Kingston SUV500-120G User Manual

UV500 SSD

An encrypted solution for every user.

Kingston’s UV500 family of solid-state drives dramatically improves the
responsiveness of your existing system with incredible boot, loading and transfer
times compared to mechanical hard drives. Powered by a Marvell 88SS1074
controller combined with 3D NAND Flash for read and write speeds up to
520MB/s and 500MB/s
better performance, ultra-responsive multi-tasking and an overall faster system.
UV500 provides end-to-end data protection, supports 256-bit AES hardware­based encryption and TCG Opal 2.0 security management solutions.

More reliable and durable than a hard drive, UV500 is built with NAND Flash
semiconductor memory. There are no moving parts, making it far less likely to fail
than a mechanical hard drive. It is also cooler and quieter, and its shock and vibration
resistance makes it ideal for notebooks and other mobile computing devices.
