Kingston launches KC400 solid-state drive

Mumbai, India, January 11, 2016: Kingston has announced KC400 solid-state drive, the newest addition to its SSDNow family. Designed for enterprise client workloads, KC400 SSD is 15-times faster than a hard-disk drive delivering consistent performance for both compressible and in compressible data, and improved responsiveness in performance-hungry applications.

KC400 SSD provides end-to-end data path protection and SmartECC to guard data plus SmartRefresh to protect against read errors. Data is rebuilt if there’s an error, and the drive is able to recover from an unexpected power shutdown, via firmware-controlled power loss management. The drive provides excellent data reliability due to the highly advanced Phison PS3110-S10 eight-channel controller and quad-core processor. KC400 will be available in 128GB, 256GB, 512GB and 1TB capacities.

“Our latest drive is designed to help business and power users speed up daily tasks and improve productivity,” said Nathan Su, Flash Memory Sales Director, APAC Region, Kingston. “Corporate customers should have full confidence in deploying the high-performance KC400 SSD in the workplace with all of the safeguards in place to combat unforeseen data loss.”
