how much space do I need for a boot drive?

[jm-april20]

If it is literally just for windows 10, how much space do i need for the ssd?

I think 120gb should be enough, but for some reason people recommend 250gb

Is there something wrong with only going with 120gb?

For my build I plan on going 120gb ssd + 1tb hdd

also pls drop any recommendations for 120gb ssd, it would be appreciated

A 120GB SSD would be enough for a boot drive, and programs as well.
The main reason 120GB is regarded as not enough is the value is significantly increased if you can fit a game or two on there as well.
An 860 EVO would be a solid SSD.

Also "generally" larger drives are actually a bit faster though whether you see the difference in actual use can be debated.
