Kingston V300 240GB
Another in the list of SandForce SSDs is the latest from Kingston, the SSDNow V300. It's not entirely different in most regards, but it does have Toshiba Toggle NAND and exclusive input from LSI directly to tweak the controller's performance.
Pros:
- Faster speeds than specification
- robust accessory package
- competitive price
- customized controller by LSI
Cons:
- SandForce 2281 struggles with incompressible data
- not fastest SSD on the market

The Kingston V300 128GB is an odd drive in a category where we want to find consistency. The V300 128GB has some good points, some bad points and some points we really can't explain. The drive is different from most LSI SandForce SF-2281 products we've tested.

Great value with lots of accessories
The drive, like other SSD's, is fast & quiet. The capacity is small in today's standards, but that's fine for my application. It came with everything that is needed to mount internally AND externally -- mounting brackets USB2.0 external enclosure and cable.
Pros:
- Fast and comes with extras to mount the drive both Internally & Externally
Cons:
- Would've been better if the external I/F was USB 3.0

No disappointment
Among somewhat less exotic offerings, I was lucky enough to get sent this item to try and keep, by Amazon. It is currently priced at ￡78.

Kingston SSDNow V300 128GB Solid State Drive Review
The newest of the series will be the V300 which is now offered in 60GB, 120GB and the largest 240GB sizes. The heart of the drive is a LSI SandForce controller and new 19mm NAND modules all optimized for Kingston. But is it enough to top one of our favorites? We will soon see.

Kingston SSDNow V300 (120GB & 240GB) Review
I have one issue with the V300: There's nothing particular in it that would differentiate it from the other SandForce based SSDs. While Kingston said they did lots of customization and worked closely with SandForce/LSI, at least in our testing there aren't any striking differences.
