Incredible Speeds Plus Rock Solid Reliability.
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 generation controller for read and write speeds up to 500MB/s and 450MB/s, this SSD is 10x faster than a traditional hard drive 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 to 1.92TB 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.
- 10x Faster than a Hard Drive — Fast start-up, loading, and file transfers, and with incredible read / write speeds the Q500 SSD will not only increase performance but can also be used to breathe new life into older systems.
- Rugged — More reliable and durable than a hard drive. The Q500 is shock and vibration resistant for rugged reliability when used in notebooks and other mobile computing devices.
- Multiple Capacities — Available in 120GB, 240GB, 480GB, 960GB and 1.92TB capacities, Q500 is designed to suit anyone’s needs.
- Ideal for Desktops and Notebooks — Q500 has a 7mm form factor to fit in a wider array of systems. It’s ideal for slimmer notebooks and in systems with limited available space.
