+1. Price/GB the 120GB really makes a lot more sense at the moment.
I was initially planning on a 60/64GB for my build but ended up going for a 120GB for not much more.

What SSD did you get?

KINGSTON SSD V+200 120G SATA3 6Gb/S. I have no complaints with it.

I will get the Crucial 64GB SSD.

does anyone know if the Silverstone ML3B case would handle 1 SSD 2.5" 1 HDD 3.5" and 1 HDD 2.5"?

I have that exact SSD in my Silverstone ML3B case.

Originally I had that SSD, two 3.5" HDDs, a thin laptop blu-ray drive in a bracket in the 5.25" slot, and a 2.5" HDD underneath that, with space for another 2.5" HDD. I've since removed all the HDD's from my case and have put them into my unRAID server and the HTPC now gets all it's media from the server.
HTPC 1 - AMD A8-3870K, ASRock A75M, Silverstone ML03B, Kingston HyperX 4GB DDR3 1866, Crucial M4 64GB SSD
HTPC 2 - HP Stream Mini, 6GB Ram
unRAID 6 Server - Intel Celeron G1610, 20TB Storage

I'm loyal to Crucial SSD.
I have the 128 GB SSD on my laptop and I just love it.

BTW: do you recommend getting the latest firmware? currently I'm using the second up-to-date firmware.
