Kingston SSDNow V+ 128GB SSD Review

Posted on 2010-10-13 02:09:42 by Thomas De Maesschalck

With prices slowly dropping on SSDs, never has there been a better time to invest in a rapid storage device for your windows boot drive. Being lower in capacity compared to the traditional hard drive has meant that many abstain from investing in 30-60GB for their boot drive which is understandable. But since 100GB+ is now available at a much more affordable price, there is a keen attraction to making the move.

Incorporating the Toshiba internals (SNVP325-S2) this drive is the 2nd generation supporting TRIM . So there is no need to flash firmware to get TRIM support, it comes as standard on this 128GB unit I am reviewing today. The V+ series boasts some speedy performance gains over the original V series of SSD using MLC NAND Flash and a claim of 1,000,000 hours MTBF (mean time before failure) which translates to 114 years just in case you wanted to try and out live the Guinness World record holder.
