IOMETER random 4k random read/write is based on an 8GB partition. 2.Some of the listed capacity on a Flash storage device is used for formatting and other functions and thus is not available for data storage. As such, the actual available capacity for data storage is less than what is listed on the products. Review: The Perfect, Budget-Friendly Upgrade for Older Devices - I bought the Kingston A400 SSD specifically to upgrade the aging HDD in an old PS3, aiming for faster loading times and overall responsiveness. While the A400 might not be cutting-edge by today's blazing NVMe standards, it proves to be an absolutely excellent and incredibly cheap upgrade for older tech that still relies on 2.5-inch hard drives. The difference in an older system, like a PS3, is immediately noticeable. Game loading times are significantly reduced, and general system navigation feels much snappier compared to a traditional spinning hard drive. It truly breathes new life into devices that were once bottlenecked by slow storage. Beyond consoles, this SSD would also make for fast, cheap, and reliable storage for regular files if you need to replace a failing HDD in an older laptop or desktop, or even as a dedicated drive for less demanding applications. I've had no problems with reliability so far, and the speeds are exactly as expected for a SATA III SSD of this generation. Overall: If you're looking to provide a meaningful speed boost to an older laptop, desktop, or even a classic console like the PS3 that utilizes 2.5-inch drives, the Kingston A400 SSD is a superb choice. It offers fantastic value for money, reliable performance, and significantly improves the user experience without breaking the bank. Highly recommended for revitalizing older hardware. Review: Great price for performance and capacity - when on sale - This is a great ssd, and honestly my only regret is not buying a second. This is a great value ssd for its price, capacity and speed. Yes the speed may not be the fastest like others but for its speed its a lot. For gaming the speed is more than adequate for daily use and gaming. As this is my main drive for games I have a decent bit to say. The write speeds to begin with are amazing as with a a good internet speed of 250 I am having a stable 1 GB written to the disk in 20s. This makes installing games fast. In game the performance is also great with open world games loading with ease and games like cyberpunk in seconds with low wait times. For price, this is defiantly one of them products you wait to get best bang for buck. In my case I got 480 GB for 19.99 which is a great deal. Use in PS4 is adequate, but most importantly a significant one and I could easily recommend this as games have benefit crazy amounts with open world games and environments seeing the most improvements. But coming from hdd this is expected. A sizable improvement while still staying light on the wallet. So overall great, cheap product that is excellent for old pc and console but need to wait a bit before buying. ## Features - Fast start-up, loading and file transfers - More reliable and durable than a hard drive - Multiple capacities with space for applications or a hard drive replacement ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01N6JQS8C | | Best Sellers Rank | 4,471 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) 35 in Internal Solid State Drives | | Box Contents | asdfghjkl | | Brand Name | Kingston | | Cache Memory Installed Size | 6 | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Laptop, Desktop | | Customer Package Type | Standard Packaging | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (231,622) | | Data Transfer Rate | 500 Megabits Per Second | | Digital Storage Capacity | 120 GB | | Enclosure Material | Aluminium, Plastic | | Form Factor | 2.5-inch | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00740617261196, 05057454820536 | | Hard Disk Description | Solid State Drive | | Hard Disk Form Factor | 2.5 Inches | | Hard Disk Interface | Serial ATA | | Hard Disk Rotational Speed | 72 | | Hard-Drive Size | 120 GB | | Hardware Connectivity | SATA 6.0 Gb/s | | Installation Type | Internal Hard Drive | | Item Dimensions L x W x Thickness | 10L x 7W x 0.7Th centimetres | | Item Type Name | Kingston SSDNow A400 120GB SATA 3 Solid State Drive (SA400S37/120G) | | Item Weight | 41 g | | Manufacturer | Kingston | | Media Speed | 500 Megabytes Per Second | | Model Name | SA400S37/120G | | Model Number | SA400S37/120G | | Network Connectivity Technology | SATA, USB | | Number of Items | 1 | | Product Features | 2.5 Solid State Drive | | Product Warranty | 2 years | | Read Speed | 500 Megabytes Per Second | | Specific Uses For Product | Business, Gaming, Personal | | UPC | 619659091965 740617261196 692754113145 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Kingston - **Colour:** Black - **Compatible devices:** Laptop, Desktop - **Connectivity technology:** SATA, USB - **Digital storage capacity:** 120 GB - **Hard disk description:** Solid State Drive - **Hard disk form factor:** 2.5 Inches - **Hard disk interface:** Serial ATA - **Installation type:** Internal Hard Drive - **Special feature:** 2.5 Solid State Drive ## Images ![Kingston A400 SSD Internal Solid State Drive 2.5" SATA Rev 3.0, 120GB - SA400S37/120G - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81+9rUcRVTL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Perfect, Budget-Friendly Upgrade for Older Devices *by M***S on 4 July 2025* I bought the Kingston A400 SSD specifically to upgrade the aging HDD in an old PS3, aiming for faster loading times and overall responsiveness.
