SSD Fast Budget

So I'm looking at SSDs and I am primarily looking to get a 120GB because it will hold my OS and my primary game: Elder Scrolls Online. I already have a HDD for other stuff.

I'm looking at Sandisk or Kingston right now. Is there a big difference at SSD Plus and Ultra II?

Also a used Crucial MX300 275GB has caught my eye but is used worth it?

 

Budget:

~120GB = $55 USD

~250GB = $75 USD (Sales/Used)

Open to suggestions.

FULL CUSTOM WATER COOLED = AMD Ryzen 1700X + AsRock B450 itx/ac + 2x8GB ADATA D10 DDR4 + EVGA GTX 1070 FTW +  Integra 450W SFX + Intel 660p 1TB SSD + Modded Fractal Design Node 202

Wow, that seems to be quite a bit above the other SSDs in the price per read/write maxes. Thanks!
