Good ssd, used for the bone (debian) of my media centre. Nothing more to say. Does the job without a hitch.
Perfect, good equipment
boosts old computers without any problem
LDLC always fast and as serious
As a replacement for my old ssd which ended its life after 10 years, this Kingston SSD does the job very well, fast, nothing to say.
This isn't the first time I've handled an SSD for Windows 10. Barely two hours after I bought it, I installed it in place of a 128GB, disk manager, and then a strange message appeared. I created my volume, did a quick NTFS formatting, and then it refused and switched to normal formatting which jammed at 40% (from 39 to 40 in almost two minutes compared to less than 5 seconds for the others). This is a brand to avoid, as with USB sticks, it's the only brand that gave me problems. I'm lucky, bought today at 4.30pm, brought back tomorrow at 10am at the opening. Put a few euros more for a better quality model.
