Hey everyone! My Toshiba HDD just failed, and I'm looking to get a 2TB SSD for my computer. It's about 8 years old, with an i5-8500 CPU, GTX 1070 Ti GPU, and an ASUS PRIME B360M-A motherboard that has an M.2 slot. I'm hoping to find a durable SSD that fits my budget of around $135. Any suggestions? Thanks a lot!

If you're on a tight budget but still want decent quality, the Silicon Power UD90 could be a good option. Just be cautious because it uses QLC NAND, which might affect durability in the long run.
Given your setup, I recommend checking out the Goodram PX500 or the TeamGroup MP33 Pro. Both should perform well on your motherboard's M.2 slots. Other options include the Patriot P400 Lite and Lexar NM620—great choices for the budget!
Yeah, I've heard mixed reviews on the UD90's durability, so it's something to think about.
