Hi,
I put OCZ Vertex 3. It has better writing speeds and is a bit cheeper.

One thing I disliked about having a SSD in my X200 was having to carry most things on the external drive, which is why I like the X220 as you can have both. You might want to consider the Seagate Momentus XT. It's a hard drive with a flash drive attached. Once it figures your usage patterns, it offers near SSD performance. Plus you've got much more space left over.

Well, unless you can afford a 512 GB SSD at least (probably wasn't available yet when you were upgrading).
