One last thing. why would these two be different in prices, its almost a 90 dollar difference. i noticed they both have the same model number but one is 250BW and another one says 250LW.

No idea. They appear to be the same drive.
There is a similar, but not as pronounced, price difference on Newegg.

same drive, but one includes USB-SATA cable and a spacer for installing into a notebook, other is just the drive alone.
Thank you for looking into that. I still have troubles picking between storage mass though. I have gaming laptop that is i7 and1TB 5400RPM HDD. I have only about 76GB taken up. I'm guessing that is windows 8.1 with BF4,league of legends. and some steam games. I don't really have music on it and i could just just save music, pictures, and other things to my HDD in the future. I don't know if i should get the Samsung 120GB evo/128GB pro, or Samsung 250GB evo/256GB pro. Would it all just depend on how much I would want to spend or how much much storage i would exactly need. Would the 120GB/128GB be enough ?

a piece of cardboard box cut to size is your FREE spacer.
at the NewEgg prices, I'd play it safe and spend the 205 in case there's some additional software that's made available either on the SSD or as a free download (back of SSD might have the license key for said software)
at the BestBuy prices, I'd get just the drive and learn how to do things manually.
