WD, Intel, Crucial, Samsung, Kingston... I have experienced several failures with generic ones though!
The SanDisk Ultra line is identical to the WD Blue SSDs. I've got a 512 GB SanDisk Ultra 3D, where that capacity is a Best Buy exclusive. Spent about what a 1TB version might cost now, but I'm still happy with it. I'm thinking of maybe getting a bigger one and then buying another computer and dropping that old one in for my kid to use.

My advice is to get two separate HDD:
One for work SSD - setup windows here, programmes etc., 256GB is enough, but depends on what you exactly doing.. video rendering and post-processings require much memory I hear!
Second one HDD for saving photos/games/vids/documents etc., some kind of "memorial" data, something which you may use not so often. For me such way works good
