Kingston 960GB 2.5" SATA Data Centre SSD/Solid State Drive

Data Centre DC500 Enterprise Solid-State Drives (SSDs)

Kingston’s Data Centre 500 series (DC500R/DC500M) are high performance 6Gbps SATA SSD using the latest 3D TLC NAND designed for read-centric and mixed-use server workloads. They implement strict QoS requirements to ensure consistent random I/O performance as well as predictable latencies over a wide range of read and write workloads. On-board Power Loss Protection (PLP) with power capacitors ensures that data-in-flight is written to the NAND to reduce the likelihood of data corruption.

Server Virtualisation

Random I/O and high data access demands can be severely impacted by traditional mechanical hard drives in a virtualised host. Retrieving data and servicing enterprise applications and users have become limiting factors in overall system performance. Kingston solid-state drives (SSDs) are the ideal storage accelerator solution for virtualised workloads and contribute to a fundamental goal of virtualisation by doing more with less.

Cloud Computing

As cloud-based storage becomes increasingly popular, new demands are being placed on the storage infrastructure. A tiered storage model ensures that an organisation has the right data on the right tier to maximise not only cost but also performance. The fast-retrieving capabilities of SSDs enable cloud services to operate at peak efficiency for each type of data being processed.

IT Applications

Kingston’s SATA 3.0 Enterprise SSDs provide users with very fast data access for a wide variety of enterprise applications. They can be used as direct attached storage replacements for hard disk drives in a server or reside in external arrays to speed up storage-bound applications.
