I was looking at ssds for my laptop around the middle of last year. My choices were restricted to Intel, Samsung or crucial due to a slim bay. I ended up picking the Intel, but here's a summary of what I found: Intel: good but expensive Samsung: good apart from the massive power consumption (many saw it use twice as much power as other ssds) Crucial: avoid. Very unreliable, some even had them fail, got them replaced and failed again in the same year.
