A first class entrance into the new market for Kingston
Kingston has been working very hard to break away from their reputation for compatibly over performance. They have accomplished this in many ways with their HyperX line of products. However they have not forgotten to take care of their customers either. W...
Abstract: Today we will put under testing the 'enthusiast' SSD made by Kingston, the HyperX SSD 120GB. The drive is combines the latest SandForce controller technology (SF-2281with Intel 25nm MLC NAND Flash. It provides high-speed SATA Rev 3.0 (6Gb/s) transfer s...
Unfortunately, our today’s tests do not provide a clear answer to the question if building a RAID0 out of modern SSDs makes sense. This solution has its highs and lows and we can only do as much as lost them all and let you be the decision maker. RAID...
Fastest drive we ever tested, Great accessory package, SATA 6 Gbps support, Supports TRIM, 3 year warranty, Nice looking, rugged metal case, Migration software included, 3.5" adapter included
Needs SATA 6 Gbps controller to perform best, High price
Kingston's HyperX SSD really deserves the prominent name, originating from their high-end system RAM. In our testing the SSD is the fastest we've ever seen, beating the competition by quite big margins in some benchmarks. It seems the combination betwe...
This drive sells for around 230$ I think at the moment, but they go on sale quite often. I suggest taking a look at sites like slickdeals, etc… for good deals. I think the numbers speak for themselves; the drive performs excellent! It beats out older ...

The Kingston HyperX exhibited strong performance throughout our benchmarks in both synthetic and real-world scenarios. It has relatively low power consumption and no significant weaknesses. It matched or defeated its competitors, including the OCZ Ver...
Overall the fastest 2.5-inch solid state drive we have tested, Upgrade kit comes with extras, Sexiest solid state drive available, Upgrade kit is the same price as the standalone drive
None that I found
As I said in the introduction of this review HyperX is what Kingston calls their top-tier products, so does this drive deserve that name? It sure does! From an overall standpoint this drive is the fastest 2.5-inch solid state drive we have tested acc...
The Kingston HyperX solid state drive put up a good fight against the OCZ Vertex 3 MAX IOPS in our tests with the drives exhibiting a similar level of performance on a number of occasions. On average, we would say that it was ever so slightly behind th...
