They explode when you put power on them.

they said you got one thing and sold you another

I have that same one but 240gb and it's okay I guess (it's my first ssd anyway so I don't know how it fares against others)

Well depends on which particular one because they use different controllers every time.

>>57687419
It's a 240GB one, like this anon >>57687310

I can get a 850 EVO cheaper, but since my build is black/red, I really like that Kingston one.

>>57687260
The problem with kingston is that they mix controllers all the time, so its up to luck.
That is why they are considered unreliable.

Just get a 850 evo anon.

Anon, the 850 evo its not only more reliable and last you way longer but its faster as well.

3D NAND>SLC cache+TLC NAND.

I've been looking at benchmarks and it's not as fast as the Kingston.

Reviews are pretty good on the Kingston too.

>Our time with Kingston's HyperX Savage as our boot volume was just out of this world good. I am a little reluctant to classify the Savage as a hyper-class SSD, but then again, it's so fast in a consumer setting that I am hard pressed to find a more applicable category for it.
>We really didn't expect Kingston's HyperX Savage to breakdown the lab door and storm in like it did; busting out lab records.

While the 850 Evo looks like the safe buy, I really am impressed with the reviews on this one.
