Best 7mm HyperX drive yet, Looks and feels like a premium drive, Solid performance
Quite expensive for a "mid-range" SSD, Not far off the pricing of the Samsung 850 PRO which features 7 years more warranty

If it could be even more affordable
The Kingston HyperX Savage SSD delivers great performance that you can come to expect from a HyperX branded product, our 240GB model currently retails around RM389 or lower in some local PC retailers, which is rather affordable when you consider that thi...
