I want an SSD and I only need it for my OS and startup programs and other desktop applications games or movies will be on my 1.5TB. So is 60gb enough for all the updates and necessary programs. If it is I only have $100 right now so I was thinking the 64 Gig Sandisk SSD SATA III
I s a 60 gb ssd enough?

It's not enough, I run an win 7 stripped down no applications but steam I have maybe 1/4 of my games installed and I am down to 25GB on a 120GB SSD so I must advise against. If you were only planning on installing the OS then you loose the big load time boosts in games (borderlands 1/2/the crysis series ect)
120 is the minimum I can recommend, I wish I would have gotten 256 but my Sam840 was 99 bucks.

Like they've said before. It is enough barely. I have a 64GB its enough to have windows booting up with great speed. but you wont be able to store much at all on it. everything will have to go on Regular HD. either way though i find the functionality of just having windows and keeping everything else on Hd fine for now but plan on upgrading in the future. my advice wait until you can get a bigger one.

Barely!
Ive got a 64gb in one of my htpc's along with a few apps, (avg, flash, pdf reader, cd ripper, dvd ripper, powernow.) still have plenty of room left on it. (about 20gb last I looked to that would make it about 10gb usable (you don't want to fill an ssd))

Nope you will regret getting that low of storage; Think about after installing your OS and some programs you're already pushing space, with SSDs you do not want to be over 80% of storage. You have $100 you can get the 120GB Samsung 840 for I believe $90 right now and if you're willing to throw in an extra $20 you can get the new 840 EVO
