The Kingston DC1000M U.2 NVMe SSD features high storage capacity and best-in-class enterprise performance. It offers a high-performance Gen 3.0 x4 PCIe NVMe interface that enables high throughput and low latency on standardized platforms. The SSD is designed to deliver up to 540k IOPS with random read performance and 3GB/s throughput. The DC1000M implements stringent QoS requirements to ensure predictable random IO performance and predictable latency over a wide range of workloads.

The U.2 form factor design (2.5", 15mm) is seamlessly deployable in latest generation servers and storage arrays using PCIe and U.2 backplanes. The SSD has "hot-plug" capability, making the challenges of maintainable PCIe storage a thing of the past.

It also offers enterprise-class features such as end-to-end data path protection, power failure protection (PLP), and telemetry monitoring for increased data center reliability. This is backed by Kingston's legendary pre- and post-sales support, and comes with a five-year warranty. Storage capacities* range from 960GB to 7.6TB.
