I have had PNY drives and they use cache in the beginning and drop to about 84MBps after about 8GB is copied... Even PNY USB sticks are the same, so I am trying these. These drives sustain 300+MBps all day long. I am moving this data in about 11 minutes and these things are awesome.",

"ReviewBody": "The mechanical hard disk failed on the boy's laptop - I replaced it with one I had; a 250MB drive from a DVR. That was Ok at best - it took forever to load the OS. We put up with that for a few months until these went on sale last Christmas. We were going to clone the drive but opted for a fresh installed and BOOM! A night and day difference - less than 10 seconds off-to-login.",

"ReviewBody": "I recently upgraded my 11-year-old Windows 7 backup computer to Windows 10, and the Windows 10 boot time was noticeably slow. Previously I had resisted upgrading the computer's C:\\\\ drive to an SSD because of cost, but when I saw this Kingston SSD's low cost I could not resist. I already had the necessary (ASIN B00HJZJI84 not included) USB-to-SATA-3 cable, and a (ASIN B00G57BN1M not included) SSD mounting bracket cost less than ten dollars, an affordable addition.
I optimized my C:\\\\ drive before cloning it, removing obsolete apps and temporary files, and I made a System Image backup. I downloaded Macrium's Reflect Free cloning software from the Internet; Reflect Free has an intuitive user interface and it cloned my HDD to the SSD almost automatically. Swapping the SSD for the HDD involved shifting four screws, a power connector and a data connector. My 11-year-old computer booted on first try and now it boots acceptably fast, an affordable revitalization.",

Shockingly within 30 minutes had a reply and then only 5 to 10 minutes wait with followup questions. Problem was a missing driver on pc. Daniel in support was fantastic. This will be my go to drive company moving forward. Pc is now running at least 10x faster. Boots in under 20 seconds. Prior to this drive was minutes. Great support. Great value. Glad I went with Kingston",

"ReviewBody": "I basically looked at ratings and the price was right during holiday sales. I wanted an SSD drive to use this for my pc back up and image. It runs cool and super fast! My backups finish a lot faster switching this out with an old 2.5HDD. Backups that took 1 hour now take 15 min. SATA connectivity so it is internal and fits in the caddy perfectly. It has a plastic case which surprisingly stays cool enough as not to be a concern.",

"ReviewTitile": "Great Value for low power HomeLab Servers - Not Enterprise",
"ReviewBody": "I must make a disclaimer here - THESE ARE NOT SERVER ENTERPRISE-RATED DRIVES, GO SEE THE ENTERPRISE SSD LINE.
I purchased a hand full of these drives (2x 240 and 6x 960 GB). For the value you pay, the write endurance for these consumer-level drives is very high! Should last you a few years or more. I have had these in a home lab server for close to a year, very fast and power-efficient.
For people just looking to make a very low-power home lab server and don't want to deal with a higher power draw of HDD SAS drives. These will work well for you. Just know, if you use these in servers, you could likely void your warranty.
When reviewing My array, the drives are reporting that there are a few errors, but I have not experienced a catastrophic failure yet. I am seeing one already intermittently disconnecting and reconnecting to the Raid array after 9000 HRs of the drives being online. Drives still show 97% life left. Still impressive.
If you are looking at making a fully-fledged home server meant to run 24/7, look into Enterprise level SSDs if you want power efficiency, speed, and full support for ECC. These Drives do not have ECC from what I can tell (No mention of ECC Support for the A400 line in their promotional material).
Overall, great SSD :), Will recommend people to this product for its value and endurance for home lab project boxes and general-purpose computers.",
