Kingston SSDNow V300 7mm 480GB 2.5" SATA 6 Gb/s Internal SSD

The Kingston SV300S37A/480G is a 2.5-inch solid-state drive that supplies 480GB of fast storage through a SATA 6 Gb/s interface. It is designed for anyone who wants to breathe new life into a computer that relies on a traditional hard drive.

With sequential read and write speeds that can reach 450 MB/s, the drive helps an operating system start in seconds and lets large applications open without the usual wait. Everyday tasks such as web browsing, document editing, and media playback feel noticeably smoother, while demanding work like photo or video editing benefits from quicker file transfers.

The drive has a 7 mm height and arrives with an adapter that lets it fit systems that expect a 9.5 mm drive bay. This makes it a straightforward upgrade for most laptops as well as desktops, including small form factor PCs and full-size towers. The SATA connection is backward compatible, so older motherboards that use earlier SATA revisions can still recognize the drive, though at their own top speed.

A design that has no moving parts gives the SSD better resistance to shock and vibration than a spinning hard drive. It also runs cool and silent, which can cut fan noise and lower internal temperatures. For travelers who carry a laptop from place to place, the extra durability is a welcome safeguard against bumps in transit.

Whether you are a student looking to speed up research projects, a creative professional dealing with large files, or a gamer who wants shorter level load times, this drive offers an affordable route to stronger overall system performance.
