What's a good SSD for MBA 2011 model?
I don't keep any media on my 64gb MBA and I'm installing Mountain Lion today and running out of hard drive space.

Is this one all it's cracked up to be?

SSD for MacBook Air 2011 - OWC Mercury Pro Aura Express Sandforce Driven

Any other suggestions? don't need anything too crazy just a bit more space

I believe OWC is your only option for SSD upgrade on the MBA.

I've heard great things about the Samsung drive. I use the Plextor drive and I've had great reliability and speed (550/500 mb/s). Crucial has a great speed/$.
