Upgrade with Kingston Memory and Solid-State Drives (SSD) to improve the speed and performance of any laptop, desktop or workstation.
Upgrading to a solid-state drive and increasing memory capacity are two easy and cost-effective options for increasing PC or laptop performance.
Even relatively new systems can see a significant performance gain when a traditional hard drive is upgraded to an SSD. Kingston’s entry-level SSDs are ten times faster than a spinning hard drive giving you faster access to programs and files. Our SSDs also offer the benefit of increased storage capacity with drives available in multiple terabytes (TB).
Add even more speed by supplying your system with the optimal memory configuration for your applications and usage level. Since memory is the first place your processor goes for information and instructions, having enough to load frequently utilized data enables you to work more efficiently. Kingston takes the guess work out of buying memory with our Product Finder tool. Just use the search tool above to enter your system information. Either way, we make it easy to find the right RAM or SSD for your PC or laptop.
