Sure, here are some solid options for a 512GB or 1TB SSD that fit your needs. The Transcend MTE220S and Kingston A2000 are reliable choices, while the ADATA XPG SX6000 Pro offers good performance. If you're looking for alternatives in the same price range, consider checking reviews on the site you mentioned. Let me know if you need more details!

These options are all solid, the P1 is also solid.

The MTE220S gets decent value for an affordable NVMe storage option. The A2000 stands out among budget NVMe drives, while the KC2000 shares similar tech with other reputable brands. Skip the SX6000 since it lacks DRAM support.

XPG SX8200 Pro offers excellent value for money. Meanwhile, the SX6000 performs poorly—I wouldn’t suggest it. I have no information on the other models you mentioned.

However, the P1 is made of QLC and has a low TBW.

If you intend to use it as a primary storage drive, steer clear of QLC and opt for DRAMless options.

Sure, the SX8200 comes at a higher cost, but is the investment justified?

You're setting up an OS drive. To verify if a drive has DRAM, use system tools like Disk Management or Command Prompt to inspect the hardware configuration.

It matches the SAMSUNG 970 EVO and even surpasses it in certain evaluations, all while offering a significantly lower price. The choice is yours. Personally, I own two 1TB models and am completely satisfied with them.

Check the controller they're employing or, simpler, visit the link provided. Essentially, if the KC2000 matches your budget, choose it. If not, opt for the A2000 instead.
