What's the best budget mSATA SSD?

Doesn't have to be SATA 6 speeds as my Asrock Z77E-ITX only runs the mSATA slot at SATA 3 speeds.

It'll only be used as an OS drive.

Is mSATA needed? A normal SSD would be cheaper.

You're getting a little confused, SATA 3 is the latest widespread standard, it runs at 6 Gbit/sec.

And yes due to using a tiny ass case mSATA is very much needed.
