Kingston SSDNow V300 120GB SATA 3.0 SSD
Lastly, with the initial create task in Compile Bench the performance out of the KINGSTON SV300S3 120GB on Ubuntu with the Linux 3.13 kernel was on par with the OCZ Vertex 3 SSD. At the end of the day there isn't anything special about the Kingston SSDNow V300's performance.

- Upon searching I found that there was a firmware update for the SSD - 60AABBF0.
