Kingston A2000 Review

Packaging, Bundle & Closer Look
Kingston have wrapped their SSD in a hybrid style package, kind of like a blister package but much less frustrating. However, due to the way you need to open this, it’s much more difficult to re-use the package if you ever wished to sell the SSD at a later date, or return it under the warranty. Otherwise, the information provided on the front does its job just fine.


The reverse side is full of jargon that few people will ever read.


In terms of a bundle, there’s nothing included with the A2000, but that helps to keep the price down further, and let’s be honest, what could you really expect?
Being a single-sided drive, the SSD will be easier to cool and should be easier to fit into incredibly tight machines such as ultrabooks and gaming laptops where space is at a premium. M.2 motherboard cooling solutions which are becoming commonplace should also benefit from the single-sided approach too.


The other side isn’t all that interesting, unless you find the PCB traces fascinating.
