It sometimes costs less than better performing drives.

When first released and reviewed by the industry Kingston used synchronous NAND when building the V300's; In later revisions they transitioned to using cheaper asynchronous NAND which has resulted in severely degraded performance and did nothing to make customers aware of the change

Solid State Drives Edited 4/8/15 Solid state disk (SSD) drives offer a lot of performance enhancements over conventional hard disks (HDD) and replacing an existing HDD with one will breathe new life into a sluggish system.

All you need to perform an easy upgrade to SSD at a good price; Reputable/reliable manufacturer

Maxium size 480GB; Not the fastest SSD but still much faster than a hard disk

Kingston have began to use a SandForce controller on these SSD's and that results in excellent reliability. They are the most reliable and amongst the fastest SSDs FOR THE PRICE. If you want more speed then the SAMSUNG 850 Pro are outstanding, but significantly more expensive.

Happy with purchase. Speedy delivery and easy transaction. Will use site again and would recommend.

I was expecting the full read and write performance that it said on the box but I guess those were for the higher capacity drives because I know that the higher capacity the better the performance but I was still expecting somewhat closer to the advertise price.

Good GB to dollar price ratio -Boot up time with a Windows 8 64-bit OS is less than 2 seconds

-They advertise a sequential read and write of 450 mb/s but when doing crystal disk benchmark only got 160 mb/s for sequential read and 180 mb/s of sequential write; Even if the drive was brand new and nothing much was installed except for the OS and only had 11% space being used.

Very Powerfull , HD .. m glad to have it , my system is super fast no latency While doing any task n system , feel like having bofors gun. (Y)

It's a hard drive. It's hard and it drives. :P

2016 is almost here and i still remember the time 7-8 years ago when the very first commercial solid state drives (SSDs) made their appearance in the market and gave everyone a glimpse into the future of computers.

- Build Quality (SF-2281; - Very Good Performance (Especially For A 3 Year Old Model; - 128TBW / 1 Million Hours MTBF; - 3 Year Warranty With Free Technical Support; - Available Bundles (Notebook/Desktop Kits; - Price (For Some

- 3 Years in The Market / NAND Flash Performance "Issue" (not encountered in our tests

Last November Kingston announced a new series of budget SSDs called SSDNow V300. Hardware.Info tested the 120GB model which is one of the most affordable SSDs currently on the market. The V300 may have a budget price, but it's certainly doesn't contain budget hardware.
