This SSD drive continues to please me each time I boot up or shut down. It allows me not quite enough time for a brief visit to the bathroom in the morning before it is awaiting my sign-in password. Its that quick.

Booting up & shutting down were not a real concern since switching to Windows 7. But now booting is FAST. I mean really fast. The system doesn't even have time to display the windows logo.

Essentially any activity that is disk speed dependent is much faster. How fast? One benchmarking program rates my fastest mechanic drive at 2.3 (most are 1.8); this drive is off the scales at 58.8. That's right, 58.8.

However, if an activity is constrained by other aspects of your system (such as graphics card or memory or another disk), you won't get much benefit.

The [explitive deleted]-ware bundled with this drive was from Acronis (one of the least competent software publishers I have ever had the dissatisfaction of working with). It failed on numerous tries to ready the disk, as did another program I use. But I had downloaded a full featured program called Reflect by Macrium (free) that successfully cloned my old hard disk. And in a short time after was good to go.

I consulted Kingston's tech support before purchase, and they were easy to reach & suggested the Reflect software.

My bundle came with a USB2 enclosure that facilitated cloning my old system disk. Alas, it is only USB 2.0 rather than 3, so the transfer isn't very fast.

Note that an SSD drive "wears out" thru successive erasing & re-writing. Thus, it is NOT advised as a data disk, or anything for which files are often changing. Since programs & windows files don't change often, it is suitable for a system disk.

Also, for those unaware, do NOT defragment an SSD drive, for exactly the reason just mentioned. The more things are written & erased, the sooner your drive will fail. And when it fails, it will be all-of-a-sudden and that-is-all-she-wrote.

I got to the last step and it would not install. I contacted customer support and the reply was "Unfortunately because this is not the full version of Acronis (included software) , some features are limited. Nonetheless there is another application that we have received good reviews on. With that said , please feel free to give Macrium Reflect a try." IE I can't help but maybe you can get help elsewhere. I am returning the product.

Comments about Kingston 240GB V300 SSD SATA Upgrade Bundle Kit with Adapter:

Installed in 2011 MacBook. 240 Gb is less than standard 320, so limits ability to carry large/multiple files. With upgrade speed is hugely increased, so will use as on-site input/output for photoshop and Lightroom. Also, quiet, fast, less battery use.

Comments about Kingston 240GB V300 SSD SATA Upgrade Bundle Kit with Adapter:

This package had all the extras -- external case, HDMI cable, adapters to fit 3.5" bay, installation/cloning software -- and with a 20% off coupon at Staples, it was a good deal. However, I could not get my cloned drive to boot -- I called Kingston support and they pointed me towards another software package for cloning (free download). After that, I was able to boot up with the new SSD drive. Performance was noticeably better. This drive could extend the life of your old PC for a while.

Comments about Kingston 240GB V300 SSD SATA Upgrade Bundle Kit with Adapter:

It was very easy to install. The software that was included cloned my old hard drive with no problems. My laptop is a 4 year old DELL and was very slow booting and took a very long time to do anything. I could tell that the hard drive was running all of the time. With the new SSD, it boots up in a few seconds and all of the applications now come up as soon as you click on them. Now I can wait until they get all of the problems with Windows 8 fixed before I buy a new Laptop. That may take take a few years. I am purchasing the same drive for my father-in-law today.

The SSD will not clone. I tried 3 times. It took 4 days and 2 hours of phone "support". Do not buy this unless you have a lot of extra time. This has been painful...
