The difference between RAM and SSD choices:

16GB vs 24GB RAM: in addition to capacity, also memory bandwidth. 153GB/s vs 170GB/s. If you intend to run a local LLM on this machine, higher memory bandwidth means higher token generation speed. 24GB isn't a lot, but you can fit Qwen3 14B w/ 4-bit quantization and run it "comfortably", as in can still do light web browsing on your desktop machine without suffering.

256GB vs 512GB SSD: More significant difference between two than RAM. 256GB one have fewer flash chips, so you have limited parallelism. Read and write speeds are about 3GB/s (writes slower than reads). 512GB SSD goes up to 6.25GB/s read and write. You will feel this only for very large sequential reads and writes. If this is going to be desktop machine, this isn't something you should worry about. Additionally, higher capacity drive means longer runway for flash life. Again, if you aren't going to be writing a terabyte a day, everyday, for 3+ years, it isn't something worth worrying about.
