I'm looking at this one http://www.amazon.com/ADATA-Premier-SP550-Solid-ASP550SS3-480GM-C/dp/B013J7P7SK/ref=sr_1_3?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1455237853&sr=1-3&keywords=2.5+ssd&refinements=p_n_feature_three_browse-bin%3A6797519011%2Cp_n_feature_keywords_two_browse-bin%3A4929543011%2Cp_n_feature_keywords_four_browse-bin%3A6158693011%2Cp_36%3A-13000

 

Does brand name really matter?  What should I look for to pick a decent one?

 

The other option is this one but it's more and I'd like to save some $$ http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00RQA6DTE?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=ox_sc_act_title_1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

I think they are pretty decent, seen a fair few good reviews regarding their SSD and also RAM kits.

I have installed these SSDs in two laptops so far for customers. They work well. 

 

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009SX6VLC/ref=s9_dcbhz_bw_g147_i2_sh

 

225 reviews -> 4.5 stars.

All from the Premier Pro line have good reviews as well (if they have reviews).

 

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820211983

 

19 reviews -> 4/5 eggs

 

http://www.ncixus.com/products/?usaffiliateid=1000031504&sku=111657

 

11 reviews -> 91% good (wtv that means with them)

I'd say they are reliable then too.
