I think you mean for your PC / laptop to do your coding on? SSDs offer a massive performance increase over HDDs, and I think 256GB is more than enough for just web development. Just make sure you have a cloud account like OneDrive to archive files to and you shouldn't have a problem with space.

If you're planning to make your PC a dedicated Web server for your domain then going with the biggest hdd would be best. Network throughput is what you need to concern yourself with when it comes to speed for your website, not hard drive speed.
