Kingston 128GB SSDNow V Series SATA II 2.5" Solid State Drive for $124.95 – EXP 2/17/2010

cheapskatLeave a comment

Buy.com has the Kingston 128GB SSDNow V Series SATA II 2.5″ Solid State Drive, model no. SNV425-S2/128GB, for $124.95 (362 – 162.05 – 75 MIR) with Free Shipping for a limited time. The $75 mail-in-rebate expires February 17, 2011.

Kingston’s second-generation SSDNow V Series drive help organizations of all sizes and consumers enhance the performance of computers with a Serial ATA (SATA) interface and thus extend their lifecycle.

Adding a solid-state drive to a desktop already using a standard hard disk drive is a smart and efficient way to upgrade. Transferring the operating system and applications from the HDD to the SSD allows the solidstate drive to be used as a bootable drive that takes full advantage of the speed of the Flash-based technology. The SSD and the HDD then co-exist to drive optimal performance in the upgraded desktop.

For notebooks, SSDNow drives are a perfect replacement for hard drives, resulting in faster, more reliable performance. Making this change will improve a notebook’s efficiency in a wide range of tasks, from booting up to running the most robust operating system and demanding applications.

SSDNow uses a standard SATA interface but, unlike a regular HDD, SSD is very rugged and built with no moving parts, making it ideal for power users and road warriors who push the limits of their notebooks. Other benefits include reduced power usage, less noise and less heat generation.

SSDNow V Series drives offer performance gains and power consumption reductions at a fraction of the cost of a new system. For added peace of mind, they’re backed by 24/7 tech support, a three-year warranty and legendary Kingston reliability.
