Kingston SSDNow V+ 256 GB

This is a 256GB 2.5" SSD on the SATA interface. Sequential throughput tops out at 550 MB/s reads and 520 MB/s writes. At roughly $0.19 per gigabyte it sits in the budget tier. SATA throughput caps near 550 MB/s — fine for game libraries and backups, slower for heavy scratch work.
