KC1000 NVMe PCIe SSD

Exceptional performance for systems with NVMe support

Kingston’s KC1000 Solid-state Drive is a high-performance PCIe NVMe™ solution

that is over 2x faster than SATA-based SSDs and 40x faster than a 7200RPM hard-

disk drive

controller, this drive features 4 cores and 2x the DRAM to help power users blaze

through even the toughest projects with high-speed data transfers of up to

2700MB/s

KC1000 uses native OS drivers and is NVMe 1.2 compliant which allows users to

take full advantage of the high throughput, IOPS and low latency that is available

to systems that support NVMe. This protocol was designed specifically to support

Flash-based storage versus SATA which was developed for traditional spinning

disks. It removes performance bottlenecks and allows the system instant access to

the device once the SSD is installed.

. Using a PCIe Gen 3.0 x4 interface and an 8-channel Phison PS5007-E7

KC1000 is easily installed in either a standard M.2 or PCI Express socket using the

M.2 2280 or the half-height, half-length add-in card for greater design-in flexibility

when used by system builders. There is a range of capacities available from

240GB to 960GB

The SSD is desig ned for use in desktop a nd notebook compute r workloads, and is n ot intended for Serv er environments.

1 Based on “out- of-box perfor mance” using a SATA Rev 3.0 / PCIe 3.0 mothe rboard. Speed may v ary due

to host hardw are, software, an d usage. IOMETER Ra ndom 4K Read/Wri te is based on 8GB par tition.

2 Some of the li sted capacity o n a Flash storage device is us ed for formattin g and other functio ns and

thus is not avail able for data storage . As such, the actual av ailable capacit y for data storage is le ss than what is listed o n the products. Fo r more information, g o to Kingston’s Flash Memor y Guide at Kingsto n. com/ashguide.
