The really crazy thing about computer hardware is that sometimes it takes awhile to get a product launched. That isn’t a knock against any vendor or the industry it is just how things go. We first saw this SSD during CES 2018 and thought it was one of the coolest things there. Not so much that was a HyperX SSD but rather a quality HyperX SSD with RGB LEDs. We talked about this drive and other RGB LED products on the Hardware Asylum Podcast Episode 92 so be sure to give it a listen.

In this review we will be looking at the HyperX Gaming Fury RGB SSD. This drive is the 480GB model and as the name suggests it features RGB lights. HyperX has been known to build some really amazing SSDs and is one of the only, if THE only, memory manufacturer to actually use a quality shell over the SSD board. As I have mentioned in the past HyperX builds their SSDs from cast and machined aluminum parts that not only give the drive plenty of curb appeal but the feeling of quality in your hand.
