...Kingston claims to have fixed the stuttering problem that this controller is known for. Lucky for you, our testing backs up this claim... A drive testing higher
than its posted speed is about as common as Halley’s comet flying by while there’s a blue moon in the sky...Kingston has put a lot of time and effort into the
SSDNow V Series, and it really shows. They worked intensively with JMicron and Toshiba to make lemonade out of what had been a lemon of a storage controller...
For average consumers that want comparable performance to the Velociraptor in a silent, power sipping, ruggedized form, this drive can’t be beat for the price.
Kingston has really gone the extra mile and included everything consumers will need to seamlessly migrate to the new drive...

...the Kingston SSDNow V Series should be of interest to consumers due to its price versus value...used the drive on our Windows Vista 64-bit test system and was
able to download torrents, rip a movie and surf the internet all at the same time without stuttering... The Kingston SSDNow V Series also comes with all the software
needed to clone your old hard drive to the SSD...Considering that this drive with the desktop/notebook bundles and cloning software is priced lower than any brand's
bare drive speaks volumes. The Kingston SSDNow V Series really does offer great value for those looking to move to an entry level MLC SSD without breaking the bank...

for the easiest way to get up and running with an SSD in your system with this is the kit for you. From the inclusion of the external enclosure to the use of the Arconis
software a good deal of thought was put into this so that the upgrade path would not be too complicated for the average user...
