960 Evo or 960 Pro?
Speedwise you're better off with NVMe-SSD's, but you won't notice any real life difference unless you do very specific tasks.
The main reason with 850 Pro is it's lifespan and longer warranty.
Whenever anyone ask me how large SSD they should get I always ask them to look up how much space Windows + all the installed programs (or at least all the installed programs they want to have on the SSD) take up, then maybe add some extra headroom, and then decide on the SSD size accordingly. It may sometimes seem expensive, but ask yourself how long it will take before you actually upgrade to a larger one. If you feel it won't take that long, then why not just grab a large one right from the beginning?
Unless you have a tighter budget at the moment and can't afford waiting, of course.
But even then it may be worth taking a leap of faith and "waste" some money on a larger SSD. When I built my PC last winter I grabbed a 240 GB SSD, but look at me now less than a year later, I'm rocking a 1 TB SSD, and it feels like the best upgrade I've done to the PC so far, and I regret not getting one that size from the start.
