How much data from an OS?

I'm checking for an appropriate SSD to match your Windows 10 system. Could you confirm if you're using Windows 10 or Windows 8.1? Also, let me know the amount of storage you need.

Refers to approximately 60GB needed for the newest updates and drivers.

A 120GB SSD is sufficient for the operating system. For additional use with games and apps, you'll need a little extra storage.

It should work well on a 64GB SSD for the boot drive and some apps.

Keep the SSD with 25% free space at all times. Drives above 75% capacity experience significant slowdowns in reading and writing.

The 64-bit edition of Windows 10 requires roughly 12 to 14GB of storage, varying with your device drivers. (Your chipset driver accounts for around 1.3GB.)
