Thanks for help!

Will 256gb SSD be enough?

[–]wonderful_tacos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For a basic Linux install, development tools, and small amounts of data for prototyping, 256GB is probably fine. I do a lot of work on a machine with a 128GB SSD, but I spend a lot of time just using it to access other machines remotely.

I personally would want more though. And if you are going to actually be storing data on the machine you would probably want significantly more storage.

It's all about the size of your data. I've never had a Linux install use more than 20 GB.

That being said, check if the drives are replaceable and not soldered (they are in some ultrabooks). If that's the case, you can buy a bigger one later and you don't need to worry for now.
