Kingston Technology KC1000 480GB M.2 PCI Express 3.0 - Solid State Drives

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*. Using a PCIe Gen 3.0 x4 interface and an 8-channel Phison PS5007-E7 controller, this drive features 8 cores and 2x the DRAM to help power users blaze through even the toughest projects with high-speed data transfers of up to 2500MB/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 provides the system with instant access to the device once the SSD is installed. 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 from240GB to 960GB**, and the KC1000 is backed by a limited five-year warranty*** and legendary Kingston support.

5. Manufacturer Part Numbers: Leading manufacturers such as Dell, HP, IBM, and Compaq may assign multiple identifiers to the same product, including Spare Part Numbers (Spare P/N#) or Field Replaceable Unit Numbers (FRU#). Items received may carry either designation and will be considered equivalent and fully compatible. For clarification, please contact our sales team.

6. Warranty Policy: All items are covered by a 30-day limited warranty, valid for replacement only in cases of DOA (Dead on Arrival), and must match the original part number. Certain storage devices may include an extended 90-day warranty—confirmation prior to purchase is recommended.
