    @vasoo101: I do not recall the exact pricing but the MRP is about Rs 17K for the entire Hyperx SSD kit, do not have idea about the street pricing or the just the pricing for the SSD.

    Is that a 3gb or 6gb Sata cable?

    @yazoo178: SATA cable does not make any difference its the SATA interface… SATA 2 (3 Gb/sec interface) or SATA 3 (6 Gb/sec) ……. I installed this HyperX SSD on a SATA 3 based motherboard to get the best performance.

    @TheVeggiePau: In India I think so it is around Rs 15.5K if you want a more affordable option check out the Kingston V+ 200 series I just did a unboxing video for that its a little cheaper.

    I’ll go check out the video man , but i checked Amazon for the Kingston HyperX and it doesn’t ship to my current shipping address , Singapore . It’s cost pretty heavy but its worth it though .Most of the shops in Singapore here sells HDDs instead of SSDs . So do you have any suggestion to buy it online ?

    I have a normal HDD Drive and I don’t know if my motherboard supports this SSD drive. Does this ssd use the same cable as a normal hdd drive?

    All SSD use SATA cable just make sure if you motherboard supports SATA 2.0 interface if it does then they can work with SSD…….. the SATA cable is a thin flat cable that attaches to the HDD if its a flat fat cable then that means you are using the old type IDE cable…. see my SSD installation video for more info /watch?v=V3dAa_1LtmA
