One thing that always tricks everyone is: SSD's have write and read speeds. Make sure your get the fastest write speed and read speed as possible. There are some drives with read speeds of 530mb/s with only 130mb/s write speed. Write speed is where most of the performance comes in. In other words you will access files and load programs quickly, but when you start copying files to your SSD it will be a slower process. I bout a Kingston Hyperx SSD, read speeds of 555mb/s and 510mb/s write speed. Kingston make server memory and they have been around for a long time. They make quality products and you wont be dissapointed. http://www.kingston.com/en/ssd/hyperx/
