Best Budget SSD? (~$200)

Ant Vo · May 27, 2016

Hello Tom's Hardware community. Currently, I am looking for an SSD that is about around one terabyte large as well as around $200. So far, I have found these three options:

OCZ Trion 150 [Link]

ADATA SP550 [Link]

SanDisk Ultra II [Link]

These are the SSDs I have found so far that meet my criteria. My question is, is any of these SSDs superior compared to one another that would make it a better pick? Also, are there any SSDs around my price point that I am missing? Thanks in advance.

Of the three. I think the OCZ Trion will have slightly better performance. You might also consider the PNY CS1311, which uses a Phison controller. They are all relativley close in performance, so it might just come down to price and warranty.

I maintain an ssd database listed in a sticky at the very top of this forum section. Here is the link:

Scroll down to the SATA 3 6Gb/s section where you will find the brands and models you mentioned along with many other brands and models. The database provides basic information (including capacity) and links to technical reviews. Follow the links to the technical reviews. The reviews are divide into two sections - English language reviews and reviews in many other languages. This is strictly a hobby so there is no advertising.
