Hard Drive Kingston KC600 256 GB SSD

The Kingston KC600 is a SSD hard drive in 2.5" format designed to upgrade laptops and desktop PCs that use a SATA III interface, offering a clear improvement over traditional mechanical drives. With a capacity of 256 GB , it is suitable for the operating system, main applications and a selection of work or everyday files, providing a balance between space and performance. Its SATA III 6 Gbit/s interface supports read speeds of up to 550 MB/s (approx. 500 Mb/s indicated), significantly reducing system boot times and program loading, while backward compatibility with earlier SATA versions makes installation easier in older systems. The compact 7 mm design, with approximate dimensions of 10 x 7 x 0.7 cm and a weight of only 40 g , makes it especially suitable for ultrabooks, laptops and PC/Notebook where internal space is limited. It features 3D TLC NAND memory and an SMI SM2259 controller, a common combination in reliable general-purpose SSDs that ensures stable operation for office tasks, web browsing, multimedia and light professional software. Hardware encryption support with 256-bit AES helps protect stored data at drive level, useful in mobile work environments or systems handling sensitive information, provided it is used with appropriate software and configuration. Its operating temperature range of 0ºC to 70ºC ensures consistent performance in most typical home and professional conditions. With a black finish and standard 2.5" form factor, the Kingston KC600 256 GB SSD is a solid and efficient solution to improve overall system responsiveness in computers compatible with SATA connection.

It’s available in a bundle kit that provides everything you need for a smooth and easy desktop and notebook installation and upgrade. - Remarkable performance - Features the latest 3D TLC NAND technology- Supports a full security suite (TCG Opal, AES 256-bit, eDrive)- Available in range of full capacities* Based on “out-of-box performance” using a SATA Rev 3.0 motherboard. Speed may vary due to host hardware, software and usage. IOMETER random 4K read/write is based on 8GB partition.** Some of the listed capacity on a Flash storage device is used for formatting and other functions and is thus not available for data storage. As such, the actual available capacity for data storage is less than what is listed on the products. For more information, go to Kingston’s Flash Memory Guide at kingston.com/flashguide.
