    A high-performance, reliable SSD

    The Kingston KC3000 512GB is an excellent choice for those looking for a fast, reliable SSD. The read and write speeds are very good, which means fast loading times for both applications and games!

    The 512GB capacity is sufficient for standard use, such as installing the OS, software and a few games. The SSD was installed by LDLC, who were, as usual, top-notch, thank you!

    One small point to note: if you have larger storage needs, it can fill up quickly, so it might be worth considering a 1TB version.

    To sum up, this is a high-performance SSD, offering excellent value for money for users looking for fast, reliable NVMe speeds.

    INCREDIBLE

    I switched from an SSD to this hard drive... it's futuristic!
    the speed tested on a 16GB file is 2744MO/s writing and 2960MO/s reading
    that's just phenomenal.
    coupled with a USB-C 3 gen 2 key, I'm getting speeds of 900 MB/s write and 970 MB/s read.
    It sounds unreal, but it's true!

    excellent!

    I'm doing a summary, I never exceed 50 degrees (CPU, CGU, SSD, RAM) in ultra whether on the latest games of 2023 or older games, no lag, always at least 60fps in ultra 4k, cooling impeccable. I can only recommend all the following components:
    - Intel Core i5-14600KF (3.5 GHz / 5.3 GHz)
    - be quiet! Dark Rock 4
    - ASUS TUF GAMING B760-PLUS WIFI
    - Corsair Vengeance DDR5 32 GB ,
    - ASUS ProArt GeForce RTX 4070 Ti
    - MSI MPG A850G PCIE5
    - Fractal Design Meshify 2 Lite TG (Black)

    R.A.S. TB SSD

    Very good SSD. Measured write speed: 3GB/s (announced 4) and very stable. Only the last few GB are written more slowly. I would recommend it.
