Waxqabadka ee bartilmaameedyada iyo daaqadaha

Waxaan ku xirnay Kingston A400 SSD^{(Kingston A400 SSD)} kombiyuutar leh processor AMD Ryzen 5^{(AMD Ryzen 5)} 1600, ASUS ROG STRIX X370-F GAMING Motherboard, 16 GB RAM DDR4 oo ku socda 1600 MHz , oo uu sameeyay Corsair , iyo MSI NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 OC 6GB kaarka video. Waxaad ka arki kartaa faahfaahin dheeraad ah oo ku saabsan sawirka hoose, kaas oo wadaaga macluumaadka nidaamka faahfaahsan.

Kumbuyuutarku wuxuu lahaa Windows 10 Pro ayaa la rakibay, oo leh dhammaan cusbooneysiintii ugu dambeysay. Windows 10 wuxuu aqoonsaday darawalka iyada oo aan wax dhibaato ah la kulmin waxayna noo ogolaatay inaan isticmaalno. Sida aad hoos ku arki karto, booska kaydinta dhabta ah ee loo heli karo wadistayada 240 GB, waxay ahayd 223 GB.

Marka hore, waxaanu ku wareejinay faylka anagoo adeegsanayna Windows 10 . Fayl weyn oo 4GB ah ayaanu soo qaadnay oo ku koobiyaynay mid kale (ka qaalisan) SSD . Kingston A400 SSD wuxuu faylkaas ku qoray xawli ku dhow 160 MB/second sekand .

Kadibna isla faylkaas ayay ku akhriday xawli dhan 373 MB/second .

Waxaan sidoo kale isticmaalnay jaangooyooyin si aan u qiimeyno ballanqaadyada Kingston ee xawaaraha. App-kii ugu horreeyay ee bartilmaameedka ahaa ee aan ku orday waxa uu ahaa CrystalDiskMark , kaas oo fuliya imtixaanno badan oo loogu talagalay akhriska iyo qoraalka xogta, labadaba si isdaba joog ah iyo si aan kala sooc lahayn:

• Seq Q32T1 - Taxane^(Sequential) ( Cabbirka Block Size=128KiB ) Read/Writesafaf ^(Threads)badan^{(multi Queues)} iyo xadhig
• 4K Q8T8 - Random 4KiB Wax ku Read/Writebadan^{(multi Queues)} iyo xadhig^(Threads)
• 4K Q32T1 - Random 4KiB Wax ku ^{(Random 4KiB)} Read/Write ku qor safaf badan^{(multi Queues)} iyo xadhig^(Threads)
• 4K Q1T1 - Random 4KiB Wax ku ^{(Random 4KiB)} Read/Write ku qor safaf badan^{(multi Queues)} iyo xadhig^(Threads)

Xawaaraha lagu cabiray app-kan ayaa waxoogaa ka fiicnaa kuwii ay xayaysiisey Kingston , taas oo aad u wanaagsan.

Halbeegga labaad ee aan isticmaalnay waa DiskMark , kaas oo qiimeeya akhrinta iyo qorista labadaba oo si toos ah u xisaabiya celceliska xawaaraha aad hesho inta lagu jiro wareejinta faylka. App-kan waxa uu qoraa oo akhriyaa xogta xidhmooyinkeeda si loo go'aamiyo waxqabadka diskka oo u ogolaada isticmaalayaasha inay doortaan cabbirka xidhmooyinka, iyo sidoo kale tirada socodsiinta uu sameeyo. Markan waxaan helnay xawaare celcelis ahaan ka hooseeya kuwa ay xayeysiisay Kingston

Ugu dambeyntii, waxaan wadnay AS SSD Benchmark , taas oo la mid ah CrystalDiskMark ee imtixaanada ay sameyso. Halbeeggani waxa uu go'aamiyaa akhrinta iyo qorista isku xigxiga iyo randomka ee wadwadu, iyada oo cabbiraysa inta ay qaadanayso in la akhriyo iyo in la qoro fayl cabbirkiisu dhan yahay 1 GB. Waxaan helnay natiijooyin wanaagsan, laakiin sidoo kale waxay ka duwanaayeen waxa Kingston uu xayeysiiyo, iyo imtixaanada kale ee aan wadno.

