I've bought about 50 120GB and maybe 10 240GB in last 2 years and I had trouble with none. Maybe there is faster models, but the performance is very good for the price. A core i5 can boot in about 27 seconds including Bios time.

Reliable and fast

None

I'm currently using this in a Mac mini 2010 upgraded from the mechanical hard drive it shipped with. I was able to install Mac High Sierra on it and have no complaints. It still runs slow compared to today's technology standards but that's becuase it's an almost ten year old Mac.

Purchased one of these before for my desktop and it worked well. No more clunking hard drive. Acronis cloning software that came with the first one was a breeze. So pleased with it that I purchased a second one for my 7 year old laptop. Increased speed and no more hard drive thrashing!

Bought this SSD for my wife's 2-year old notebook computer; installing was easy. After I cloned the original hard drive I took it out and put the Kingston back in. After switching the computer on, I was asked for a restart and after that my wife had a super-fast intel Core i-3 computer.

Write speeds not as strong

We've seen solid state drives become very popular over the last couple of years, as prices have continued to drop and consumers are taking notice of the impressive overall system boost that SSDs can offer.

Faster speeds than specification; robust accessory package; competitive price; customized controller by LSI

SandForce 2281 struggles with incompressible data; not fastest SSD on the market

We have in our labs Kingston's latest solid-state drives (SSDs) for PCs and laptops, the SSDNow V300 Series. Designed to replace the existing SSDNow V200 models, the V300 should offer sequential read and write speeds of around 450MB/s - somewhere between five and 10 times faster than a traditional...

No disappointment

Works as billed

Need to have confidence to install

Bought this for a 2012 macbook pro and this breathed new life into the machine. Like night and day. Has been working for a couple of years now.
