imo, whatever is on sale at the time

intel, samsung make the best imo, but that doesn't mean they're always the cheapest/gb or ever the cheapest/gb

people say that realistically you won't notice any difference in SSD loading times (unless benchmarking) regardless of the SSD you get...how valid this is idk, never tested it myself.

that and reliability. that's a main thing i look for in an SSD. samsung has high claims, and intel has a high rep, both last a long time. MLC ftw imo.

crucial is, hands down, the best bang for your buck. high scoring in reliability and speed for the price
