I only know my OCZ, and personally I'd get a 240GB drive.

if you're concerned about that 8GB then just got for a 240GB drive. a once and done is more economical than getting a 120GB drive due to budget and then realizing 2 months later that you'll be getting a 240GB drive anyway.
the only SSD i've used is the Corsair Force 3 (i have two of them). I kinda wish i'd have sprung for the few extra $$ and gotten for Corsair Force GT instead.
