Hi everyone, so I am deciding between these two SSD's to be the main drive inside my laptop. Since it is in a laptop it will be the only drive in there and in terms of reliability, is Samsung and Intel at the top, or is one higher than the other?

Samsung 840 EVO 250GB

Intel 730 Series 240GB

I can get both for pretty much around the same price, so which one out of those two do you guys think would be the best choice?


Thanks!!

Thanks for your answer, I actually was leaning towards Samsung but just for future references, Intel is also a good brand isn't it?

And in terms of performance am I going to notice any real world speed differences when using the Intel 730 and the Samsung 840 EVO?

I ask because the Intel 730 is more expensive than the Samsung.
