Old Geezer
5.0 out of 5 starsNice economy SSD.
December 13, 2015
I bought this economy SSD so that I would have a spare SSD. My roommate was finding her laptop (used only for travel) a little old and arthritic, even though we had maxed out the memory, so, I used this drive to replace a WD 2.5" 5400 rpm in her computer. Suddenly her laptop is no longer a travel only make do, but, with the SSD it is now the easy near equal of her desktop tower.

I used an Acronis USB to SATA adapter I had, and EasyGig IV that I have had for several years. In about 40 minutes the WD had been cloned onto the KingDian and about 15 minutes later a fully functional, much smoother operating laptop was ready to go. The cloning went without a hitch, the OS (Win7, 64 bit) has been operating flawlessly for about a week now. I am encouraged by a smart drive utility that tells me the disk is functioning smoothly, and is estimated to continue so until about 2024 (assuming certain drive parameters.)

I am very pleased with this drive, and intend to keep one or two of these around for grins and giggles. I will update should anything averse happen, but assuming nothing further, my December of 2015 review will stand.

2.0 out of 5 stars120-GB &128-GB KingDian Drives Dead In 2 Years
June 13, 2019
I nought 3 of these low-grade drives back in 2017, and the last one just died!
The 128-GB versions were installed into a Dell Desktop and a Gigabyte System,
the third one that just died was installed into a Dell Lattitude D620 Laptop.
2 Years and a 100% failure rate. No Way would I ever trust these SSD's nor would
I recommend them to anyone. Seriously - - - - - - - - - - - SSD's have dropped to the point
where you can buy a name brand drive like ADATA, Crucial, Kingston, SanDisk etc. for 5 bucks
more and you will get something that is many times more reliable, and will last.
You Have Been Warned.

Capacity: S280 480GBVerified Purchase
My XPS1330 was 10 yes old. It has. Boot time if 1 min 10 second in Ubuntu 18.04. I brought this one to revive my good old laptop, replaced Hd with this SSD, logged into BIOS, changed the boot sequence, changed SATA interface and installed Ubuntu 18.04 minimum features, boom now the boot time is 24 seconds or less. Impressive for a 10 year old laptop. I recommend this product if you are doing similar to what I did.

1.0 out of 5 starsWarranty? What warranty?
November 19, 2019
Capacity: S280 480GBVerified Purchase
I had one of these drives for 11 months before it died on me. The description says that there is a three year limited warranty, but there is no information on Amazon.com or the King Dian website on how to actually file a claim. After a few emails to the general information inbox for the company and no response, I'm left holding a dead drive with a supposed warranty, but no way to actually resolve my problem.

Hopefully they will get back to me after reading this with a more specific process for RMA, but until that happens I have to stick with a one-star review.

i don't understand why amazon has a star rating for battery life, it doesn't use batteries! it's an SSD!
with that out of the way! it does literally make your computer 15-20x faster! amazing quality and value.

The SSD came in a simple box with a data cord and sort of business card. No instructions were included. Just a reminder, my model had a 500 in it but the actual size is 480GB

October 14, 2016
Capacity: S280 480GBVerified Purchase
It makes my Windows 10 notebook computer run 50 times faster. It took three minutes to start with the old drive, and nor it takes 3 seconds. A great addition to any computer with a duel core or higher CPU that is fast enough to keep up with the drive.

I bought this as a dedicated SSD for star citizen and it works perfectly and is lightning fast in comparison to my old hard disk drive for the price of this and one cable I can't believe why anybody wouldn't do something as far as a solid state drive for a single game
