Kingston A400 SSD Internal Solid State Drive 2.5" SATA Rev 3.0, 960GB - SA400S37/960G

Product Information

The apparent speed may come from a pSLC cache that lives in some of this overprovisioning space, covering up a relatively slow arrangement of planar TLC flash (from what I know from other sources about this particular range).

I replaced 3 large older drives with this one SSD and the whole inside of the tower has less clutter from cables and more airspace for cooling. The compression benchmark shows a slight advantage on reads for compressible data – there may be some logic inside the controller that detects very sparse patterns to speed up performance. form factor makes it compatible with a wide range of laptops and desktops, allowing you to seamlessly integrate it into your existing system.It's also cooler and quieter, and its shock and vibration resistance makes it ideal for notebooks and other mobile computing devices. Rugged - A400 is shock- and vibration-resistant for rugged reliability when used in notebooks and other mobile computing devices.

However, it was discovered that depending on the data pattern written to the drive, the read speeds would vary but would be far less than when fresh, achieving averages of about 300-350MB/s instead. The other sides of the drive are elaborately “folded” together and the drive is a standard 7mm “thin” form factor. That is very disappointing performance, as even the read speed was a pedestrian 223MB/s on the test platform.
