Kingston KC3000 PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD - High-performance storage for desktop and laptop PCs -SKC3000D/2048G, Solid State Drive

Product Information

Compact M.2 design fits easily into small-form-factor (SFF) systems, desktops and laptop PCs. Low-profile graphene aluminium heat spreader. In short, we believe that this is the world's best way to test an SSDs gaming prowess and accurately compare it against competing SSDs. The 3DMark SSD Gaming Test measures and scores the following: The Kingston KC3000 looks great on paper, but how does it really perform? I ran a bunch of tests using an ABS Challenger (ALI589) with Intel B560 chipset on a Gigabyte DS3H motherboard, 16GB of dual-channel DDR4 RAM, and 11th Gen Intel Core i5-11400F CPU. Recording a 1080p gameplay video at 60 FPS with OBS (Open Broadcaster Software) while playing Overwatch. Although it didn't quite match its rated sequential read and write speeds in our tests, the Kingston KC3000 proved to be a speedy PCI Express 4 NVMe internal drive. It generally did well in our benchmarks—particularly in PCMark 10, which measures a drive's speed in everyday tasks such as loading different programs—though poorly in the AS-SSD benchmarks that involve transferring folders of small files.

Berdasarkan “performa aktual” menggunakan motherboard PCIe 4.0. Kecepatan dapat bervariasi tergantung perangkat keras, perangkat lunak, dan penggunaan. Kingston includes a key for Acronis True Image HD cloning software to make the transition from your old drive to the KC3000 just a bit easier. You also have access to Kingston's SSD Manager software so you can monitor drive health, status reports, secure data deletion, and more. These are optional features; the drive can be physically installed and initialized through Windows in just a few minutes without any extra software required. This SSD is designed for use in desktop and notebook computer workloads and is not intended for Server environments.

UL's newest 3DMark SSD Gaming Test is the most comprehensive SSD gaming test ever devised. We consider it superior to testing against games themselves because, as a trace, it is much more consistent than variations that will occur between runs on the actual game itself. This test is in fact the same as running the actual game, just without the inconsistencies inherent to application testing. The only test where the KC3000 fell marginally off the pace was in our 450GB sustained write—something most users won’t do very often, if ever. 3 minutes and 36 seconds is still a very fast time. We put the KC3000 through our usual suite of internal solid-state drive benchmarks, comprising Crystal DiskMark 6.0, PCMark 10 Storage, and AS-SSD. Crystal DiskMark's sequential speed tests provide a traditional measure of drive throughput, simulating best-case, straight-line transfers of large files.

Kingston 1TB (1024GB) KC3000 SSD M.2 (2280), NVMe, PCIe 4.0

Based on “out-of-box performance” using a PCIe 4.0 motherboard. Speed may vary due to host hardware, software and usage. SSD ini didesain untuk penggunaan beban kerja komputer di desktop dan notebook, tidak dimaksudkan untuk lingkungan Server. The "terabytes written" spec is a manufacturer's estimate of how much data can be written to a drive before some cells begin to fail and get taken out of service. (TBW tends to scale 1:1 with capacity, and that's true with the KC3000.) Kingston's warranty for the KC3000 is good for five years or until you hit the rated TBW figure in data writes, whichever comes first. https://www.tomshardware.com/features/upgrading-your-laptop-with-pcie-40-storage-which-ssd-is-the-best Sebagian kapasitas yang tercantum pada perangkat penyimpanan Flash digunakan untuk pemformatan dan fungsi lainnya sehingga tidak tersedia untuk penyimpanan data. Dengan demikian, kapasitas sebenarnya yang tersedia untuk penyimpanan data akan kurang dari yang tercantum pada produk. Untuk informasi lebih lanjut, baca Panduan Memori Flash Kingston.The PCIe 3 tests utilize Windows 10 64-bit running on a Core i7-5820K/Asus X99 Deluxe system with four 16GB Kingston 2666MHz DDR4 modules, a Zotac (Nvidia) GT 710 1GB x2 PCIe graphics card, and an Asmedia ASM3242 USB 3.2×2 card. It also contains a Gigabyte GC-Alpine Thunderbolt 3 card, and Softperfect Ramdisk 3.4.6 for the 48GB read and write tests. Where the Kingston KC3000 compromises is with the write endurance which is middling at best. 512GB capacity is good for 400 TB, with 1TB rated at 800TB, 2TB clear for 1,600 TB and 4TB confirmed for 3,200 TB. It’s not bad by any means, but it doesn’t quite go blow for blow with the capacity or above as some flagship models do. Performance There’s no shortage of affordable Gen 4.0 NVMe SSDs available in 2023 as more options than ever are rapidly declining in price.
