The Kingston A400 is a slightly lower-speed variant of the UV400 so, in theory the 240GB variant of the UV400 shall have slightly faster speeds compared to the A400 we’ve tested here. On the Mac side, we were able to get around 425.7 MBPS in Sequential Read & 438.8 MBPS in Sequential Write speeds on our AS SSD Benchmark test. So keeping the comparisons aside, for the Windows system the Kingston A400 pulls off 432.8 MBPS in Sequential Read & 313.7 MBPS in Sequential Write speeds on our CrystalDiskMark test.

We’ve tested the performance of similarly powered Windows & Mac systems so, whatever Eco System you use, you can get an idea about how the SSD performs on your ecosystem. Basically this is a simplified explanation to make it easier to understand the performance of the product (in this case the Kingston A400) pretty well. If you have gone through the the UV400 Review, you know what this section is about.

System DetailsĪ similarly powered MAC system has also been used for testing, just in case you're not using Windows 10 This comparison of the 240 Gig unit of the A400 with the 250 Gig variant of the 850 EVO shall be more reasonable. It’s SATA3 based & as it’s a 240GB variant this time, the comparison with the 250GB variant of the Samsung 850 EVO will make a lot more sense as SSD speeds increase with capacity & last time the 120 Gig variant of the UV400 was smaller in capacity & hence it was slower than it’s 240 Gig variant as well. PerformanceĪs I’ve mentioned previously, the Kingston A400 comes in a 2.5 inch form factor. We have ran our tests on the 240GB variant so, let’s move to the Performance section. Just like the UV400, we were again unable to find the 960 Gig variant on Amazon India but, the 120GB, 240GB & 480 GB variants are available. Oh, this time we have the 240 Gig variant of the A400. It has a comparatively lower price tag but, should be pretty close in terms of performance. Today we have an affordable version of that SSD called the Kingston A400. Here you can get Kingston A400 SSD Review. We recently reviewed the Kingston UV400 SSD which was the higher end variant of Kingston’s 400 series consumer line SSDs that come in a 2.5″ form factor. When we talk about building a new PC or upgrading an old one, SSD is a vital element for System Snappiness and SSDs is a virtual are so fast, that using a traditional Hard Drive seems to be like going backwards a couple of years.
