Or is it just 'avoid Userbenchmark, every other is valid'?

UBM is a massive unreliable meme

Even reddit mocks it

avoid anything that didn't do repeatable tests

tho reddit mocking something does not make it all that true

samsung drives are super reliable, but chances are you will die before you completely write to one and break it. while I can't speak for su800, i imagine by the time you reach the end of its lifecycle it'll be like 2040

Also I need a samsung evo performance because I have a small dick

if you wanted samsung evo performance then just buy nvme

SX8200 is nvme

Adata claims to be on par with Samsong top nvme SSDs

With this one

samsung evo is pretty bad value, i guess they just kinda went off the deep end and didn't bother to match the market price

also quickly checking their https://ssd.userbenchmark.com/Faq/What-is-the-effective-SSD-speed-index/42 does not bring any larger "WHY"s on at least from me

you're not going to notice a difference between sata and nvme ssd's as a home user, _unless_ you're copying sequential files very often

the only use case i can think of with nvme is if you're a content creator and work with very large source files often

I do but not that often

Hence why I'm tending to think of the more 'budget friendly' adata

It's not like everyday, but once every week or more

and when i mean "very large source files" i mean like you just pulled off some 8k footage from your $12k RED camera that has ssds for storage

not like your ~4gb frag video that you record using OBS

I was thinking more along the lines of 10s/100s GB

eh that still doesn't sound demanding enough to use a nvme drive with

i work with 2-20s gb of video files and those are on hard drives

True, but then again, it's not like this 'premium' is gonna cost me that much anyway

and you dont have any reason not to have that speed there incase you need it

specialy if the price is same

and you have free slots etc

From where I live I can get and SX8200 Pro 1TB for 170 deutschmarks, on the other hand a normal 1TB Sata SSD will cost me around 100 deutschmarks

that sounds like a premium of 70 hitlerdollars to me

Sure is, but remember that I have a small dick

For this price tho the SSD is gonna be quite low end, being only TLC and barely reaching SATA 3 top speed

i went to check buildapcsaleseurope for nvme deals and the last post was 5 months ago

aka from what i understand you're fucked

there's always good deals popping up here in the states for storage, especially recently with ssd prices going way down

a month ago su800 was ~$95/1TB, now ive seen it at $90

Well rn there's a truckload of deals on SSDs

And my main SSD is kinda dying rn

(I meant to say in my area of course)

you can look at this, i think it is pretty up-to-date, but you'd have to check prices manually
