Review on πŸ’Ύ MS200 mSATA Kingston SSDNow 240GB Solid State Drive (SMS200S3/240G) by Chris Kirby

Revainrating 5 out of 5

In terms of value for money, this SSD is hard to beat!

Installed on my old Lenovo Y580 which worked with a 1TB hard drive. Most of my files have been moved from HDD to under 120GB in size (like on this SSD). I used free cloning software to transfer my operating system and reinstalled some of my old programs. The difference between day and night as you would expect. My boot time from full shutdown to Firefox starting went from about 90 seconds to about 20 seconds. From hibernation, a similar story: Firefox starts up in 15 seconds compared to 60 seconds on disk. Combine these improvements with the cost of this SSD over others, no problem!

Pros
  • availability
Cons
  • old
