Kingstone’s new PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD delivers best-in-class performance for desktop PCs and laptops. It is called Kingston KC3000
Kingston, the world’s leading independent memory maker, today announced the launch of its KC3000 Next Generation PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD for desktop and laptop PCs. The KC3000 SSD offers superior performance thanks to the controller NVMe 4×4 the latest generation and 3D TLC NAND ideal for advanced users who demand the fastest speeds available on the market.
By leveraging Gen4 technology, KC3000 achieves a speed of 7.0000 MB / s read and 7,000 MB / s write, with blazingly fast performance and full capacity that matters up to 4096 GB for optimal storage. Users can handle demanding workloads and achieve better performance with software applications such as the 3D rendering and 4K + content creation upgrading system storage.
Kingston KC3000: the next generation SSD
The KC3000 is made with a high density 3D TLC NAND which is embedded in the format M.2 2280 which is the industry standard, to store even more content and allow users to take advantage of PCIe 4.0 speeds. With its unique combination of performance and strength, the KC3000 is reinforced with a aluminum and graphene heat sink low profile to effectively disperse heat and keep the unit cool during intensive workloads. Tony Hollingsbee, SSD Business Manager at Kingston EMEA, said:
With the rise of data-intensive applications, consumers demand high-performance, high-capacity solutions. With KC3000 we have used next generation PCIe 4.0 technology and are able to provide fast and reliable storage to meet the needs of a wide range of consumers in the market.
