Description
Kingston's Data Center 500 Series of solid-state drives are high performance 6Gbps SATA SSDs using the advanced 3D TLC NAND, designed for Mixed-Use server workloads. They implement Kingston's strict QoS requirements to ensure predictable random I/O performance as well as predictable low latencies over a wide range of read and write workloads. They can increase productivities within AI, machine learning, big data analytics, cloud computing, software-defined storage, operational databases (ODB), database applications, and data warehousing.
DC500M is powerful SSD designed for mixed-use workload applications where the demand has a more balanced mix of read and write operations. It delivers greater write endurance over a wide range of workloads all while maintaining the strict performance consistency requirements designed into all of Kingston's Data center SSDs. Data centers hosting databases and various web-based applications can leverage the predictable I/O and latency performance while controlling infrastructure costs.

Quality of Service (QoS)
The DC500 Series delivers on QoS with consistency, predictability of latency 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 SLA's promised to customers. The DC500 Series efficiency produces the reliability for web server applications requiring mixed-use intensive workloads where uptime is mission critical. -
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 DC500M includes onboard (PLP) power loss protection 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 for data loss and ensure that the drive will successfully reinitialize on the next power-up of the system. -
Data integrity protection
It provides EECC protection with advanced read/disturb management safeguards against data corruption for end-to-end data protection. -
Optimized for mixed-use applications
An exceptional balance of consistent I/O delivery and high read and write IOPS performance allows to manage a wide range of transactional workloads. -
Reduce application latencies
Data center's hosting databases and various web-based applications can leverage the predictable I/O and latency performance.
