Intel G2 controller BUT NO TRIM!, 21 Jan 2010
By A. Wiersch - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Kingston SSDNow V-Series Desktop Upgrade Kit - Solid state drive - 40 GB - internal - 2.5" - SATA-300 (Personal Computers)
Even though this uses a 2nd generation Intel controller, Kingston is now saying that the product has been discontinued in favor of newer offerings (like their 30GB value drives which will support TRIM and their V+ 2nd gen series which will also support TRIM). Very disappointed as I expected a TRIM update. Because of this, I'm knocking off 2 stars, otherwise this might be a great value SSD.
UPDATE: It seems this drive can be "hacked" with the Intel firmware to support TRIM.

I has no moving parts., 13 April 2010
By Mike "Mike" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Kingston SSDNow V-Series Desktop Upgrade Kit - Solid state drive - 40 GB - internal - 2.5" - SATA-300 (Personal Computers)
It has no moving parts. SSD, (Solid State Device), is all electronic. It is a 40 gig hard drive for the computer and seems to work great. I am running it on Ubuntu system. The system analysis of the drive as being larger than 40 gigs, but that is a problem with the Disk Usuage Analyzer. Essentially the hard drive works fine. I have had no trouble since the day of purchase. Please note that if placing this unit into a computer tower case that one should get the desktop adapter kit with the drive.

Pure awesomeness, 16 Mar 2010

For those still uncertain whether to jump on the SSD bandwagon or not; do it! Upgrading your processor and/or memory doesn't help your OS startup/shutdown times and running speed anywhere near this much.
