Product Photos and Package

Blister type package the same as in most memory kits. Also in the similar way we can find basic info about specification or warranty. In this case we see that Kingston’s SSD has 3 year warranty and free technical support. There is also Na’Vi gaming team photo on the front side.

SSD itself looks really good. Yellow and black colors are quite unique for SSD and can match less standard PC themes. That agressive design perfectly fits to the gaming PCs. It’s also showing that limited edition is somehow special.

On the back side we can see label with product and serial numbers but also warranty sticker.

We can also see that drive has standard power and data SATA connectors.

HyperX 3K is 9.5mm thick so it won’t fit into ultrabooks. On the other hand ultrabooks are not designed for gaming.

In te package we can also find Getting Started short manual which is describing how to connect your brand new SSD.

As we see on the above photos, HyperX Limited Na’Vi Edition SSD is well designed product. Catchy colors are perfect for gaming computers and overall good looks should convince also other users who are not really into gaming.
