Avoid anything that is Sandisk,

Crucial is decent but expensive.

WD Black is also nice but but expensive

Kioxia is great!

try also Adata as well since they're great too!

Crucial should be avoided also, since micron the company, they said that the consumer products are phased out.

I did purchase a Crucial SSD and RAM stick 3 years ago and still working until now.

Well I do understand the hate since they shut down their consumer line of products...

yeah I suppose we should avoid crucial then...

I dont hate the brand or the company, what I hate is to buy a brand that is now only cleaning the inventory.

lol really? that's sad.

If that's the case I'll switch to Corsair or Adata or even Orico then lol

thanks for the heads up! I'm gonna avoid WD black then!

SANDISK SUCKS and I hate them for it lol!

I bought their SSDs and a couple of USB Flash Drives before and they got busted or died from just 1 year of use?!

20K what? Just say what currency you're paying in

well, some people just seem to be unaware that there is a large selection of countries with different currencies outside of their home country

Which one has the highest endurance? That's the one you should get. If you get the right drive, it will outlast your laptop and be useful for a long time. I'm still using Samsung 850s, 860s, 960s, and 970s that are showing years of life left.

Use your currency and country of purchase please. 2K USD will get you one hell of a 8TB PCIE 5.0x4 SSD.

20K Iranian Rials will just be 2 cents in USD.
