Kingston 480GB A400 SATA 3 2.5 Internal SSD SA400S37/480G - HDD Replacement for Increase Performance

After over a week of trying to diagnose what I was doing wrong with installing windows (Something I had done plenty of times before with no issue.) and trying to remedy this problem on multiple computers, I decided to read the reviews on this drive only to find that other people had the same issue i did. Promptly returned this drive, and ordered a new one, which i was able to install and boot windows off of within 30 minutes of receiving it. Seems like the QC is poor on these drives, you get what you pay for. My device recognized the drive, but would not boot off of it.

Just an FYI: The product shows an instructional video for Acronis True Image Free to clone your disk, but that doesnt appear to work anymore. I am using the 30-day trial of Macrium Reflect to clone my disk, Ive use it in the past successfully. It requires that you understand how to re-partition your disk, so you may run into a challenge unless you are familiar with disk structure.

Quick install, worked have been nice to get an adapter tray with it

Very happy. Simple setup.

Good price and performance at a pretty unbeatable price. Kingston has been in the game of flash memory for as long as any other manufacturer out there and their reliability is as good if not better than Samsung and any other brand on the market. SSD is in the same category of memory storage as a flash drive so I trust Kingstons reliability will be the same here as well. Other big name brands (Samsung for instance) have only recently started making flash memory devices, so I would rather stick with a company that focuses mainly on flash memory, and has since it was invented. This SSD is being used in a Lenovo T60 laptop, so it will get the most abuse you can put an SSD through (being in a laptop of course) and I will update this review if something changes.

Buen producto y buen precio

I had an older Intel i3 powered Dell laptop sitting around, and decided to try an SSD to speed it up enough to allow my daughter to play educational games and use Office apps without having to risk her breaking one of our nicer laptops. Cloning the old drive was simple enough and once I got it up and running it was clear that this inexpensive SSD was worth every penny. We aren’t taxing the drive with tons of read/write cycles and I haven’t done any benchmarks to see how fast data transfer is, but the time to boot into Windows is less than half of what it was before and Chrome and IE open immediately instead of waiting 30+ seconds like when on the old 5400 RPM HDD.

Producto recomendado, muy bueno. Probablemente vuelvoa y lo compre

Ssd

Just got my Drive and Im super excited to install and see the difference. Im writing this review because when I opened my hard drive from the package the Warranty sticker caught my eye. It looked half way removed or something and it was pressed back down I could be wrong but,Im afraid if I ever do need to send back to company that they would say its voided. When I opened package this way and never used it. I will update review once I install and see my laptops performance.
