Tried this SSD on 2x desktops, admittedly both slightly older: a 5+ year old HP (Win 7 pro) and 3+ Lenovo (Win 10 pro). Freezes intermittantly for 10 seconds or so on both machines and then continues. This happens fairly frequently. Replaced with a Samsung EVO which worked no problems on both. I won't buy Kingston again. Tried this SSD on 2x desktops, admittedly both slightly older: a 5+ year old HP (Win 7 pro) and 3+ Lenovo (Win 10 pro).

This ssd is absolute shit i bought it from pb tech acouple months ago and it ran fine with my i3 cpu quad core and my 1050ti 4gb gpu but after 2 months apps and games would start freezing for up to 30 seconds becuase the disk was maxxing out for no reason at all there were no applications that were heavy on the ssd so i decided to test if it was the ssd so i bough a nova 970 samsung and my pc instantly ran faster without freezing and no maxing out keeping a steady line so do not buy this ssd its just a useless money hole This ssd is absolute shit i bought it from pb tech acouple months ago and it ran fine with my i3 cpu quad core and my 1050ti 4gb gpu but after 2 months apps and games would start freezing for up to 30 seconds becuase the disk was maxxing out for no reason at all there were no applications that were heavy on the ssd so i decided to test if it was the ssd so i bough a nova 970 samsung and my pc instantly ran faster without freezing and no maxing out keeping a steady line so do not buy this ssd its just a useless money hole

Don't believe the Tech Reviews, these have been revised and nothing like the original product. I was disappointed with performance from the start so I tried some benchmarking.
Userbenchmark doesn't believe how slow it is, suggests that I check ports and cables (that didn't help).
Crystal Disk Mark shows it about 3X HDD in all different modes.
It is an improvement on the old Adata drive I was using, slightly. Hoping it won't do the sudden failure thing like the Adata I had before.
I'll be going premium from now. Don't believe the Tech Reviews, these have been revised and nothing like the original product. I was disappointed with performance from the start so I tried some benchmarking.

Use one of these to upgrade an office desktop from HDD to SSD. Cloned the HDD which was a 250GB drive. Image loaded system rolled over was all very easy. Does not come with any migration software like Adata drives do, so if your planning to do the same, you will need a migration tool. In an ideal world you will be installing fresh so this shouldn't be an issue.
Drive performs well and I have noted no issues so far. The Kingston SSD tool is mostly pointless and a waste of system resources. it is however good for updating the firmware.

I have a Asus laptop, approx two & a half years old. Since installing the drive about 3 weeks ago, my start up speed has increased dramatically as well speed in general, and I'm also not getting anywhere near as much lag when playing certain online games, not sure if it's linked to the drive but the improvement started as soon as it was installed.

Cheap, I mean it is one of the cheapest SSD that I have ever seen but it does it job. However, being the cheapest model, migrating data from the existing HDD or SSD can be a real pain because they don't come with a migration tool.

As usual, great prices for excellent Items. Extremely well packaged and quick delivery even though expected delays at Christmas. Thank you. As usual, great prices for excellent Items. Extremely well packaged and quick delivery even though expected delays at Christmas. Thank you.

Second ssd of this model that I got, never had any issues.

Comparing to a hard drive it's light speed. Second ssd of this model that I got, never had any issues.
