Newegg has some decent sized SSD's for sale http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100008118%204027&IsNodeId=1&name=%2475%20-%20%24100
Though are you looking for extra space or are you planning on installing an OS on it?
If your looking for extra space - http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100007603%204027&IsNodeId=1&name=%2475%20-%20%24100
There's some 1 to 2TB within your price range. Though that is in US dollars, anyway black or green Western Digital hard drives are probably the best but you can get some Seagates for pretty cheap, though i will suggest that any data you don't want to lose you'll need to back them up somehow.

Getting 2 SSD's in RAID 0 is overkill imo. I think the best setup for storage would be a 128Gb SSD for you OS and demanding programs (not games), coupled with a 1TB hard drive for mass storage (pictures, music, movies, games, etc). Western Digital Caviar Black runs at 7200 rpm, which gives you nice performance for price (around 80 USD). http://www.amazon.com/Western-Digital-Cache-Desktop-WD1003FZEX/dp/B00FJRS6FU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1402419874&sr=8-1&keywords=wd+caviar+black
If you want better performance, you could combine two WD Caviar Red in RAID 0 for maximum performance. But remember that RAID 0 brings more risks of failure, since two disks are splitting the data into each other. If one disk dies, all your files will be lost (or very hard to recover).
