Kingston 3.84TB Data Center DC500R Enterprise SSD Drive – 555MB/s

Description

Enterprise Data Centre SSD
Delivering on business demands for 24/7 uptime and reliability,
Kingston Enterprise SSDs offer highperforming storage that combines
predictable performance with rigorously tested reliability. Kingston’s
DC500 Series SSDs offer features that enable data centres to select the
most cost-effective SSD for their workload(s). Businesses require results
in order to deliver on products, solutions and service level agreements
(SLAs). Kingston’s DC500 Series SSDs are designed to deliver on these
expectations.

DC500R: Read-centric SSD
DC500R is a highly optimised SSD designed for read-centric
workloads, enabling data centres to select SSDs tailored for workloads
without overspending on more expensive write-intensive SSDs. It delivers
I/O speeds and response times (latency) that a data centre can deploy with
confidence to ensure high levels of performance in the working application
and downstream at the user interface. These are typically defined by
applications that require real-time results. Serving large amounts of data
and delivering responsive results from a variety of databases and
web-based applications can leverage the receptive performance of the
DC500R.

End-to-end Protection
The DC500 series SSDs incorporate end-to-end data path protection to
help guarantee that all user data transferred into the SSD is protected
against transient errors. The DC500R and DC500M both include onboard
power-loss protection (PLP) via power capacitors and firmware. This
ensures data-in-flight is written to the NAND Flash memory in the event of
unexpected power loss. Additionally, PLP ensures that the drives’ mapping
table (FTL) is updated prior to power being removed from the drive. These
power loss safeguards reduce the chance of data loss and ensure that the
drive will successfully reinitialise on the next power-up of the system.

Quality of Service (QoS)
The DC500 series delivers on QoS with consistency, predictability of
latency (response time) and IOPS (IOs per Second) performance while
servicing balanced read and write workloads. Performance predictability is
essential for web hosting applications that must deliver on SLAs promised
to customers. The DC500 series efficiency produces the reliability needed
for web server applications that require read-centric drives or mixed-use
intensive workloads where uptime is mission critical.

Application use cases
Designed for service providers running a wide range of customer
applications including:
• Virtualisation
• High-speed databases
• High-bandwidth media streaming
• SQL server reporting services (SSRS)
• SAP
• BI, ERP, CRM, GL, OLAP, OLTP, ERM and EDW workloads
• Cloud service providers Both DC500R and DC500M feature
enterprise-class reliability with end-to-end data path protection, SMART
health monitoring and strong ECC. They are backed by legendary pre and
post-sales support along with a five-year limited warranty.
