Which ssd to buy of the 3
Tradescend 370 series 256gb
Kingston v300 240gb
Corsair ls 240gb

No Intel ssd available in market these days.
How's it if I buy a 500gb ssd for my hp pavilion to replace it's hard drive? It's apart from my desktop 256gb ssd that I hv asked earlier.

Corsair LS 240GB is the best one from the given lot the second i would say Tradescend 370 series 256gb (personal tired and tested, great SDD for the price a lot better than the Kingston v300 240gb).

Coming the second question, no need to change the laptop HDD you wont find/notice any diff unless you are doing rendering.

I recently put in a transcend 256gb in my laptop. And it has really sped things up for me.

IMO the best SSD you can get at the moment is the samsung 850 evo/pro versions which i am using currently in my laptop but i doubt you will be able to find it locally i got mine from Amazon.

From the choices you posted i have used the Corsair Force 3 GT SSD and they are fantastic so i would recommend you get the Corsair LS
SSD are perfect for laptops fast boot time snappy performance while opening apps plus you always have a battery in case of power loss so its a win win.

Dont know much about SSD and desktops never used one with it but i do know that loadshedding kills standard hdd's sooner or later but a ssd has no moving parts so maybe its more resilient ? cant say for sure.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
