Kingston Introduces Entry-level NVMe PCIe SSD

·        A1000: Gen 3.0 x2 PCIe NVMe SSD for Notebooks & Desktops

·        Twice as Fast as SATA-based SSDs at Near-SATA Pricing

Kingston, a world leader in memory products and technology solutions, announced A1000 PCIe NVMe^™ SSD. The M.2 drive is Kingston’s first entry-level consumer-grade PCIe NVMe SSD utilizing 3D NAND. A1000 delivers twice the performance of SATA at near SATA pricing.

The single-sided M.2 2280 (22mm x 80mm) form factor makes A1000 ideal for notebooks and systems with limited space. The PCIe NVMe drive features a Gen 3.0 x2 interface, 4-channel Phison 5008 controller, and 3D NAND Flash. It delivers 2x the performance of SATA SSDs with read/write speeds¹ up to 1500MB/s and 1000MB/s giving it exceptional responsiveness and ultra-low latency.

As Kingston’s newest SSD for the entry-level PCIe NVMe market, A1000 is designed with 3D NAND Flash memory. It is more reliable and durable than a hard drive, and doubles the performance of a SATA SSD, providing consumers the benefit of PCIe performance at about the same price as SATA. Consumers can replace a hard drive or slower SSD with A1000 and have the storage needed for applications, videos, photos and more.

A1000 is available in 240GB, 480GB and 960GB² capacities and is backed by a limited five-year warranty, free technical support and legendary Kingston reliability.
