Overview

A 512GB boot drive is the typical job for the Kingston KC3000 SKC3000S/512G. It holds an operating system and a working set of applications in an M.2 2280 package only 2.21 mm thick, weighing 7 g. That slim profile suits laptops as well as desktop motherboards.

Under the label sit a Phison E18 controller, 3D TLC NAND and a DRAM cache, linked to the host over PCIe 4.0 x4 with NVMe. Sequential reads reach 7000 MB/s and sequential writes 3900 MB/s. Random performance is listed as 450000 IOPS read and 900000 IOPS write. The endurance rating is 400 TBW, with MTBF of 2000000 hours.

Kingston aims this drive at client systems; it is not meant for server use. Fitting it needs a free M.2 2280 slot and nothing else: no drive bay, no data cable.

We offer it New or Refurbished, each with a choice of 1 year or 3 years of warranty.
