Description of Product


Adding an SSD to a desktop already using a standard hard disk drive is a smart and efficient way to upgrade
Transferring the operating system and applications from the HDD to the SSD allows the SSD to be used as a bootable drive that takes full advantage of the flash-based technology
For notebooks, SSDNow drives are a perfect replacement for hard drives resulting in faster, more reliable performance
Making this change will improve a notebook's efficiency in a wide range of tasks, from booting up to running the most robust operating system and demanding applications
SSDNow uses a standard SATA interface but, unlike a regular HDD, SSD is very rugged and built with no moving parts, making it ideal for power users and road warriors who push the limits of their notebooks
Other benefits include reduced power usage, less noise and less heat generation
Kingston's SSDNow V Series offers performance gains and power consumption reductions at a fraction of the cost of a system

Review Date: February 5, 2010
Reviewer: Mr. Jon Forster, London, England
I use a Dell XPS laptop all the time. Work away all the time and my laptop is my work and music centre.

I've had a failed drive before and wanted something from a reputable company so went for Kingston.

Using the kit was simple. Just know how to get your hard drive out of the laptop. Rest is simple. One tip - print off the PDf instructions before you start.

Once the data is transferred across then reboot - I did it twice before you see everything is all sorted. Then booting is quicker - not flying but certainly quicker. Launching apps is certainly quicker. Outlook just opens. The other great change is the laptop is SO quiet and the heat drops 90%. Really good! Faster, quieter, cooler.

I'd recommend getting one of these if you ever need a new laptop HD. If your HD is older than 2 years then seriously think about getting one. If you use a laptop away a lot then having a quicker, more resilient disk is so useful.
Excellent Performer

Received this drive within two days. Have it set up on a Toshiba laptop dual booting Linux/Windows 7. Very fast, and as easy to set up as a standard HD.
