  Getting cheaper by the day.. felt bad when I missed out on the $68 Futu eBay deal recently but this is even better

  is this equivalent to Samsung 860 QVO SSD?

    This one uses Crucial inferior/lower grade TLC NAND (compared to MX500). QVO does have larger dynamic SLC cache, but still mostly QLC NAND.

    • 

      pinkybrain on 11/05/2019 - 09:14

      so which one is better?

      they both are lower grade SSDs.

        I wouldn't recommend either, but if you must get one, 860 QVO because BX500 is DRAMless SSD.

          @netsurfer: Every SSD has its place.

          This will upgrade my 8yo SSD perfectly.

            @Ulysses31: It depends on your needs. For me, this will be the slowest SSD I own if I were to get one.

            My really old SSDs are MLC ones so this would be a downgrade for me. It's okay as a game drive, but 480GB is not enough for games (for me).

              Ulysses31 on 12/05/2019 - 22:35

              @netsurfer: Agreed. I've got prob 40tb of spinning rust. Speed doesn't matter, as its archive.
              Games, download, unrar, OS etc all on SSD. But might whole setup is budget. No point me getting a ferrari for city streets.

  Great for the price. I picked up one of these last time, and under large write loads, you can see it change from writing ~300MB/s to ~3MB/s for a few seconds every GB or so. So performance seems very uneven. Perfect for a game drive, not so good for a system drive.

    Yeah perfect as an extra SSD because Your faster pricier boot drive SSD is too full.
