  is PNY a good brand for SSDs? Compared to Crucial, Intel, ADATA, WD and Samsung etc? Reliable too?

    I've had a few, and they've been faster and far more reliable than Samsung. USB drives too.

    But my experience is a sample size of one.

  In a standard use case, good for reads, good for installs, mediocre to shitty for everything else. Would probably be a decent value point for gamers, but read the reviews to understand it for your individual high-end use cases extend far beyond that.

    Not sure where you get “mediocre to shitty” from those reviews hehe.

      Sustained and sequential read are mediocre, and relatively speaking random write falls off a cliff.

  I'm in the market for a storage upgrade.

  Currently got a 250GB SATA SSD and a 1TB HDD.

  Definitely gonna say goodbye to HDD forever now. Was thinking of going 500GB NVMe with a 2TB SATA SSD. But I actually wouldn't mind going just 2TB NVMe, if only to save the hassle of having multiple drives (the boot drive tends to be the C drive and things get saved there by default, which is restrictive on the smaller drive). The cost difference really doesn't bother me too much, if it means an extra hundred or two.

  Just not sure on the performance of this NVMe.

  Appears to be a Phison E12 drive with TLC so should be pretty decent. I suspect most people would be pretty happy with this drive unless they are doing sustained read/write.
