I've got a set of Norsemen that are great. http://www.amazon.com/Norseman-29pc-16-1-Black-Gold/dp/B00627C8ZU the cheapy big box store bits don't last long enough
I can't vouch for your particular situation, but these puppies have punched through anything I've thrown them at. Toughest I've used them on was stainless industrial kitchen equipment and they went through like butter.

Yes, HSS is fine for the majority of materials. If you hit up local hardware stores, stay away from any of the coated junk, it's useless. If you want good quality at a good price, pick up either a Norseman or Drill Hog 29pc set in whatever composition you prefer (M2, M7 hi-moly, M35 Cobalt, M42 cobalt hi-moly). The prices don't vary too much in that range so it probably comes down to preference. If you're in a production environment and will be drilling thousands of holes, yeah, go with cobalt. If not, go with an M7 set.

Note: My guess is that both Norseman and Drill Hog are identical and manufactured at the Norseman facility in St. Paul, Minnesota. (oh and Viking are probably also the same drill bits)*
Cheap drill bits are absolute crap. A lot of the odd fractional sizes aren't even properly hardened because they don't expect them to see much use. Buy them from people who actually make drill bits, not just companies that slap their name on whatever products they can rebrand (Millfuckee and Default do this shit too). Cry once by spending some money, or cry every time you use the cheap shit.
