It seems like each week we have new SSDs hitting the market. That is a good thing, the more options we have for SSDs on the market, the lower the price tends to be. SSDS are still considerably more expensive than comparable hard drives today though.

Kingston has announced its latest SSD called the SSDNow V+. The SSD is designed for high performance with higher input and output operations per second and faster read and write speeds. The drive is a 2.5-inch form factor.

Kingston reports that the SSD will ship in 64GB, 128GB, and 256GB capacities. The sequential read speed is up to 220MB/sec and the write speed is up to 180MB/sec. The SSD is capable of random 4K read speeds of up to 6300 IOPS and 4K writes of up to 291 IOPS. The 64GB SSD is available now for $254 with the 128GB selling for $500 and the 256GB for $992 when they launch.
