Which SSD manufacturer to choose when upgrading Mac mini 2012?

Good day!
I plan to upgrade to an SSD in my Mac mini 2012. I decided on the amount of memory (250-256 GB), but the question arose regarding the manufacturer. Samsung and Intel drives are often praised. But is it so critical to take an SSD drive from a different, less "famous" manufacturer, which is also often cheaper? For example, ADATA, WD, Sandisk, Plextor, etc.
Could this somehow affect performance and compatibility? Are there any solid-state drives that will definitely not start, or, on the contrary, will immediately work out of the box? Potential pitfalls are interesting.

is it so critical

Take mostly at your own risk. I took a kingston for myself and did not regret it. A friend took adatovsky like, returned the next day.
Many people praise Samsung.

The manufacturer is not that important.

Two weeks ago I installed a 500 gig WD Blue disk in my mini 2012 - everything is fine. Black magic shows around 480 parrots. You can take WD)
