i'm seeing very little difference between the Crucial MX500 500GB 2.5 SSD and the Samsung 870 Evo 500GB. Except "deep queue mixed IO" but that doesn't sound relevant for my usage: web, casual gaming, future lite video editing, databases. I won't lose any sleep over how many TB of writes either of these will get over the years.
I've read random mixed IO and deep queue speeds are not important for general use. Also read on one site the Samsung gets ten times the "random read" IOPS vs. the Crucial but several other sites show no difference really. I could check the manufacturer's sites but ...... Would you think the Samsung is worth $10 more?
Thanks,
