Is 256 a big enough drive on a rmbp 15" and use an external drive or is 512 worth the extra mone? I want to run OSX and windows.

I went with 512GB of SSD, but only because I wanted everything on my MBP without the hassle of an external drive.

Only you know how many files you have.

Seriously. Too many people ask this question without giving any information on what their needs are.

If you have or will have more than 220GB in files then the larger. Only you can answer that.

Thankyou. that makes alot of sense. I do have but I have been trying to reduce the amount of files on my iMac and am getting frustrated. I have the 256 and I think I will exchange it for the 512 thanks to Best Buys nice policy.

I think the 1TB is big enough.
