Kingston' s 240GB 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 350MB/s, this SSD is ten times faster than a traditional hard drive and delivers higher performance, ultra-responsive multi-tasking 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.
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.

After buying the same one in 2.5" for an old LDLC PC, I ordered this one to boost an old PC of a friend. This M2 has been doing the job for almost a year.
The only negative point is that I remember that the fixing screw was not supplied, and I had to dig deep into my old stuff to find it.
The product does the job I asked it to do, which is to boost a laptop that has a very poor mechanical drive for a bone, now it boots up in a flash, even browsing is improved (the addition of 4gb of RAM also helps).
I haven't done a speed test but clearly the feel is more than enough, one laptop gets a second wind.
