Probably going to get a the SSD via Apple, but still also thinking about just doing the install myself with a 3rd party SSD.

But generally speaking, is there a sweet spot size in terms of price for SSDs?

Also, up to what size are SSDs more proven? For example, a couple of sales rep's at Microcenter told me they felt 2TB HDD aren't proven enough and would only buy 1TB HDD at this time since the 2TBs are too new without a long enough track record. Using that line of thinking, are 512GB "proven"? 256GB? Or perhaps that line of thinking doesn't apply to SSDs??
