Kingston Technology A400 480 GB 2,5 tuuman Serial ATA III TLC

480GB 2.5" TLC NAND SATA 3.0 SSD with compact dimensions 100.0 x 69.9 x 7.0mm. Kingston A400 improves system responsiveness with fast boot, application loading and file transfer speeds. Designed for desktop and notebook use, it offers higher performance and greater durability compared to mechanical hard drives while remaining cool, quiet and resistant to shock and vibration.

Advantages

Fast start-up, loading and file transfers thanks to solid-state flash memory and a modern controller. More reliable and durable than a hard drive because there are no moving parts, reducing the likelihood of mechanical failure. Multiple capacities available to provide space for applications or to replace an existing hard drive with a larger SSD.
