Kingston's HyperX 3K SSD is positioned at a more affordable price level than its blue non-3K sibling. Our performance testing reveals surprising numbers: the drive actually ends up being faster than the regular HyperX.

Thanks for the review W1zzard.

May I ask what software did you use for the synthetic tests?

my own. i couldnt find a decent testing software that i could automate, so i rolled my own. it's not terribly complicated anyway.
