Hi, everyone! I need some SSD advices for my HP Probook 640g2(intel core i5-6300u, 8gb ram, 500gb hdd, intel hd graphics 520). At this moment, in my system installed HDD(photo 1), which I want to replace with SSD. So, could someone recommend a good ones? It should be 256/512gb, to store there OS, some photos, films, some files and programms, run games. The most important conditions are: low temperature when it works, reliability and durability. Look forward for your replies <3.

M.2 NVMe SSDs are much faster than M.2 SATA SSDs and 2.5" SATA SSDs. You can get an M.2 NVMe and install Windows on it and use the 2.5" hard drive as a data storage drive if you wish.

 

[Edit]

Here're a couple of good M.2 NVMe SSDs with high reviews.
