Kingston Technology Corp. SEDC2000BM8/240G enterprise SSD 240GB M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe

Kingston DC2000B 240GB M.2 2280 NVMe SSD

This enterprise-class solid-state drive uses a PCIe 4.0 x4 interface and 112-layer 3D TLC NAND to deliver sequential read speeds up to 4500 MBps and sequential write speeds up to 400 MBps. Random read performance reaches 260,000 IOPS with random write at 18,000 IOPS. An integrated aluminum heatsink and hardware-based power loss protection support consistent operation in server environments.

Suited for rack-mount server boot drives

The 0.4 DWPD endurance rating and 175 TBW limit make this drive appropriate for read-intensive workloads such as OS boot, logging or application caching. Builders who need higher write endurance for databases, content creation or heavy mixed workloads should look at drives with a higher DWPD rating and larger TBW allocation.

0.4 DWPD endurance rating

This single figure defines the drive's write lifetime: 0.4 drive writes per day over the warranty period. If your workload exceeds this write intensity, the drive will reach its endurance limit sooner; if your workload is predominantly reads with light writes, the rating provides adequate headroom.
