I'm looking to grab a 256GB SSD for my computer. I think 256GB would be good because I'd need windows 8.1, Netbeans, MS Office, and a few other utilities/programs on there, and 256GB should give me a decent amount of breathing room I think...

There's a good computer store near me, Canada Computers Waterloo, and I've been looking through the online catalog and found these:

256 GB:

128 GB:

Do any of these look like stand out deals? I'm not too familiar with SSD specs, so I don't really know what I'm looking for, and whats reliable. I could also ship something from newegg.ca or something, I'm just impatient :p  If theres a super deal online though, it might be best to take that route.

Thanks!

At $147 after tax? It seems sort of expensive to me, but again I don't know much about SSDs

Here in the states it is cheaper, read anandtechs review and tomshardware review of the drive. It is a good drive and SSD used to be a dollar or more a GB... You could just buy a faster HDD, that is much cheaper.
