7.68 TB SATA enterprise drive

The Kingston DC600M is a 2.5 inch SATA III solid-state drive built for mixed-use data-centre workloads. It uses 3D TLC NAND and hardware-based power-loss protection to safeguard data during unexpected outages. The drive targets system integrators and cloud providers who need predictable latency in high-volume rack servers.

Steady mixed-use endurance

Rated at one drive write per day, the SSD delivers 14,016 TBW over its lifetime with an MTBF of two million hours. Sequential throughput reaches 560 MBps read and 530 MBps write while random performance holds at 94,000 read IOPS and 34,000 write IOPS. Read latency stays below 130 µs and write latency below 70 µs for consistent quality of service.

Upgrade from lower-capacity SATA SSDs

The 7.68 TB capacity replaces multiple smaller drives in storage arrays, reducing slot count and cabling. Power draw averages 1.45 W active with peaks of 1.6 W read and 3.6 W write, easing thermal budgets in dense chassis. The jump makes sense when a single high-capacity device simplifies RAID layouts and meets SLA targets.

Questions about this item

How much power does the 7.68TB DC600M draw when running continuously in a server?

Idle power is 1.30W, average active power is 1.45W, with maximum read at 1.6W and maximum write at 3.6W.

What host interface and form factor must my server provide for this 2.5-inch SATA SSD?

The drive requires a standard 2.5-inch SATA III (6Gbps) hot-plug bay with SATA data and power connectors.

Will the 560 MBps sequential read speed saturate an older 3Gbps SATA backplane I still use?

The drive operates at SATA III 6Gbps but is backward compatible; on a 3Gbps link it will be limited to roughly half the rated throughput.
