April 10, 2012 by Andrew Edney 0 Comments

Earlier today we told you that Kingston had announced their new HyperX 3K SSD, and we got to take a brief look at one today at the Gadget Show Live.

Powered by the second-generation SandForce SF-2281 processor and based on SATA Rev. 3.0 (6Gb/s) interface, Kingston HyperX 3K SSD is the ideal high-performance upgrade solution for budget-minded gamers, enthusiasts, multitaskers, overclockers and system builders.

HyperX 3K SSD loads games and applications faster, increases frames-per-second for an improved gaming experience and allows for quick transfers and edits of large media files. It has incredible sequential read/write throughputs of 555/510MB/s and max random R/W 85,000/74,000 IOPS. HyperX 3K SSD features SandForce DuraClass technology to provide best in class endurance and to maximize life span and durability under the most intensive environments.

Here is a short video we shot today at Gadget Show Live 2012 (apologies about the loud background noise):

Stay tuned for a full hands-on review later this week.
