If you were to load just these three games, the 500GB SSD drive would already be fully occupied. You may be thinking at this moment, why not simply install the game on an HDD disk, where you can get a 2 TB disk for just over \u20ac50. Today's games need SSD speeds more than ever to load textures and instances faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you played the PC version of The Last of Us Part 1, and if you downloaded it to your HDD, you started pulling your hair out after just a few seconds of playing. The game could pause right in the middle of a cinematic scene and display a notification that textures are being loaded. Extremely annoying. If you loaded it on an SSD, it was much more relaxing to play (aside from being chased by zombies at every turn).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Below we have collected some good SSD candidates<\/strong>, which offer solid capacities and write\/read speeds for little money. The links will take you to the website Amazon<\/a>, and with each disc you have to add postage to the price. <\/p>\n\n\n\n If you are an Amazon Prime subscriber and live close to the Italian or Austrian border, you can avoid postage by sending packages to the nearest post office or Amazon packet machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Although we have written up to 500 GB, in this category we will focus entirely on drives with 500 GB capacities. Smaller capacities simply do not make sense to us from the point of view of the relationship between price and capacities\/capacity, if we take into account that the difference between 256 GB and 500 GB can be only a few euros.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Kingston NV2<\/a> it is certainly not among the best SSD drives. Although it is a drive based on the fourth generation of PCIe 4.0, its write\/read speeds are below average or more at the level of the third generation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n However, for this money, it can be a good secondary drive, and due to its compactness, you can also insert it into a laptop or computers with limited space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The price<\/strong>: 29,9 \u20ac<\/p>\n\n\n\n Capacity<\/strong>: 500 GB<\/p>\n\n\n\n Read\/write speeds<\/strong>: 3,500 MB\/s<\/p>\n\n\n\n Additionally<\/strong>: You get 1 more month of Adobe Creative Cloud free in the CD set<\/p>\n\n\n\n If we compare the two SSDs, they have very similar speeds, although there is a generation gap between them. WD Blue<\/a> is a representative of the third generation, which can boast of a good price-performance ratio. It has a smaller SLS cache and doesn't prove to be the most consistent in write speeds. But it has a 5-year warranty, a free one-month trial of Adobe Creative Cloud and much better speeds than any HDD or SATA SSD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The price<\/strong>: 53,99 \u20ac<\/p>\n\n\n\n Capacity<\/strong>: 500 GB<\/p>\n\n\n\n Speeds<\/strong>: 7,000 MB\/s (read), 3,500 MB\/s (write)<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sabrent proved to be one of the most reliable brands in recent tests. Sabrent M.2 NVMe SSD Gen 4<\/a> is a true representative of SSD drives that have made the transition to PCIe 4.0. This is the drive where you will experience the speed jump of the new data bus for the first time, provided of course you have a motherboard that supports the new technology. If you stick with PCIe 3.0 for now, then you can expect half the advertised speeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 1 TB is already a relatively generous capacity, which will be enough to install quite a few games that like to swallow gigabytes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The price<\/strong>: \u20ac42.90 (currently reduced from \u20ac99.9)<\/p>\n\n\n\n Capacity<\/strong>: 1 TB<\/p>\n\n\n\n Speeds<\/strong>: 3,500 MB\/s (read), 3,300 MB\/s (write)<\/p>\n\n\n\n For many years, Samsung was considered one of the most reliable and popular SSD disk manufacturers. However, loneliness at the top and complacency have caught up with them in recent years. The competition has not rested and today has the same or even better range of SSD drives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Samsung SSD 970 EVO Plus<\/a> but it is with the present a price of just over \u20ac40 for 1 TB<\/strong> still a very good buy. The speeds are suitable for the PCIe 3.0 bus, i.e. up to 3,500 MB\/s. But you can also choose 2 TB capacity<\/a>, which for just over \u20ac90 is also a very good purchase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The price<\/strong>: 85,99 \u20ac<\/p>\n\n\n\n Capacity<\/strong>: 1 TB<\/p>\n\n\n\n Speeds<\/strong>: up to 7,000 MB\/s (read), 5,300 MB\/s (write)<\/p>\n\n\n\n Compatibility<\/strong>: PlayStation 5 and PC<\/p>\n\n\n\n SSD drive WD_Black SN850<\/a> made the list mainly because of its dual compatibility with the PlayStation 5 console and PCs. Since it is an officially supported disc by Sony, you can insert it into your console without violating the terms of the warranty. It's faster than the default PS5 drive, and you can easily insert it into your computers as well. The price is slightly higher mainly due to the newer data bus and the fact that it is officially licensed for use in PS5 consoles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The price<\/strong>: 139,99 \u20ac<\/p>\n\n\n\n Capacity<\/strong>: 2 TB<\/p>\n\n\n\n Speeds<\/strong>: 7,100 MB\/s (read) and 6,600 MB\/s (write)<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sabrent Rocket NVMe 4.0<\/a> is an all-in-one package. It's fast, efficient and durable, plus it looks great and is affordable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"The](\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/samsung-memory-j9gNPjxVmi0-unsplash-1-1024x683.jpg\")
