha. Games collection are quite large, especially the EA Play games (Currently playing a lot of sports games). Not including personal & family pictures / videos as well. 2TB might be required, but looking at the current pricing, not much of a different getting 1TB now and then adding another one later. I think so? Or am I not making any sense haha.

QUOTE(zorbyss. @ Feb 4 2021, 12:33 AM) For NVME and value, How about SX8200 Pro. Some might worry about the change of slower controller. I took a leap of faith with the 2TB, fortunately it came with the original controller. Heard that it affect the 1TB model though. What do you think if I upgrade my current 1TB NVME to SX8200 Pro 2TB? Then the current 1TB NVME put in a casing as an external drive?
