My OS drive uses about 65 gigs out of 120-odd. This includes Cubase Pro, Wavelab Elements, MS Office, Apache OpenOffice, Visual Studio 2013 Express, Corel VideoStudio and PaintShop Pro, Serif MoviePlus, and all the usual utility programs including Paragon backup and HDD utilities.
I'd have thought 250 gig SSD for the OS/software should be fine.
