Overview

A400: Incredible speeds and rock-solid reliability

Kingston' s 120GB A400 SSD dramatically improves the responsiveness of your current system with faster boot, load and transfer speeds than traditional hard drives. Powered by a next-generation controller with read and write speeds of up to 500MB/s and 320MB/s, this SSD is ten times faster than a traditional hard drive and delivers higher performance, ultra-responsive multitasking and system-wide acceleration.

More reliable and durable than a hard drive, the A400 is built using only Flash components. With no moving parts, it is less prone to failure than a conventional hard drive. It's quieter and cooler, and more resistant to vibration and shock, making it ideal for laptops and other mobile computing systems.

Give your system a facelift

The A400 SSD is available in a variety of capacities starting at 120GB. So you'll have plenty of space for your files, applications, videos, photos and other documents. You can also replace your hard drive or a smaller SSD with one large enough to hold all your files.

This SSD is designed for use with desktop and laptop PCs, not in server environments.

    An SSD that does what an SSD should

    Does what it's supposed to. It stores data, and it's reliable (I've been buying the same one for years).
    In short, no issues with it.

    Great advice

    Excellent attention to my issue with an old PC that was running slowly. Replacing the hard drive will spare me from having to replace my PC for the simple tasks I use it for. My computer has been given a new lease on life and should last a few more years.
    Thank you for the advice and the warm welcome. The service was very reasonably priced.

    Purchase of SSD 960 GO 2.5 "

    I am very satisfied with this purchase, which allows me to back up data in an external enclosure. It is quiet, does not heat up, and transfers very quickly, even over USB 3.0. I already knew this brand.
