Kingston HyperX 3K Na`Vi 240GB Review

Packaging & Closer Look

Rather than package their SSD in a large reinforced box as previous HyperX drives have been, Kingston have packaged the Na`Vi drive within a blister-pack. Whilst this does give us a good overview of the contents, it unfortunately also means a knife or pair of scissors are required to destroy the packaging.


Blister-pack packaging


The packaging consists of very few items. Infact the only included items are the instructions leaflet and a sticker.


Instructions and sticker


The Na`Vi drive retains similar characteristics to the original HyperX series, the notable difference is the black and yellow theme which coordinates with Na`Vi gaming team’s brand image.

The reverse features a specifications label detailing the capacity, interface and serial number for technical support.

Inside the Na`Vi SSD, Kingston have used the same components as with previous HyperX drives too. SandForce SF-2281 sits at the core and acts as the controller. Unfortunately the screws require specialist tools to remove and reveal the inner workings and we did not have these to hand.
