Yep Kingston really nailed it with these, look great, awesome performance and Kingston quality and great service/warranty.

If they are anything like other Kingston SSD's they simply do not fail, Kingston and Samsung most reliable SSD's we sell, typical failure rates of under 0.25% :)
 
I am also looking to upgrade my 240gb ssd, so either a 480 or 960 would needed, would rather go 960, so yes, very interested in the large size.


Shall push Kingston for a launch deal, think it would be ace if we could hit £199 for a 960G, would be best price on market for that capacity I think, but its just a wish.
 
I'd go £200 fora 1Tb SSD.

Pushed Kingston for a deal now on their best drive, the Savage, competitors are £250-£280, got a deal that gets us close to that £200 mark on one of the best SSD's on the market! :D

Nice deal....

But think I will hold out until the Kingston's 960GB SSDNow UV400 is released, at hopefully a £30.00 cheaper price point,....
as for my need, not sure I need the extra performance of the HyperX® Savage SSD.

If it was to be a main (OS) drive, probably yes,... but as a flight sim installed scenery, etc storage drive, not sure the extra cost for better write speed can be justified.


At moment UV400 version will be similar cost to his if NAND pricing holds, regular price on this drive is well over £250, I convinced Kingston to give OcUK a nice deal for those who don't want to wait for UV400. :)

So UV400 could be cheaper but could just cost the same.
 
Erm, price was right at the time of advertising (over 2 months ago) so how do you expect anything is wrong?
The currency market has moved around just a tad in that time and the pound has tanked which I'm guessing is the reason for the substantial rise.


Exactly my point.

The pound weakening has effect the price by around 10% !

Unfortunately the other 20% and more is due to NAND and RAM prices going up in general, due to a fire in one of the factories supply is not so great now for remainder of the year on DRAM/NAND which has cause the prices to go up so dramatically. Then of course with pound crashing just made matters worse.
