Hi folks,
Been a few years since I've been on the forums as I haven't been doing much gaming or hardware changes on my desktop in recent years. I've been running out of space on my SSD which is a Mushkin Chronos Deluxe 240GB (purchased May 2012) so I just ordered a Samsung 850 EVO 250GB to compliment it.
I'm going to wipe the drive and install Windows 10 fresh, the issue I'm having is should I use the 850 EVO or the Mushkin as a boot drive? I assume the Samsung has to be faster given it's 3 years newer than the Mushkin, but I can't find any direct comparisons. I'm not familiar enough with NAND technology to know if maybe the Mushkin is better since it was a "Pro" drive back in the day.
Drive will be running on Intel SATA3 on my Z77 board.
Thanks!
