Recommendations for a SSD?

My 256gb Samsung 840 SSD system drive is getting full up and the page file has transferred itself to another drive. I have moved what I can but there is still an issue.

I am considering getting another drive and wonder what the Steinberg community would recommend?

I feel a bit broke after Xmas at present but wont buy cr8pware.

Any ideas folks?

Samsung 850

Agreed… Samsung EVO 850 is a very good choice.

For an OS drive, pretty well ANY modern SSD will do the job to excess, so just go for the cheapest.

One question though: How are you even getting anywhere near using 250GB on an OS drive?

Good question P:

I run Band in a Box - it’s great for practice, but terribly flakey software, so I was keeping the wav files for the (very realistic) real tracks, on the C drive.

I have now managed to move them, which has freed up 60 gig. Getting rid of an 11 gig page file and a huge ‘system information’ file (that did not report its size) has done the trick for now.

Its interesting that samsungs 3.2 tb ssd has not hit the shops yet
