Low Cost Budget SSDs – the top 20 cheapest and fastest storage options

Since we last looked at small, inexpensive SSDs on our sister blog colourmylearning.com, more affordable SSDs have joined the ranks of SSDs from well-known storage manufacturers.

More manufacturers means more competition and even better prices for semiconductor drives – all in all, this is great news for consumers. This is enough to encourage us to reconsider the issue of finding the most cost-effective SSDs for those who want to improve the performance of their desktop or laptop.

What if you increase your storage capacity tenfold? Is it ten times more if you switch from a normal spindle/mechanical hard drive to an SSD? In addition to the main memory, replacing a spindle hard drive with an SSD is the best upgrade for any old machine. It offers significant improvements in the responsiveness, performance and speed of your machine.

Not everyone needs 250 GB, 500 GB or even 1 TB. The price of large SSDs is still quite high and can be exorbitant. But what if you just want to get the performance of the DSS without paying the high costs?

Of course, you can also opt for smaller SSDs with a capacity of 120 or 128 GB. This is not only the cheapest way to enjoy the benefits of DSS, such as B. faster program start and load times, but it also means you can revitalize aging equipment.

For desktop computers, consider installing an operating system on a faster SSD, while an existing hard drive with a spindle can run on a separate SATA channel. Laptops, on the other hand, require a complete replacement of the old spindle drive.

Home and small business servers are also enhanced with cost-effective upgrades, and since you can always keep the existing storage space in a box, there is no compromise on space. Just install the operating system on the SSD and enjoy the improved speed.
