Kingston's upping the ante on its solid state drive series in pretty much all the ways that count. The SSDNow V+ (http://www.engadget.com/tag/SSDNowV/) line boasts a 512GB upper limit, twice the previous generation, with iterative options for 256GB, 128GB, and 64GB. Read / write speeds have more than doubled to 230MB/sec and 180MB/sec, respectively. Best of all, these suckers now support TRIM (http://www.engadget.com/tag/TRIM/). Prices range from as low as $268 for standalone 64GB an can go as high as $1968 for 512GB, with an extra $15 or so tacked on if you want the bundle instead -- still alluring, still not for the feint of funding, but the good news is, if you don't need Trim or the extra speed, the original SSDNow V series is available for much smaller dents on your wallet.Kingston's SSDNow V+ series hits 512GB capacity, adds Trim support (http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/25/kingstons-ssdnow-v-series-hits-512gb-capacity-adds-trim-suppo/) originally appeared on Engadget (http://www.engadget.com) on Mon, 25 Jan 2010 20:09:00 EST.
