Kingston’s A400 solid-state drive dramatically improves the responsiveness of your existing system with incredible boot, loading and transfer speeds compared to mechanical hard drives. Using a latest generation controller for read and write speeds of up to 500MB/s and 450MB/s, this SSD is 10 times faster than a traditional hard drive for better performance, greater responsiveness and multi-tasking, and an overall faster system. In addition to being more reliable and durable, the A400 is available in multiple capacities, from 120GB to 1.92TB.

Incredible speeds, and proven reliability.

Kingston's A400 solid-state drives dramatically improve the responsiveness of your current system with incredible boot, load, and transfer speeds compared to mechanical hard drives. Equipped with the most advanced controller that allows it to reach read and write speeds of up to 500 MB/s and 450 MB/s*, this SSD is ten times faster than a conventional hard drive**, which allows it to offer greater performance, enhance multitasking, and speed up system operation.

In addition to being more reliable and durable than a hard drive, the A400 incorporates Flash memory. It has no moving parts, so the chances of failure are lower than with a mechanical drive. Furthermore, the absence of these parts allows for quieter operation without heat buildup. Its resistance to shocks and vibrations makes them ideal for laptops and other mobile computing devices.

A400 drives come in multiple sizes and capacities, from 120 GB to 1.92 TB**, to give you all the space you need for applications, videos, photos, and other important files. Plus, you can replace your hard drive or a smaller SSD with a drive large enough to fit all your files.

This SSD is designed for typical laptop and desktop workloads. It is not intended for server environments.

* Based on "out-of-the-box" performance with a SATA Rev. 3.0 motherboard. Speed may vary due to host hardware, software, and usage characteristics.

**Some of the capacities specified on a Flash storage device are used for formatting and other functions; therefore, they are not available for data storage. For this reason, the actual data storage capacity is less than indicated on the products.
