Samsung 970 EVO Plus Series SSDs vs Mushkin Reactor SSDs

The Samsung SSD 970 EVO Plus 2TB impressed reviewers from a large number of trusted sources that conduct reliable hands-on testing, including Android Central, MakeUseOf, Techradar, Windows Central, and TechSpot. It performed great in their respective roundups - it was named "Most modern motherboards have an M.2 slot, which is required for this SSD, but if you manage to install this module, you'll be enjoying read and write speeds of 3500MB/s and 3300MB/s, respectively. It's insanely fast, and the included five-year warranty only adds to the list of factors that make you disbelieve the price. Like most SSDs available, the higher the capacity, the more you'll be paying out, but it's worth it." by Android Central, "Best value" by MakeUseOf, and "Ranked 3 out of 9" by Techradar. Earning that much praise from such reliable sources is a good sign that the product is worth the money.

Taking a look at the Mushkin Reactor SSD 500GB, we found that it hasn't managed to perform well enough to earn a spot in any Internal Hard Drive roundups done by sources that conduct their own, high-quality, hands-on testing. That alone makes it difficult to recommend.
