okay i'm on a budget build and i know how much an ssd can really help your build! What i'm curious about is, What is the minimum sized ssd i can get just for windows 7 home premium? Also what brand and what is the cheapest for price:proformance ratio?
 
If you are only installing one of the Microsoft Windows operating systems and nothing else, then a 64GB SATA 3 6Gb/s solid state drive is sufficient.

I normally recommend Samsung because of their proven track record. Crucial, Intel, and Plextor are also worth considering.

I maintain the ssd database listed in the sticky at the very top of this forum section. Here is the link:
