Hello, noob here. First time in Tom's hardware forums. I'm looking forward in meeting new people here :D

So on to my question. I have a Lenovo Y500 laptop (not SLI) and I wanted to imrove it's speed.
Buying a new 2.5" SSD would be nice but I'm quite broke here.
So I figured that imroving my 32GB SSD to 256GB and installing OS would be much more cheaper choice.

The SSDs that I'm interested in are:

Samsung 840 (500GB) or Samsung 840 Evo 500GB

Plextor M5M PX-256M5M

I can go with the 2.5" ones but if I do I would <Language> to survive for at least a week :(
 


Get the Samsung EVO. Great product!
