I am debating between these 2 SSD's
I've read that Samsung SSD's are really good and reliable, but I've read almost the same for Crucial.
Samsung

Crucial

I plan on putting it into an Lenovo y510p gaming laptop and it only supports a single HDD, I wanted to upgrade over my slow 1TB Hybrid HDD of which I am only using about 495GB with everything I'll ever need on it.
Both SSD's seem good and the Crucial seems like an even better deal considering I would get close to the 1TB of space for about $1 less maybe.
I've just read more about Samsung so I know more about them. Which is why I am asking about the Crucial one as well.
Oh laptop spec's so anyone may want to know.
i7-4700mq 2.4GHZ (Turbo to 3.4GHz)
16GB DDR3 Ram
GT 755M 4GB SLI (2x GT755M 2GB)
1920x1080p 15.6" diaplay
No optical drive
I do have a usb 3.0 to 2.5" sata enclosure kit.
Thanks for the help!
Also I'm not for the fastest speeds when they seem to be so close. And can someone verify, I've read the EVO's use shorter life nand (TLC I think) Where as the Crucial uses MLC (I think) which is longer life. I could be wrong, but it would be great if someone who maybe owns one/ both or whatnot could verify this maybe?
