SSD Upgrade MacBook Pro Mid 2012 (Model: 9,2)

Hey guys!

Well as some of you might already have read, I will upgrade the RAM of my MacBook Pro, and since I decided to do this, I tought that why maybe not do the SSD as well. I want to know which is the best option for an High Quality SSD for my MacBook Pro Mid 2012 (Intel Core i5 2.5 MHz, 4GB RAM (upgrading to 16GB). I've read that Crucial, but I want an SSD with more than 512 GB which is the amount my Mac came with in the default HD.

Thanks!

Later.

MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)

OWC offers a 960GB SSD with top reliability and storage capacity:

For a little less, Crucial has a reliable SSD available:

Personally, I chose Crucial.

Thanks for the links. I had already decided to buy the Crucial one, since the OWC is way overpriced. I mean a 960GB SSD of Crucial costs me 599.99$ and the one of OWC, 1049$, and both with the same capacity.

Thanks anyway!
