Kingston HyperX 120GB Solid State Drive Review @ CDRLabs.com

Stefan Mileschin · 12th October 2011, 07:13

With the HyperX SSD, Kingston has made its long awaited entrance into the
high-performance SSD market. Targeted at enthusiasts, gamers, and
performance users, this new SSD combines the latest SandForce SF-2281
controller with Intel's 25nm synchronous NAND flash. As you'd expect, this
combination produced some impressive performance numbers. In our sequential
read and write tests, the HyperX was able to read at speeds as high as 559
MB/s and write at speeds in excess of 460 MB/s. It also performed very well
when doing random writes, delivering more than 72,000 IOPS. Impressive
performance isn't the only thing the HyperX has to offer either. Along with
a great looking design, the SSD is available as a standalone drive or as
part of an upgrade kit for easy installation.
