Kingston V+ SNVP325-S2 128GB

The Kingston SNVP325-S2 is a 2nd generation SSD that uses Toshiba internals to boost performance and support TRIM out of the box. We do love that, no question. Flashing, firmware, and TRIM can be confusing to consumers, and it's nice to see that Kingston has eliminated that potential anxiety. We've seen some very fast SSDs, and the Indilinx-based drives have proven extremely popular amongst enthusiasts. But Kingston has been working diligently to penetrate further into the marketplace via Intel-rebadged drives, and they've had a couple hit and misses, but this new Toshiba drive looks very impressive from its specifications. But it is in a tough segment in the mainstream SSD market.
