So iv recently started to put a little bit of work into my PC, and im currently looking to make the switch from my HDD to a SSD, but I'm not sure the size or different brands i should choose from.

Currently my PC is running with a 1TB HDD and im only using under 100GB

I'm not looking to buy a super amazing one, i don't do a ton of Computer gaming, and would only need 256GB or memory or 512 if the price was decent.

Would this one do the job i need?

Buy a 1tb ssd and clone device with clonezilla if your trying to concerve time/settings/files etc.
If files and reformatting is no issue then buy a small drive - if that's the case yes that works
