Kingston recently announced a new PCIe 4.0 SSD, the KC3000. Offering read/write speeds of up to 7Gbps and storage capacities of up to 4TB, the KC3000 will be a worthy option for those looking for a fast-storage solution with space for everything they might need.

Featuring a Phison E18 Gen 4×4 NVMe controller and 3D TLC NAND, the Kingston KC3000 will come with either 512GB, 1TB, 2TB or 4TB of storage capacity.

All models come with a low-profile graphene aluminium heat spreader to dissipate the heat generated during its operation. Depending on the model, endurance varies between 400TBW and 3.2PBW, which should be enough for it to last many years under normal usage. MTBF is rated at 1.8M hours, and all drives are backed by a 5-year warranty with free technical support.
