Small ssd (self.pcmasterrace)

I finished my first build a few months ago, put fedora workstation on it, everything's been great so far, but there are a few games I have and love which don't work, or are incredibly unstable. so I'm looking for a small, let's say 256gb SSD, to dual boot with windows for those games as well as creative work with lightroom.

My current drive has enough storage for a windows dual boot on its own, but I do not want windows to hide the linux partition or delete it completely.

So my questions are:

Should I get a larger SSD than 256gb?
what would be a good drive at that size?

Plus windows sometimes decides 100gb ain't enough for the operation system
