Died in under 6 months

Kingston SSDNow V300 Series 2.5" 120GB SATA III Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) SV300S37A/120G
Kingston SSDNow V300 Series 2.5" 120GB SATA III Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) SV300S37A/120G

Pros: Fast / easy to install

Cons: Short life span -- this drive died unexpectedly all of a sudden one morning in the middle of use. Cannot boot up at all. Just goes to black screen. I ran the diagnostics on the laptop and it came up with the error code that the HDD self test could not complete. Normal start up doesn't work, safe boot with networking doesn't work, safe boot with command prompt works maybe one out of every twenty tries.

Overall Review: Not good...

So so
