Kingston DC3000ME 3.84TB U.2 PCIe 5.0 NVMe SSD

The Kingston DC3000ME is an enterprise-class solid-state drive utilizing the high-bandwidth PCIe 5.0 NVMe interface across four lanes. This configuration allows the drive to achieve sequential read speeds up to 14,000 MB/s and sequential write speeds of 5,800 MB/s. It is specifically engineered to handle intensive data center workloads, including AI processing, High-Performance Computing (HPC), and online transaction processing (OLTP). The integration of 3D eTLC NAND flash technology ensures high I/O consistency and endurance for mission-critical applications.

Reliability is a key functional focus, evidenced by a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) rating of 2 million hours. The drive sustains an endurance rating of 1 Drive Write Per Day (DWPD) over five years, suited for demanding mixed-use enterprise environments. For data integrity, the unit includes enhanced power loss protection (PLP) and comprehensive End-to-End Data Protection. Its U.2 form factor (100.5 mm x 69.8 mm x 14.8 mm) provides compatibility with standardized server backplanes requiring hot-swap capability.
