Our review sample is a retail drive so you can expect to get exactly the same from any store.

Below you can see a report from CrystalDiskInfo. Our drive is perfectly fine and what is worth to mention, its temperature is really low.

In the general specification of the drive, we won’t find anything special. It’s not hard to notice that the FURY RGB is an SSD for a wide group of gamers who care about good performance to price ratio. The FURY RGB is on the same performance shelf as whole FURY series but in addition, has RGB lighting. More about the performance we will tell on the next page of this review. Now let’s take a look at the SSD itself.

 

Product Photos and a Closer Look

The package is just a small box which contains all we need to be able to enjoy the FURY RGB SSD. Inside is RGB cable, license for cloning software,  a sticker with HyperX logo and of course the SSD.

The exterior of the SSD is pretty solid. It’s made of metal alloy with gaps for RGB Lighting. You can see a couple modes on the attached photos.

Of course, there are no issues to set any popular mode or static lighting. Everything can be managed using motherboard software from all counting manufacturers. The drive is connected via standard, 4-pin RGB cable so even if our motherboard

 

is not on the list then there is a high chance it will support the FURY RGB SSD.

Now it’s time to check the performance.
