Which is the better drive?

As title, the Crucial BX100 250gb or the Sandisk SSD Plus 240gb?

According to user benchmarks the Crucial is faster on average but only by arround 13%. As for "Better/Best" they are both good drives. Just go for what is cheaper as I doubt you will notice any difference.

I'd pay the extra £10 for an Evo 850.

Yeah I would too, it's the fastest of the lot.

Faster than a MX200?

The Samsung 850 Evo is faster, provides hardware encryption like the MX200 and has a better warranty (5 years vs 3 years). At similar prices it's a no brainer.

User benchmark has good "real world speed" results here - link

850 evo here too. I don't regret the choice.
