Hi guys,
I currently own a Crucial M4 128gb on my desktop and am looking to upgrade to a 256gb SSD since I am running out of space. Struggling choosing between these 4 SSD's
1. Crucial M4 256GB
2. Crucial M500 240GB
3. Plextor M5S 256GB
4. Plextor M5 Pro 256GB
I put reliability first above speed. I have heard good stuff about crucial but looking at Newegg and Reevoo the 256 GB of the M4 seems to experience some trouble among folks. Cant seem to find much user reviews about the M500 though. Looking at the Plextor I am more inclined towards the M5 Pro with the increased MTBF and longer warranty but hoping to hear from someone with real world experience.
Side Note: I reside in Taiwan not the US and suppliers here do not stock the Samsung line of SSD's which would have made my shortlist otherwise. Big brands here are Crucial, Plextor, Intel, OCZ, ADATA with regards to SSD's.
Any suggestions or advice would be appreciated greatly!
Thanks
