Other Recommended SSD for Eleite Book 8470w

Guest
I have FreeBSD installed on my second hand HP Elite-book 8470w, which I would like to transition away from the traditional spinning platter and to a SATA HDD to a quieter and more reliable Solid State Disk Drive as my main HDD. My plan is to upgrade to SSD and do a fresh install with filesystem trimming enabled om the aforementioned new drive. , while persevering my rc.conf, /boot/loader.conf and other key system related files.
 
I have Micron/Crucial SSD's on my machines ( Arch GNU/Linux-MX100 & Crucial M500- FreeBSD) and both are working excelent!
MX100 - 256GB

 sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda
