I'm going to be buying a M.2 SSD however I'm not sure which one to go for, the WD 500GB - https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01LXPD2WB/ref=twister_B01N6NSFJM?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

or the Samsung 500GB 850EVO (I could get for £150) - https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00TGIW1XG/ref=twister_B01HZVL5RS?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

The samsung is more expensive however apparently it's faster, I'm wondering if there is a real difference. On this PC I do mostly gaming and photoshop.

Here is my build - https://pcpartpicker.com/list/ZxXWpb

Thanks!

Do you have a 500GB or 250GB model? Is it enough storage? Thanks