• Users who need an affordable storage solution to speed up their computers
• Mobile users who need an SSD drive with low power consumption

Pros and cons

Here are the pluses we identified for Kingston A400:

• The price makes it a natural choice for all budget users
• The performance you get is respectable, enough to speed up your computer in a noticeable way
• Low power consumption

The only downside to consider is the fact that this SSD drive uses TLC NAND, which makes it less durable than SSDs with other types of NAND flash memory. It is not recommended for business environments and users who need durable storage solutions.

Verdict

Kingston A400 is a great choice for budget users. If you need to speed up your PC and ditch the slow HDD drive that you have, Kingston A400 SSD is a good choice that delivers noticeable speed improvements. It is not the fastest SSD drive that you can get, nor does it use the most durable type of flash memory, but it does feature a 3 years warranty, and it gives you respectable performance at a low price that is hard to beat.

Unboxing and hardware specifications

The packaging used for Kingston A400 SSD is small and simple. You get to see the model name, the capacity of the version that you purchased, and the SSD itself.

Kingston A400 comes in a 7mm form factor that is suitable both for laptops and desktop computers. This model is available in several storage capacities: 120 GB, 240 GB, 480 GB, and 960 GB. The speed of data transfers varies between these capacities, as follows:

• 120GB — up to 500MB/s Read and 320MB/s Write
• 240GB — up to 500MB/s Read and 350MB/s Write
• 480GB — up to 500MB/s Read and 450MB/s Write
• 960GB — up to 500MB/s Read and 450MB/s Write

We tested the 240 GB model that you see in the picture below. The case of the Kingston A400 is made of light plastic materials, and this SSD drive weighs only 1.4 ounces or 41 grams. Even though Kingston states that A400 is shock and vibration resistant, it feels somewhat fragile, and we would not want to test its stated ruggedness.

The interface used by this model is SATA Rev. 3.0. The controller used is named 2 Ch², and it is not found on other models of SSD drives. At least not at the time this review was written. Kingston A400 uses TLC NAND flash memory for storing data. It is the cheapest form of flash memory for storage drives, and it is less durable than other types that are used in more expensive drives. TLC NAND is not recommended for business environments and users who need durable storage that is used heavily, on a regular basis.

The advertised power consumption is 0.195W when the drive is idle and 0.279W under average usage conditions. The power consumption is on the low side, making this SSD a good choice for laptop users. The operating temperature can be anything from 32°F to 158°F or 0°C to 70°C.

Performance in benchmarks and Windows

We plugged the Kingston A400 SSD drive into a computer with an AMD Ryzen 5 1600 processor, an ASUS ROG STRIX X370-F GAMING motherboard, 16 GB of RAM DDR4 running at 1600 MHz, made by Corsair, and an MSI NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 OC 6GB video card. You can see more details about it in the screenshot below, which shares detailed system information.

The PC had Windows 10 Pro installed, with all the latest updates. Windows 10 recognized the drive without issues and allowed us to use it. As you can see below, the actual storage space available for our 240 GB drive, was 223 GB.

First, we transferred a file using Windows 10. We took a large 4GB file and copied it to another (more expensive) SSD. Kingston A400 SSD wrote that file at a speed of approximately 160 MB/second.

It then read the same file at a speed of approximately 373 MB/second.

We also used benchmarks to evaluate Kingston's promises for speed. The first benchmarking app that we ran was CrystalDiskMark, which executes several tests for reading and writing data, both sequentially and randomly:

• Seq Q32T1 - Sequential (Block Size=128KiB) Read/Write with multi Queues & Threads
• 4K Q8T8 - Random 4KiB Read/Write with multi Queues & Threads
• 4K Q32T1 - Random 4KiB Read/Write with multi Queues & Threads
• 4K Q1T1 - Random 4KiB Read/Write with multi Queues & Threads

The speeds measured with this app were slightly better than those advertised by Kingston, which is great.

The second benchmark that we used is DiskMark, which evaluates both read and write performance and automatically calculates the average speed you get during file transfers. This app writes and reads data packages to determine the disk's performance and lets users choose a size for the packages, as well as the number of runs it makes. This time we obtained lower average speeds than those advertised by Kingston.

Lastly, we ran the AS SSD Benchmark, which is similar to CrystalDiskMark in the tests it makes. This benchmark determines the sequential and random read and write performance of the drive, measuring how long it takes to read and to write a file with a size of 1 GB. We had good results, but they were also different from what Kingston advertises, and from other tests that we ran.
