Do you possess concrete evidence to support this assertion? I haven't encountered any SSD benchmarking results that validate it.
Yeah except this is a gaming rig, not a video editing rig. And that might have been the case back in the days of mechanical and SATA HDs, but most M2s have very similar read - write specs and use the same controllers. Yes, performance will be minimal in terms of difference, but I'd much rather pay the extra $20 the better drive, you don't want to get a cheap one and have it fail on you.
I agree fully. It's better to invest in reliability than to prioritize speed. They're all quick, but do they really last?
Avoiding compromises and saving a bit of money is a smart choice. It might seem expensive to spend an additional $40-50 on NVMe or PSU, but spreading that cost over 3-4 years makes it much more manageable.
Yes, it might seem appealing to opt for the more affordable option, but there could be hidden costs later. For storage solutions, just as with power supplies, it's wiser to choose established and reliable brands, such as Samsung, WD, Seagate, and others.
