Kingston's Q500 solid-state drive dramatically improves the responsiveness of
your existing system with incredible boot, loading, and transfer times compared
to mechanical hard drives. Powered by a latest-gen controller for read and write
speeds up to 500MB/s and 450MB/s1, this SSD is 10x faster than a traditional hard
drive1 for higher performance, ultra-responsive multi-tasking, and an overall
faster system.
Also more reliable and durable than a hard drive, Q500 is built with Flash memory.
There are no moving parts, making it less likely to fail than a mechanical hard
drive. It's also cooler and quieter, and its shock and vibration resistance makes it
ideal for notebooks and other mobile computing devices.
Q500 is available in multiple capacities from 120GB-480GB2 to give you all the
space you need for applications, videos, photos and other important documents.
You can also replace your hard drive or a smaller SSD with a drive big enough
to hold all your files.
