Hi, I'm looking at replacing my 250GB SSD with a larger one, possibly 1 TB, where's the best value to be had at the moment? Edit: Should've said SATA

https://www.aria.co.uk/Products/Storage/SSDs/300GB+-+1TB+SSD/1TB+Crucial+MX500+2.5%22+SATA+Solid+State+Drive?productId=69001&utm_source=uk.pcpartpicker.com&utm_medium=referral

Bought a smaller one of these Crucial drives before so 1tb for £125 is decent.

Great to see the prices going down!

Or have a look through this list;

Any reason to replace the existing one instead of keeping it as a boot drive and using the 1TB SSD for everything else?

There would be if it were NVME.
