Wait so the patriot one is fine the 180 one had shit reviews

The GM7000 is a very good drive with DRAM cache and has better performance than the others (not that it matters for games); its only problem is that the IG5236 controller will quickly die if there is no heatsink. What exactly do you mean with "shit reviews"?

One review was bad and all the others Js look fake

I never take Amazon reviews seriously. Anyway, the two bad ones look as if they did not use a heatsink, which happens for most people because Acer decided to not include one. (This might be the reason why Amazon UK wants to get rid of them for cheap.) With a heatsink, it will be fine. But it's your choice.

Cheap is easy. You want cheap and something that meets you needs/wants. What are you mostly doing with this computer/drive? I'm not the one who will find the drive but that person may appreciate more info.

I’ll be just using it to store games as I’ll only be gaming
