Kingston HyperX 240GB SATA III review

Kingston HyperX 240GB SATA III 2.5-Inch 6.0 Gb/s Solid State Drive with SandForce Technology SH100S3/240G


This SSD SSD's are still a lot of money. However, for performance and stability associated with this unit is the obvious choice to lead any SandForce used out there, I have no problem blue screen (BSOD) death to many users. with what appears to be any other brand of San dforce SSD performance of Windows 7 hard drive is rated at 7.9! It claimed that my RAM is now the bottleneck of my computer :) 7.8.

I bought the disc, 240GB naked and its adapter, 3.5 plates "attached, and I explained the SSDs to match the unit with a new computer, Intel-based, this new computer I have the ASUS P8Z68. Deluxe - LGA .. 1155 - Z68 - 6Gbps SATA and USB 3.0 - Intel ATX motherboard DDR3 2200 Z68, 16 GB DDR3 RAM, Intel Core i7-2600K at 3.4 GHz 8 MB cache LGA1155 Socket AMD and VisionTek Radeon HD 6950 2GB GDDR5 . 900,352 PCI card.

I like the tranquility, all related to the SSD, you sort of get used to the hard drive, the mechanical noise over time. I changed from my old system to this system to be very quiet, almost silent. The only sound I heard was my video card fan is spinning during the game.

Kingston is preparing to release a firmware update for this drive, which is currently in beta, if you ask for support directly from Kingston. I have not had any problems with this unit is like. You must be sure to use high quality cables 6Gbps SATA III (motherboard should come with this), and enable AHCI in the BIOS on the motherboard beginning. boot-up/configuration. Then prepare to be blown away.

Here are some examples of the difference in speed.

I boot into Windows 7 (Home Premium) in 16 seconds from power off (as I had time to post a second in the BIOS of the motherboard).

2 after a fresh install of Windows 7, I ran SP1 from my hard drive and it took <10 minutes to install often, it takes time 1 hour, of course, the new processor will also make an impact. However much the actual speed of the SSD.

The ruins of the SSDs at a price per gigabyte of use / impact of the risks associated with SSD SandForce the many uses and the general lack of capacity of a time / volume # 1, drive, this time delay. -To-market. It does not prevent a # 2 and # 3 can be overcome by a variety of ways. (I chose to keep the NAS solution for multiple computers simultaneously). If you can afford, and has such a clear link to the SSD, as the ticket.

Guido yesterday, and attach a photo of the ACT it for more than 525 complaints to accelerate the speed of reading and writing about 480 + units are very fast and have no experience. freezing, or any other place to someone else before you have an SSD Vertex 2 and a speed of 180, maybe more, even if they claim that 250 I do not hate the top 2 for the slowdown is that it is SATA2. Allow me to drive must match what was advertised, and even beyond its HyperX is very surprising.

Installation is a breeze, programs and files that are loaded at once that it was a dream to work on it very expensive, but there is not much SATA3 units with a combination of speed, read / write to the closing price. I'll be 'abused' by tonight with this unit standard a stress test to see if I can make it jump or freeze or give me a reason to switch to something different: a perfect album. ANY
