SSDs have been getting cheaper and cheaper over the years, and even a 250GB SSD can be had for under $100 these days. So, let’s take a look at what 250GB of storage space can do for you.

250GB is enough space to store your operating system, applications (like Microsoft Office or Photos), music and video files, documents and more. It’s also enough storage space for most people to store their entire digital photo collection on their computer without running out of room.

Of course, if you want to store large amounts of data — like videos or images — then you may want more than 250GB of storage space. If you have a lot of photos and videos that you need to store or access regularly, then we recommend getting at least 500GB of storage space.
