Order came quickly no problems. Everything fit and works as advertised. A do it yourself project done with no worries. A marked improvement in the computer speed. Highly recommend as I'm very pleased.
Purchased product to upgrade older notebook with smaller SSD. Little more than plug and play, just needed to re-install OS and files. Performance has been excellent, far surpassing outdated OEM drive.
Switched out old WD HDD's for new Kingston SSD's. I cannot believe the difference. I had a vision, but this change is the best thing i have ever done for this PC. AMAZING. Anyone who is not doing this is crazy. I stood on the sidelines for too long. Should have done this long ago. Absolutely insane the difference.
I am very happy that I bought the KC600 SSD 1024GB2.5" from Kingston ! Kingston is a well known brand with a high reputation company that I have trusted for a while. I have done a great amount time, searching internet just by "best SATA SSD", Kingston products shows up almost everywhere. I was looking for a SSD with SATA interface, balanced in its functionality, performance, reliability, and price. The product description of the KC600 says, "... , It comes in both 2.5" and mSATA form factors using SATA Rev 3.0 interface with backwards compatibility. The KC600 utilizes the latest 3D TLC NAND technology while supporting a full-security suite that includes AES 256-bit hardware encryption, TCG Opal, and eDrive. It features read/write speeds up to 550/520MB/s to efficiently store your data up to 2TB ". It also provides " limited 5-year warranty with free technical support ". Many other brands only provides " limited 2-year warranty ". I can see that Kingston has a very high reliability confidence for their products, Besides, many other brands SSD don't come with a hardware encryption available. The installation is very easy. Its performance is excellent. I was so happy with my KC600. You know what, 5 days later, I bought 3 more pieces of KC600 for my other systems.
This was the third SSD migration in 4 weeks. All using the same kit. Two kits were missing the accronis coupon, necessitating a call to support. While support resolved the issue, it was nice to find the required code in the box.
This upgrade was as good as could be expected.
5 stars (other. Two would be lower due to the missing code).
I purchased the SSD with upgrade kit. My laptop is Windows 10. Down load AcronisTrueImageOEM_5128.exe No Problem. When attempted to install the software, I immediately get the message "Acronis True Image OEM Installation Failed". A phone call to support revealed this is a well known problem that has been going on for weeks. The immediate fix or work around was an E-mail with a link to Macirum software product that was a trial version that permitted cloning. Their instruction for cloning were not easy to use especially going from a 256GB drive to a 512GB drive. I must have pushed the wrong button because clone failed and I cannot boot the drive or erase the 512GB Kinston disk. It seems I must purchase the full Acronis product to make my new Kingston disk useable
