    In 2016 it's becoming increasingly difficult for typical consumers and even well-informed gaming enthusiasts to pick the perfect solid state drive (SSD) with both high performance and affordability for their data storage needs. While low-cost, entry-level SSDs have been around for several years, the reality was that most of those cheap drives suffered from dramatically reduced performance compared to more expensive drives. PNY aims to change that this year with a pair of affordable SSDs aimed at both casual PC users and hardcore gaming enthusiasts, the PNY CS1311 and the PNY CS2211.

    While both of these drives deliver solid performance and are available in a range of capacities and prices (starting around $50 for the CS1311 in the 120 GB capacity), the real story here is that the type of NAND flash your SSD uses might not be as important as it used to be.
