Kingston DC500R 480GB 2.5" SATA SSD

The Kingston DC500R is a 480GB Solid State Drive designed specifically for enterprise and data center deployments demanding consistent, read-intensive performance. Utilizing the standard SATA 6 Gbit/s interface and a 2.5-inch form factor, this SSD integrates seamlessly into existing server infrastructure. It delivers sequential reading speeds up to 555 MB/s and sequential writing speeds up to 500 MB/s, optimized for workloads where data retrieval frequency is high.

This model features enhanced reliability measures crucial for sustained operation in high-availability environments. Included is Power Loss Protection (PLP), which automatically safeguards data integrity during unexpected power outages. The drive also supports comprehensive data security via AES 256-bit hardware encryption and end-to-end data protection across the transmission path.

Operational characteristics highlight consistent Input/Output Operations Per Second (IOPS), rated at 98,000 for random read operations and 12,000 for random writes. The DC500R maintains low latency profiles necessary for critical applications. It achieves an endurance rating of 438 TBW (Terabytes Written) and is specified for a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of 2 million hours.
