How we score
We build each score from the same spec sheet data for every SSD in our catalog, so you can compare drives fairly — there are no editorial thumbs-up or thumbs-down behind these numbers.
- Play (0–100) — How strong this drive looks for gaming: loading games, patching, and pulling in big game assets quickly. Higher usually means snappier load screens and less waiting.
- Work (0–100) — How well it suits heavy desktop work — saving and moving huge files, editing video, and other tasks where write speed and having enough space both matter. Higher is better for that kind of workload.
- Efficiency (0–100) — How much speed you get for the capacity you are buying. Useful when you want a fast drive that still makes sense in a smaller laptop or a single crowded slot.
- Value score — Where this SSD lands compared with every drive we list, using a blend of the Play and Work scores. Think of it as our overall bang-for-your-buck ranking within our catalog — higher means it sits closer to the top of the pack.
- Rank label — A short word for how that value score feels day to day: Elite (90+), Strong (75+), Solid (60+), Budget (40+), Entry (under 40).
