  • Abstract:  Kingston is one of the few companies that doesn't just pack its SSDs in with a two-page flyer; this pack is a complete SSD upgrade kit. Along with the important bit -- the SSD drive -- it includes a load of goodies, but whether they’re worth paying f...

  • Unfortunately, our today’s tests do not provide a clear answer to the question if building a RAID0 out of modern SSDs makes sense. This solution has its highs and lows and we can only do as much as lost them all and let you be the decision maker. RAID...

  • Needs SATA 6 Gbps controller to perform best, High price

  • Performance, Stability, Price
  • None so far
  • This drive sells for around 230$ I think at the moment, but they go on sale quite often. I suggest taking a look at sites like slickdeals, etc… for good deals. I think the numbers speak for themselves; the drive performs excellent! It beats out older ...
