SSDs are now becoming far more common place in our gaming and work machines. The price tag might still be too high for many, but everyone can see the rediculous performance gains that can be made by moving to this flash based storage medium over tradi...
While I would have been ready to call this a bog standard SSD with middling performance, when you take into consideration the price tag it completely changes what the Kingston SSDNow is. It's not the boring looking performance drive it appears to be...

The V+100 96GB is Kingston’s latest SSD, a mid-range disk based on the excellent V+ 64GB (Labs, Shopper 273) but with a third larger capacity. The 100-series improves on the original V+ with an always-on garbage collection feature, which performs the f...

There's no such thing as a cheap solid state drive. But you do at least have the choice between merely pricey and downright punitive. The new Kingston SSDNow V+100 256GB falls into the former camp.At around £375 for 256GB of capacity, it's funny money...

We're big advocates of solid-state storage (SSD) here at HEXUS, and we've shown that the performance on offer from today's high-end models is nothing short of astonishing. But there's a catch; the bewildering speeds are traditionally accompanied with d...
When it comes to single-component upgrades, there's nothing quite like a fresh new slab of super-fast flash memory. Kingston's 96GB SSDNow V+100 might not be the quickest or most capacious SSD on the market, but its competitive pricing and strong mid-r...

It’s our opinion that the new SSD generation has definitely brought new improvements, as well as made us change our perspective from the narrow-minded sequential read/write evaluation. The prices of the new models are very close to those from the previous generation, so if you’re already decidedly for buying a new SSD now, you might as well...

Kingston has put out several models of SSD's now and their most recent release are is the SSDNOW V+100 series available in 64GB, 96GB, 128GB, 256GB and 512GB capacities. If this naming convention sounds familiar, you'd be correct as they had an earl...

I'm not sure what it is about SSD manufacturers and overly complicated product stacks. Kingston has no less than six different SSD brands in its lineup. The E Series, M Series, SSDNow V 100, SSDNow V+ 100, SSDNow V+ 100E and SSDNow V+ 180. The E and M...

Kingston has been selling SSDs since 2008. Their first drives were rebranded Intel X-25s, and since them we've also seen JMicron and Samsung controllers in their lineup. The SSDNow V+100 uses a Toshiba controller that's not entirely new - Kingston has...
The Kingston SSDNow V+100 is a tough sell. It does exceptionally well in sequential write performance and decently enough when it comes to reads. However, the drive is left behind in random write performance, which is important for a system drive. In i...

In every sense of the word, the 96GB Kingston SSDNow V+100 is a “midrange” SSD. Positioned as an entry-tier enterprise class drive in Kingston’s SSD catalog, the drive’s oddball 96GB capacity puts it squarely between the more common 64GB and 128GB sol...
