Closer Look

Kingston HyperX FURY 240GB came to our redation in a standard retail package so you can expect to receive the same product in any good store with computer components.

On the from side of the package we can see general specification – maximum transfers of 500MB/s read and write, SSD interface and capacity which is of course 240GB. Transparent part of the package is showing us what we can expect to find inside so HyperX FURY SSD. On the front side there is also 3 year warranty and free technical support logo.

On the back side there is general description of the product with contact to support and once again info about three year warranty and free technical support. Of course we are counting there won’t be any issues with our brand new SSD.

Inside the package there is SSD, 7 mm to 9.5 mm adapter bracket and a HyperX logo sticker.

Bracket is especially handy when you wish to install 7 mm SSD in 9.5 mm drive bay.

Back of the SSD looks simple without any sticker. Only solid metal plate and couple of mounting holes. Nothing interesting but also nothing is really missing here.
