Kingston Technology announces the availability of DC1000M, a new U.2 data center NVMe PCIe SSD. The Kingston DC1000M is designed to support a wide range of data-intensive enterprise workloads including Cloud computing, web hosting, high-performance computing (HPC), virtual infrastructures, artificial intelligence and deep learning applications. It joins the DC1000B NVMe bootdrive, VMware Ready DC500 series SATA SSDs and DC450R for the most complete range of superior enterprise-class data center storage solutions in the market.

“Mission critical services and Cloud-based applications depend not only on lightning-fast IOPS and bandwidth, but also on the consistency and predictability of the data being serviced.”

“DC1000M provides the stability and low latency for the evolving data center while powering the workloads that require one drive write per day (1 DWPD) endurance.”

Make the leap from SATA/SAS SSDs to NVMe for your data centers! Implementation is similar, but with much faster data rates and lower latency. The DC1000M offers a whole host of things including:

• high-storage capacity and best in-class enterprise performance
• high-performance Gen 3.0 x4 NVMe PCIe interface enabling high throughput and low latency on standardized platforms, delivering up to 540K IOPS of random read performance and over 3GB/s of throughput
• built to strict QoS requirements to ensure predictable random IO performance as well as predictable latencies over a wide range of server workloads

The widely accepted U.2 (2.5″) form factor design works seamlessly with the latest generation servers and storage arrays utilizing PCIe and U.2 backplanes. It’s hot pluggable which makes the challenges of serviceable PCIe storage an issue of the past. Additionally, the drive includes enterprise-class features such as end-to-end data path protection, power-loss protection (PLP) and telemetry monitoring for increased data center reliability. DC1000M is available in 960GB, 1.92TB, 3.84TB and 7.68TB capacities; and, is backed by a limited five-year warranty, free technical support and legendary Kingston reliability.
