Fountain
Valley, CA – April 13, 2015 – Kingston Digital, Inc.,
the Flash memory affiliate of Kingston Technology Company, Inc., the
independent world leader in memory products, today announced the 960GB KC310
solid-state drive, its largest business-class SSD. KC310 is a true HDD
replacement as its large capacity allows users to store more data and
applications. Powered by a Phison
S10 quad-core, eight-channel controller, KC310 provides unsurpassed
SATA Rev. 3.0 (6Gb/s) performance delivering high read/write speeds and
IOPS.
KC310 is an ideal
SSD for entry-level servers and datacenter hosting companies looking for
more storage. The drive provides end-to-end data protection through Advanced
SmartECC™ and Flash error code correction. Data can be rebuilt in
the event of an error allowing for extended NAND durability and
reliability. The addition of firmware-based power loss protection helps
maintain data integrity as data is constantly moved to NAND to minimize
the amount of time it stays in the cache.
"Kingston is
proud to add this drive to our line of business SSDs for users who want
or need nearly 1TB in storage,” said Ariel Perez, SSD business
manager, Kingston®. “Corporate customers looking to upgrade client
systems will also find KC310 ideal for entry-level servers with its
combination of read/write speeds, IOPS, high capacity and advanced data
protection."
In addition to the
KC310, Kingston also offers the KC300
series for corporate customers who require client management software to
centrally manage and set security policies for its SSDs. KC300 SSDs
support TCG
Opal 2.0, IEEE
1667 and Microsoft
eDrive, as well as feature advanced power management and
enterprise-grade S.M.A.R.T. attributes. KC300 SSDs utilize the
award-winning SandForce®
SF2281 Flash controller and range in capacity from 60GB to 480GB.
KC310 and KC300
SSDs are backed by a three-year warranty, free technical support and
legendary Kingston reliability. For more information visit www.kingston.com.
