how important is IOPS? On the SSD I plan to mainly just put the OS.

And if it is super important which SSD (120 GB MIN, $50 MAX) do you recommend I go with instead?

IOPS is the most important speed in SSD

it is the speed of reading and writing random small files . and all the OS files are small.

the huge numbers 500MB/s this is the speed of sequential read/write of LARGE files ... you will feel them only when copying or reading large files ... like movies , photos , zip files etc ..

Can you tell me how this looks?

Performance
Max Sequential Read
Up to 500 MBps
Max Sequential Write
Up to 140 MBps
4KB Random Read
Up to 65,000 IOPS
4KB Random Write
Up to 36,000 IOPS
MTBF
1,000,000 hours

Or should I go with this instead:

Performance

Up to 560 MBps
Max Sequential Write
Up to 425 MBps
4KB Random Read
Up to 100,000 IOPS
4KB Random Write
Up to 14,000 IOPS
