Crucial MX300 vs Samsung Evo 850

[omaer97]

Hi , I will upgrade my macbook pro 2011 HD from HDD to SSD ,
So I went to near shop and I found 2 types of SSD
First is Samsung Evo 850 250 GB for 150 $
Second is Crucial MX 300 275 GB for 120 $

I'm really confused which one to buy , as I can see significant difference for Gb/Price
incase of crucial 0.43 $ per Gb , but incase of Samsung 0.6 $ per Gb .

But I haven't tested any of them in work so I don't know will be there significant difference between their performance or not!

Thank you.

I'm outside US and if I buy it from amazon I will buy customs and shipping makes it more pricy

OK then...
Performance wise, for that price difference in your market...get the Crucial.

It takes a benchmark that splits up a second to tell any difference between the 2 choices. In real life, you couldn't tell the difference. Go with what's cheaper for you.
