What's a good and fast ssd(s) I can buy to have my os on and possibly put in RAID 0. A 128+gb ssd would be fine and under $250 USD

RAID 0 isn't necessarily recommended, as it does increase risk of failure

I'd get a 250 850 pro if I had that money or stretch it to get a 500 GB

Would a 850 evo be okay instead of a 850 pro

It would. I got pro. Evo is also good. Also Crucial ones are good and cheap if you don't find Samsung ones.
