Looking for an SSD

As the title says, I'm looking for an SSD for my computer. It isn't slow or anything, I'm just looking for an upgrade to my system. I currently have a 1tb Blue HDD from WD, and I haven't used half of it yet for any of my games and pictures, and I've owned it for a year and a half. Any recommendations on which SSD to get? My price range is below 250 $ CDN. Thanks :D 

 

If it matters, my specs are  i5 4690, with 16GB or RAM, GTX 970, Asus z97-c Mobo

if you are willing to spend ~$20 more you could dump EVERYTHING on an SSD:

It may not be as fast as an 850 evo, but it means all your storage will be fast and not just your OS.

I never heard of this brand but if its a decent brand I would defintely buy this. It will be faster than an HDD and still has about the same capacity as it.
