Can Kingston's latest drive give the SandForce controller a new lease of life?
Good performance ; Competitively priced ; Good accessories
Incompressible data performance could be better ; SandForce showing signs of age

Since Kingston introduced the V series of drives a few years ago, the V has always stood for Value and this by all means stands true to this drive. The V300 is the fastest V series drive that we have seen to date (as one would expect) and along with a...

The 128GB Kingston SSDNow V300 Series SV300S3D7 internal solid-state drive pushes well below the $1 per GB price point without compromising drive performance.

The 128GB Kingston SSDNow V300 Series SV300S3D7 is the inexpensive internal solid-state drive you've been waiting for.
Great price/performance ratio. Priced well below $1 per GB.
Older SF-2181 loses speed in random read/writes, or when working with uncompressed data.

Kingston's SSD lineup is as follows: They have HyperX-branded SSDs for enthusiasts and the mainstream market is catered by SSDNow brand. The HyperX SSDs have been fairly popular from what I've seen and we have also reviewed the regular HyperX as well...

You may have the impression that solid state drives on LSI SF-2281 controller have already been studied and tested inside out. However, Kingston managed to come up with a product that turned out genuinely surprising in the most positive way.
Expert review by : goldfries (goldfries.com)
The drive is available at RM 299 but it doesn’t come with an installation kit, and yet it costs more than the Intel 330 series of the same size that comes with an installation kit (RM 269)! I didn’t buy an Intel 330 series because I already have one,...
