Kingston Digital Europe Co LLP, a flash memory affiliate of Kingston Technology Company, Inc., a world leader in memory products and technology solutions, has announced its new DC600M Enterprise SSD. DC600M is optimised for mixed-use workloads with excellent Quality of Service (QoS) to ensure latency and IOPS consistency to hit Service-level agreements.
DC600M is 6Gbps SATA 3.0 storage with 3D TLC NAND, suited for use in high-volume rack-mount servers. The drive includes hardware based on-board power loss protection via power loss capacitors to protect data against unexpected power failure reducing the risk of data loss, and ensures the drive successfully re-initialises on the next system power-up. With predictable low latencies over a wide range of read and write workloads DC600M is designed for system integrators, hyperscale data centers, and cloud service providers.
“Quality of Service in an enterprise SSD is critical as data centers and workloads demand stability and low latency for predictable storage performance levels to meet strict customer SLAs,” Tony Hollingsbee, SSD business manager, Kingston EMEA. “In addition, DC600M is an AES 256-bit Self Encrypting Drive making it the optimal data center storage solution when you combine its enterprise-class reliability and strict QoS requirements along with Kingston’s legendary sales support.”
The DC600M data center SSD is available in 480GB, 960GB, 1920GB, 3840GB, and 7680GB capacities. For more information visit www.kingston.com.
