Data Center DC500 Enterprise Solid-State Drives (SSDs) Kingston’s Data Center 500 series (DC500R/DC500M) are high performance 6Gbps SATA SSD using the latest 3D TLC NAND designed for read-centric and mixed-use server workloads. They implement strict QoS requirements to ensure consistent random I/O performance as well as predictable latencies over a wide range of read and write workloads. On-board Power Loss Protection (PLP) with power capacitors ensures that data-in-flight is written to the NAND to reduce the likelihood of data corruption. Features: • Predictable random I/O performance and latencies over a wide range of workloads • Read-centric design for performance in high read intensive workloads (DC500R) • Mixed-use design for balanced performance in high read/write intensive workloads (DC500M) • I/O Consistency and Low Latency • On-board (PLP) power loss. FEATURES/BENEFITS: • Optimised for read-intensive applications (DC500R) — The responsiveness that results from low latency and consistent I/O performance delivers the QoS that businesses need for demanding read-centric workloads. • Optimised for mixed-use applications (DC500M) — An exceptional balance of consistent I/O delivery and high read and write IOPS performance to manage a wide range of transactional workloads. • Reduce application latencies — Data centres that host databases and various web-based applications can leverage the predictable I/O and latency performance. • Data Integrity Protection — ECC protection with advanced read/disturb management safeguards against data corruption for end-to-end data protection. • On-board Power Loss Protection (PLP) — Reduce the possibility of data loss and/or corruption upon ungraceful power-failure via power capacitors and firmware.
