Review: One of the Best SSD Available in the market! (Review after 1 month) - Alright so I needed a SSD to make my Computer fast in terms of booting up and other storage purposes. I wanted the storage to be a little big so I chose the 480 GB variant and I got it for Rs. 3,999. So i would like to breakdown this review into Pros and Cons, but before that i would just say that this is the best SSD you could actually get for this price. Pros : 1. It will make your PC faster in the terms of booting up (Every SSD does this but as this was my first buying experience for the SSD, I think it was a good deal) 2. Data Transfer Speed is great 3. Heavy softwares will load fast on your PC 4. Extremely light weight Cons : 1. This con might not be a problem for everyone, but while installing it I needed two screws so as to fit in the SSD Case in my Circle Gaming Cabinet . In the packaging there were no screws provided to fit it up in the SSD Case, so I had to put the screw which was used in my previous HDD. I am not sure that do other companies provide screws in the SSD package but if they do then Kingston should do the same. At last I would just say that this is the best SSD you could actually get in Rs.3,999 . I hope this review helps you while buying this SSD. Thank you :) Have a nice day!

All Application are opening smoothly without struggle and fast data transfer, windows10 installation completed within 3-5mins(Just make sure you install OS on the SSD). The boot time went down from 150-180secs to 17-18secs while when you press the shutdown button it closes the system in 6secs.
