I promised myself to get this if it goes below $100. Just 96 cents to go!

From my knowledge on it, PNY quality is low, while the Crucial MX500 is more or less medium/medium-high tier. That's how I understand it.

How does this compare to the PNY CS900 2TB SATA III for $89.99 with the same read speed and even faster write speed?

I agree with OP that the MX500 is better than the PNYCS900 (and that Crucial is essentially better than PNY). The MX500 is likely among the best options if you want a 2.5" SATA drive (rather than NVMe). I recommend reviewing the following (neither of which I authored):

The MX500 has DRAM and the PNY doesn't, for one thing.

Here's a userbenchmark comparison between the 1TB capacities (no data for the 2TB PNY, unfortunately):

Ordered two. Forget about pny, mx500 is well recognized on the market. Dram. You just can't go wrong with mx500 at this price range

My desktop computer has blazing-fast NVMe to boot but lately started to show that size matters too as its only 240 GB LOL
It is time to get a second HDD that is not a spinning disk. Thanks OP, for posting this deal.

Just keep it. Gas and time worth more than 6 dollars of saving.
