A400

It is a great option and for a very good price; I've been using Kingston SSD drives for a few years and I'm not disappointed at all. I'm currently using this drive for work and It's been working very well. Installation was easy too and It has a great compatibility with my laptop.

So far so good, I dont have any problem so far.

3 months in and no issues, easy cloning software decent for the price.

Fast, durable, easy to install, good speed, works perfectly with my computer, and serves as an amazing storage upgrade for a desktop. I cannot recommend Kingston SSDs enough.

Works well for older laptops. Easy to install depending on the device you put them in as it’s sata. Only thing that I have a problem with is that it has a relatively short lifespan. I’m on 99% after only 600 gb of writes. Don’t know why it’s like that, but beware if you’re a heavy user.

I've had this drive for years now and it's still works like it did when I got it. It has some wear and tear based on the Kingston software tool that you can download for it, but for the low cost you can't go wrong. Last time I checked the number it was still in the mid 90% "good" range since the laptop doesn't get used everyday. Granted it isn't as durable as the Samsung SATA disk counterpart in my main computer and won't come close to the even faster PCI-e SSD's used for the boot and games drives. I didn't buy it for that though, it was used to upgrade my HP 8770W laptop computer's original HDD. I am very happy with the 250GB version, very affordable price as well for what little I use it. The read/write speeds for this disk top out at around 550MB/s on SSD to SSD transfers which is the max speed of the SATA interface and pretty much the same for all SATA type solid state drives. I tired that out directly using the 2nd drive bay in the laptop to connect my other Samsung 870 EVO alongside the Kingston. The Kingston was setup as the main disk of course, and the Samsung was removed after testing it out that way. You'll see a noticeable improvement in loading time for everything when updating from the now almost obsolete platter disk drives. I would buy this again, and may again some day whenever the one I have now fails. It should last for years really since the laptop this drive is in is seldom used these days. Recently one of my great nieces has began using it for random computer gaming so it will wear out at some point I suppose. It seems very durable so far though. It was very easy to install, only required a small + type screw driver and then installing a fresh copy of Windows 11 on the drive. It was a very fast Windows install, finishing the install process in less than 10 minutes. If you are just using it as a second disk and not installing an OS on it then you may have to initialize the disk before the operating system can see it for formatting. Some people may use other methods to preserve their original disk data like disk cloning or raid setups. There wasn't much of anything of value on the original disk so installing from nothing was not a problem. Of course I have all the drivers and such for the older laptop backed up on a flash drive, and an additional hard drive in case HP drops the model from their support pages. I guess that sums it then, hope the review helps other people choose the SSD that fits their needs.

My old faithful Dell Inspiron 5559 laptop (Intel Core i5-6200U CPU @ 2.30GHz / 2.40 GHz) (circa 2017) was staring to show its age. Incredibly slow to boot and sluggish all around. Did not want to drop hundreds on a new machine so rolled up my sleeves and dug in. First upgraded the RAM from 8mb to 16mb. Helped overall performance but not boot time. Went all in and decided a new SSD to replace the original HDD was in order. Chose this Kingston 960gb A400 SATA drive based upon price and info from the Kingston web site that said it would be a drop in replacement. It was and after two weeks in operation I could not be happier. Got me a USB3.0 to 2.5 SATA SDD Cable (Amazon item B00HJZJI84) to clone my old drive to the new. For unknown reasons, I could not get the Acronis True Image cloning software that is available for free download at the Kingston web site to work. It kept telling me there was not enough space on the new SSD even though I was transferring less than 200gb to a 960gb drive. Eventually downloaded a free trial version of Maricum Reflect X and used that to clone my old HDD to the new Kingston SSD. The Maricum software worked on the first try. Once the clone was complete I removed the old HDD from the laptop and installed the new SSD. There are plenty of tutorials on YouTube so I will leave that to you. Powered up the laptop and after a few self-induced power cycles it booted up. Only oddity I experienced is the Dell BIOS made me reset the system time. Since then the Kingston SSD has worked perfectly. The boot up time is spectacular compared to my old HDD and with the expanded RAM the laptop is humming along. The SDD, cable, and the RAM set me back less then a Hundo. A huge savings over purchasing a new machine. Of course time will tell but for now I highly recommend !

After reading a review by a DGS fellow that said he had 30 years in the tech business, I thought this was a real P.O.S.. Well, a little while ago my Ex called me up because she was having some issues with her computer and wanted me to look at it. Being the sap I am, I said ok. Turns out the HDD was bad. The bells went off and I remembered the review left buy the tech guy in Florida and I thought "Eureka!". I would get this SSD for her system and within a few days her computer would explode like a dumpster full of TNT. I get the SSD not on time but a full day early in fact. It installs super easy and she comes and picks it up. I have to hide my excitement as I just wait to hear about the evil that is to come. So after about a week I get anxious and call the Ex to see what was up. Her "Boy Toy" answers and gives me the dreaded news. Not only is it still running, but it is super fast and efficient. He then proceeds to thank me and compliment me on "How mature" it was of me to do this for her even after how messy the divorce was. And how good of a person I really was for being the bigger person and all of that. Long story short, if your looking for a piece of hardware to sabotage your Ex's computer with, this is not it. But, if you are looking for a stable SSD on the cheap to add some performance to your system, well, sadly this is in fact it.

Compré este SSD Kingston A400 de 240GB para mejorar el rendimiento de un equipo y la diferencia fue muy notable. La instalación fue sencilla y desde el primer uso se siente una mejora importante en la velocidad de arranque, apertura de programas y respuesta general del sistema. La calidad de Kingston siempre me ha dado confianza y este disco ha funcionado muy bien. Es una opción práctica para reemplazar un disco duro tradicional y lograr que una computadora tenga un mejor desempeño sin necesidad de cambiar todo el equipo. El tamaño de 240GB es adecuado para sistema operativo, programas y archivos principales, especialmente si se combina con otro almacenamiento para documentos o multimedia.
