1 500 gb SSD or 1x 120 + 1x 250gb

tupacalypse · Sep 1, 2013

I currently have 2 SSD coming from Newegg a 250 and a 120 but i can get a 500 for the same price plus the extra Space , should i buy 1 500 and put the OS and games or keep them separate sacrificing the extra space?

tupacalypse :

Assuming same quality/manufacturer/product line, a 500 will be marginally faster than either a 128 or 256. Not that you'd actually notice the difference in real world ops, but in theory...faster.
And for the same price? I'd get the 500.

they are both samsung but the 120 is a 840 pro and the 256 is a 840 regular the 500 is also a regular

tupacalypse :

That introduces a little variation into the decision. But in reality, the regular or Pro will last years/decades.

128+256
Easily separate the OS and applications/games

512
A little more space for the same price.

It's almost a tossup either way.
