Kingston's already proven itself to be pretty proud (http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/kingston-takes-a-bat-to-its-ssdnow-v-series-drive/) of its SSDNow V Series (http://www.engadget.com/tag/SsdnowV/) drives, but it's still found some room for improvement, with it now rolling out its second generation batch of drives in the line. Available in your choice of 30GB, 64GB and 128GG capacities, the new drives promise some improved performance (with PCMark HDD 2005 scores of between 18,900 and 20,117), and join the company's V+ drives (http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/25/kingstons-ssdnow-v-series-hits-512gb-capacity-adds-trim-suppo/) in adding support for Windows 7 TRIM (http://www.engadget.com/tag/trim) functionality, which should help maintain the speed of the drives over their lifespan. As before, you'll also be able to choose between either standalone unit or a bundled kit for desktops or laptops, with prices ranging from $109.99 to $377.
