Soporta TRIM, Tasa de escritura mayor que otros modelos Kingston, Genera escaso calor, No emite vibraciones o ruidos
Por ahora, sigue siendo el precio,
Somos conscientes que los discos SSD son maestros del rendimiento puro. Si lo miramos con cierta lógica, comparando datos, tampoco hay diferencias notables entre los diferentes modelos y marcas, por lo que podemos auspiciar un crecimiento del rendimien...
El pequeño V+ es un portento de prestaciones a la altura de su precio, también desorbitado y en la línea de todos sus competidores, sin duda este hardware es a mi parecer el futuro y para que se popularice solo falta que baje de precio y se...
