These make for a great stepping stone into NVMe, while providing most consumers more than enough speed in comparison to SATA–while only spending a few dollars more. The two smaller models come so close to the price of SATA, while the 960GB option is still...
Affordable, Faster than the fastest SATA drives, Good read performance, No thermal throttling, 5-year warranty, Acronis True Image included
Small SLC write cache of only 4 GB, Not as fast as higher-end NVMe drives, PCIe x2 interface limits read speeds slightly

Affordable upgrade from SATA, Five-year warranty and high TBW rating
Only PCIe x2 and a slow performer for NVMe, The same price as much faster competition at the time of this review
You'll get a nice boost in storage performance over SATA from this M.2 NVMe drive, but you can get about the twice the boost from similarly priced drives...
Inexpensive, Good performance for a PCIe x2 drive, Works great on various chipsets and doesn't need additional drivers, Runs cool
Random performance could be higher,
Kingston A1000 480GB NVMe SSD is clearly worth recommendation. It performs well, provides perfect stability and is compatible with various motherboards and chipsets. If we add also 5-year limited warranty and quite low price then it makes the A1000 really...
The SSD is of a magnitude faster than the mechanical hard drive in almost every way, Kingston's 480 GB A1000 SSD is much faster than any SATA-based SSD, NVMe does make a difference in saving time for gamers, 5-year warranty stand it out from the generic
Too expensive. The 480 GB A1000 is only $25 cheaper – or about 10% less expensive – than Kingston's top NVMe drive which is significantly faster, This has been quite an enjoyable exploration comparing our other six drives with the Kingston A1000 480 GB SS
We are giving the Kingston A1000 480 GB NVMe SSD our BTR “Editor's Choice” Award as it is significantly faster than SATA based SSDs in every single metric that we tested, and it even saves time in loading games. It is also tiny, easily installed, and it...
The Kingston A1000 PCIe NVMe 960GB drive is an entry-level PCIe NVMe solution. It doesn't sit on top the benchmark charts or have the best sustained write speeds that we have ever seen, but the performance numbers are on par with the very best SATA III SS...
The Kingston A1000 is an affordable NVMe drive and has potential for those looking to upgrade their system for light workloads without breaking the bank...

Kingston' sole purpose in marketing the A1000 NVMe PCIe 3.0 X2 SSD was to provide an entry-level low-cost solution which could provide significantly higher performance, while at the same time having equal if not better pricing than SATA 3 SSDs and HDDs in...
The NVMe protocol is designed to supercharge storage and take us beyond the limits of the old SATA bus. There are many products available that do just that, but the Kingston A1000 isn't one of them.It's disappointing to have the new lean NVMe command set...
