Thanks for all the replies! After furthur thought, I bought a 64GB (just because that sale to me seemed so amazing I couldn't pass it up) and a 256 GB. I was mostly wanting to know if they would work. I have only had bad experience with SSD so far (I got it when it was very new technology)...
This is the SSD I am wanting to buy:

SAMSUNG 830 Series MZ-7PC064D/AM 2.5" 64GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive
I checked everything out but being kind of a newbie with SSD, I just wanted to make sure it is compatible...
I have had this SSD for a while now and I am having just a ton of problems. I install Win7 64bit on it and it will work completely fine for two days. After all of my updates are done for windows, the computer will eventually go to a blue screen. The blue screen has to due with something of...
To format, I hooked up the SSD to a friends computer and cleaned it that way. I also switched the SATA ports the SSD was hookedup to. It was hooked up to a 6GB/s port and I switched it to a 3GB/s port. I did both at the same time so one of them fixed it :D. I'm too scared to try the 6 GB/s...
Ok... So I installed Win7 on the HDD (Samsung).. Everything is running PERFECT. So I am currently running HDTune(free trial) on the SSD. Is there another test I should be running for a SSD? All other parts of the computer have passed. Memory is fine. GPU was fine. So now I am running HD...
Ya it can't be DVD burned incorrectly because the DVD is directly out of box... I did not do anything with the voltage/clock speed settings. My BIOS may have done something on it's own? I'll have to check that when I get home from work. I have ran memtest86+ all last night and did 15 passes...
I did memtest86+ for 12hours 15 passes. No problems. Even ran the windows memory diagnostic. I am also doing a lot with my HDD and SSD because now I can't even format them to reinstall Win7.. Getting very frustrated. I finally got them to format using cmd prompt and an alternative way of...
I have gotten the SSD to be formatted now. Now when I am installing Win7. A new error occurs when extracting files.
Windows cannot install required files. make sure all f8iles required for installation are available, and restart the installation. Error Code: 0x8007045D.
Ugh..
I was told to reinstall Win7. I tried doing this and I can't format my SSD and my HDD. I also can't find any help ANYWHERE on how to fix this. I get the format error "Failed to format the selected partition. [Error: 0x80070057]." I have tried various things to try and fix this issue... and...
I was trying to fix some problems with my new machine I put together two days ago and was reinstalling windows. I went to format the SSD and it gives me an error saying "Failed to format the selected partition. [Error: 0x80070057]."
Been trying a lot of different things... and nothing...
