Disclaimers Based on 'out-of-box performance' using a SATA Rev. 3.0 motherboard. Speed may vary due to host hardware, software and usage. IOMETER Random 4k Random Read/Write is based on 8GB partition. Some of the listed capacity on a Flash storage device is used for formatting and other functions and thus is not available for data storage. As such, the actual available capacity for data storage is less than what is listed on the products. For more information, go to Kingston’s Flash Memory Guide at kingston.com/flashguide. Review: Recommended - Good product, fast and easily installed Review: Good Quality Performs Fast - Had some hesitation initially buying this Kingston A400 480 GB SSD ( 2.5 Inch ). Finally it arrived next day and used in a USB 3 Enclosure. Performs fast at consistent speed of around 105 MBs for large file transfers. Considering the price, this a great performance. The casing is metallic finish and feels good. Will recomend this for people loking for performance at affordable price. There will be more faster drives, but few seconds will not make that great difference. TIP: In USB Enclosure, right click properties - Policies -and enable Disk Caching to improve data transfer. It makes a very big difference. Just remember to click to Safely Remove drive option if this is enabled. ## Features - Fast start-up, loading and file transfers. - More reliable and durable than a hard drive - Multiple capacities with space for applications or a hard drive replacement ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01N0TQPQB | | Additional Features | Portable | | Best Sellers Rank | #5,605 in Computers ( See Top 100 in Computers ) #68 in Internal Solid State Drives | | Brand | Kingston | | Built-In Media | SSD Bare Drive | | Cache Memory Installed Size | 480 | | Color | Grey | | Compatible Devices | Desktop, Laptop | | Connectivity Technology | SATA | | Connectivity technology | SATA | | Customer Package Type | FFP | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 203,725 Reviews | | Data Transfer Rate | 450 Megabits Per Second | | Digital Storage Capacity | 480 GB | | Digital storage capacity | 480 GB | | Enclosure Material | Metal | | Form Factor | 2.5-inch | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00740617263442 | | Hard Disk Description | Solid State Drive | | Hard Disk Form Factor | 2.5 Inches | | Hard Disk Interface | Serial ATA | | Hard disk form factor | 2.5 Inches | | Hard disk interface | Serial ATA | | Hard-Drive Size | 480 GB | | Hardware Connectivity | SATA 3.0 Gb/s | | Hardware Platform | PC, laptop | | Installation Type | Internal Hard Drive | | Item Dimensions L x W x Thickness | 10L x 7W x 0.7Th centimeters | | Item Type Name | Solid State Drive | | Item Weight | 41 g | | Manufacturer | Kingston | | Media Speed | 500 | | Mfr Part Number | SA400S37/480G | | Model Name | A400-Serie | | Model Number | SA400S37/480G | | Number of Items | 1 | | Read Speed | 500 Megabytes Per Second | | Special features | Portable | | Specific Uses For Product | business, personal | | UPC | 740617263442 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | 1 years warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Kingston - **Colour:** Grey - **Compatible devices:** Desktop, Laptop - **Connectivity technology:** SATA - **Digital storage capacity:** 480 GB - **Hard disk description:** Solid State Drive - **Hard disk form factor:** 2.5 Inches - **Hard disk interface:** Serial ATA - **Installation type:** Internal Hard Drive - **Special features:** Portable ## Images ![Kingston 480GB A400 SATA3 2.5 Inch Internal SSD Upto 500MB/s Read, 450MB/s Write - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81+9rUcRVTL.jpg) ![Kingston 480GB A400 SATA3 2.5 Inch Internal SSD Upto 500MB/s Read, 450MB/s Write - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81M9v7F5+VL.jpg) ![Kingston 480GB A400 SATA3 2.5 Inch Internal SSD Upto 500MB/s Read, 450MB/s Write - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71tjtvJftaL.jpg) ![Kingston 480GB A400 SATA3 2.5 Inch Internal SSD Upto 500MB/s Read, 450MB/s Write - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61++NyRK+8L.jpg) ![Kingston 480GB A400 SATA3 2.5 Inch Internal SSD Upto 500MB/s Read, 450MB/s Write - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51BSkGfKaGL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does it come with cloning software? pny ssd comes with one. so i want to make sure if it does?** A: Hey Vineet Chawla, The Kingston A400 series SSD does not include drive cloning software or SATA cables. It is intended for users who refer to use their existing cloning tools and hardware with the SSD. If you do require cloning software, you may want to look into a Windows PC based application titled "Reflect" by Macrium, or Carbon Copy for Mac computers. Either application is available free to download from the internet. Thank you! - Chris @KingstonTechnology **Q: i have a toshiba satellite with serial ata-150 interface. will SATA-3 interface drives work?** A: Hello Dave, SATA 3.0 (6Gb/s) A400 series SSD by design is compatible with legacy SATA interface. SA400S37/120G will work fine in the older Toshiba Satellite, although not performing up to the advertised SSD speeds due to host system limitations, nonetheless A400 will outperform original hard disk drive to help enhance the system overall performance. A400 should physically fit the notebook internal drive bay using existing mounting hardware. PC will automatically detect the new SSD upon power up. Fresh install operation system and applications from original installation CD on the SSD as you would on standard disk drives. Thank you!-Kai @ Kingston TS **Q: will this fit a toshiba satellite 2 in 1 laptop? who will be doing the installation and data transfer?** A: Hello Ae, Toshiba released multiple generations Satellite 2-in-1 laptop that supported different internal data storage devices and upgrade possibility. Please provide exact Satellite model number or laptop manufacturer part number found on system underside to help determine system hardware configuration and recommended upgrades. Kingston A400 series SSD shipped with drive only without data migration software. End user or professional computer technician is responsible to obtain suitable software to transfer data. It is possible to arrange professional computer services thru Amazon to carry out SSD installation and data transfer. Check Amazon "Get Professional Installation Service" for more details. Thank you! **Q: Will this work with a mid-2009 macbook?** A: Linda, Apple has released multiple models MacBook mid-2009 computers that based on legacy Serial-ATA (SATA) data storage interface by today's standards. Kingston SATA-3 standard A400 SSD is backward compatible with older technology and works well in the older MacBook. Keep in mind that computer would not take full advantage of the A400 higher performance due to system hardware limitation. It may be possible to look up SSD installation reference online if you provide exact MacBook model number or manufacturer part number. Thank you. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Recommended *by A***D on 16 June 2026* Good product, fast and easily installed ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Quality Performs Fast *by S***N on 29 July 2021* Had some hesitation initially buying this Kingston A400 480 GB SSD ( 2.5 Inch ).
