Get the Crucial P3 Plus for £128 (was £182)
Otherwise, our coverage of the P3 Plus linked above should tell you all that you need to know. The P3 Plus greatly outperforms the WD Black SN570 SE, our previous pick for this budget PCIe 4.0 category, with its combination of TLC NAND memory and a DRAM-less design providing a winning combination in terms of performance per pound. If you’re using the drive for your OS and/or for gaming, this is an ideal pick, but if you anticipate using it for heavier operations - think video production and other content creation that involves a lot of data - then a design with a DRAM cache will allow for greater sustained performance; something like Samsung’s 990 Pro would be recommended here. That just about does it for this one, so thanks for reading and I’ll catch you for one more deal before I break for the weekend!
