Kingston SSD Weekend Deal

[Doogles]

Does that mean I can send mine back then as they're no where near the advertised speeds.

That's shocking slow for raid0 running on sata3. Good job Kingston.

240GB for £65? How are these not sold out yet?

That is the reason why, can't you just DSR them?

 

[thokkiano]

So,are they worth it?

 

[pob9]

imo nope. wish i hadn't of listened ocuk this time round

 

[Confused Stu]

So,are they worth it?

Definitely not when the Hynix and Fury are £10 less, and the MX100 £5 cheaper.

 

[pob9]

speeds i get are 150 read 200 write. not really what i was lead to believe

If I could get some amazing deals on 1TB SSD's I would be first in the Queue. Will see what I can do. Also working on some 512GB deals.

dont say that just updated all drives with 1Tb and 500Gb

After the 'controversy' with these drives since their changes, are the read and write speeds actually true?

This is why I posted this straight away, obviously Kingston have lied.

This drive has a Sandforce controller so use ATTO, that is what the manu's of them all use so it will be in specs.

Look for ones with Toggle NAND if you want best of both worlds (compressed vs non compressed), ie Corsair Force GS (GT was not toggle NAND) and I have owned both.

Sandforce drives will always come up short on AS SSD.

ATTO

ATTO results for 2 drives in RAID 0
