Overview

A400: Incredible speeds and rock-solid reliability

Kingston' s 480GB A400 SSD dramatically improves the responsiveness of your current system with faster boot, load and transfer speeds than traditional hard drives. Powered by a next-generation controller with read and write speeds of up to 500MB/s and 450MB/s, this SSD is ten times faster than a traditional hard drive and delivers higher performance, ultra-responsive multi-tasking and system-wide acceleration.

More reliable and durable than a hard drive, the A400 is built using only Flash components. With no moving parts, it is less prone to failure than a conventional hard drive. It's quieter and cooler, and more resistant to vibration and shock, making it ideal for laptops and other mobile computing systems.

Give your system a facelift

The A400 SSD is available in a variety of capacities starting at 120GB. So you'll have plenty of space for your files, applications, videos, photos and other documents. You can also replace your hard drive or a smaller SSD with one large enough to hold all your files.

This SSD is designed for use with desktop and laptop PCs, not in server environments.

    A must-have!

    Not much to say other than that it saves an enormous amount of time when you use a screwdriver kit like this and regularly work with hardware!

    Fast SSD

    A very good SSD for giving a boost to an old laptop with an old HDD. Windows starts up very quickly and applications open immediately.
    If your laptop is old and slow, this is the ideal solution.
